"I've been waiting for you, Charles In Charge..."

We meet again at last.

The second season of Charles In Charge, the first with Nicole Eggert and the fictional Powell clan, is out on DVD today.

Can I watch Nicole knowing she goes on to get breast implants and date Corey Haim?

Can I stand to remember how naive I was, watching Charles pursue countless co-eds, not suspecting art was imitating life?

Can I watch Buddy Lembeck's sad descent from fun-loving sidekick to village idiot?

Then again, if I do get the DVDs, I can free up about a dozen tapes for current shows.

Your powers are weak, old man.

It could always be worse, Gerald. She could have dated Corey Feldman.

Which Corey was worse? A question for the ages.

Excellent question, Gerald. I've decided to conduct a little informal survey on my blog in an attempt to find out.

I say, succumb to your temptress and order that DVD. ... I'm sure there's still more to gain from watching those episodes a second, third and fourth time around (nuggets of wisdom lost and comedy missed during the first times you saw them).
