Nothing screams the '80s like Charles in Charge, a featherweight but appealing vehicle for the budding dreamboat of Happy Days and Joanie Loves Chachi, Scott Baio. The premise: college guy moves into a household with three young children to work his way through school by being a male nanny (a manny?). Hilarity, of the '80s variety, ensues, with lots of double entendres, big hair and really bad clothes decisions (ever notice how often Charles wore two era emblems together, like suspenders with a tie, or gold neck chain with tie (not to mention the popular maroon sweater vest).
Still, Baio's boyish and earnest appeal surpassed his outfits, and managed to sustain the show through six seasons. The first season contains 22 episodes, highlighted by guest appearances by actors who'd become big later, including Meg Ryan and a truly baby-faced Matthew Perry. Bonus features include a featurette on "The Great '80s TV Flashback" (fun, though not quite up to the standards of, say, a VH1 special) and a bonus preview episode from season 2, when Charles moves in with a new family, the Powells. Baio was sweet as Charles, but really rocked decades later in Arrested Development as sleazy attorney Bob Loblaw. Say that three times, really fast. And now everybody, I'm not kidding: "Go! To! Bed!" --A.T. Hurley

I ran into this on Amazon while looking at old t.v. series that had come out on DVD. I added it to my Wish List and ended up getting it for my birthday. I was a little skeptical if I would still enjoy something like this, so many years later. I also couldn't quite remember any episodes, only that I enjoyed it as a kid. After the first episode my fiancée and I were hooked! She is younger than me, so I don't think she had ever seen the First Season. By the end of First Season, we were both looking ... Read More

I must say that I love this first season of Charles In Charge. The plots are good, the jokes are funny and the casts are adorable.
I just want to thank Universal for including the first episode of the second season or I would've hated myself for buying it when it's released in the future! The Powells are just plain boring, the jokes are not as funny and the plot has lost its edge.
Too bad the Pembrokes had to leave the show. I'm really going to miss them. I like the show but I ... Read More

For the diverse population that enjoyed "Charles in Charge" when first broadcast I am of the opinion the DVD will be a treat. A younger adult when the show first aired, I was surprised when, upon viewing it again in 2007, how it impacted me how much our culture has changed since "Charles in Charge" first aired...I guess the best way I can try to communicate what I felt/sensed was: "even in the 1980's were we this innocent" and my resounding response was "yes"...a time when theme songs were allowed to start, ...
