Uncle Jesse's Girl

Joey Gladstone was an incredibly creepy character.

Becky and Jesse were a terrific match, as were Danny and Vickie.

 

Maybe Becky didn't do Betty Rubble so well, but if she could do a pretty good Olive Oil, she'd have made a nice compliment to his Popeye impersonation, which was spot-on.

 

Most of his impressions were great, which -- I'm sure -- is a big reason that show was so popular with the kids. Popeye and Bullwinkle were popular; his impressions of Pepe le Pew, the Tasmanian Devil, Daffy Duck and Elmer Fudd and the rest of the Looney Tunes, not to mention the Wizard of Oz, were awesome. He was really versatile. He was great comic relief and could play the sappy part when needed.

The episode with his father, the Colonel, is one of my favorites.

 

So were D.J. and Steve Hale -- his original name was Peters, though, like Jessie's went from Cochoran to Katsopolis, his change on the second appearance. They were the best match of all D.J.'s boyfriends, easily.

 

Almost as good as the Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello television pilot episode.

 

He could have made that show a can't-miss.

 

They have nothing on Kimmy Gibler and Duane.

"Whatever."

I did choke up when Steve returned for DJ's prom in the series finale. He really fucked up the whole college process, completely ignoring DJ (even buying her that school sweatshirt) and choosing a party school in Florida (Daytona Beach, if I'm not mistaken).

 

It was an awesome ending to the show. I was a little let down when Michelle didn't die at the end of the first part, but Steve's reappearance almost made up for it.

Duane can do Shakespeare like no one's business.

 

Grab the bag.

 

Do something.

 

Wow.

 

I'm worried I'm never gonna get laid again just reading that.
