Anyone watching THE GOLDBERGS?

[DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen]

Just typed out a post and lost it so forgive me if this posts twice

Anyone watching this fab series? Honestly I've not seen anything so funny in years, it makes me guffaw out loud even when I'm on my own

The episode where they go trouser shopping- it was like they had a camera when ds and I go shoppingin Primark

Love the whole 80's theme- fighting over the phone, all the tv shows,phones with great long cords, the HUGE video recorder- brilliant

I love it, it reminds me so much of my childhood. The school dances and neighbourhood teen romances are spot on. I get teary with every single episode, I'm crippled with 80s nostalgia.

At the start I wasn't sure about the actor who plays Adam, I thought I might find him annoying but I've really warmed to him, and I think his comic timing is great for a child.

Love it here also. Really good casting

[CurbsideProphet]

Just found this thread! I love The Goldbergs

[Tweezertastic]

Love it and once again I forgot it was on!

Bumping for the best show on TV at the moment. I have not laughed as much in ages at the "Van People" episode last week "Dear Lord, what did he do to that corn?", but the whole series is genius

[gingercat12]

I started calling DH Mr Goldberg occasionally

We watch an episode each day. It brightens up our day. I think we may show it to DS, who is a lot like Adam in that he has his own interests.

I read an interview with the actress who plays the mum and apparently a lot of these hideous bejewelled jumpers belong to the original mum? She'd kept them for years and now they're being used in the show! I'll see if I can find the interview...

Here's the interview

Thanks a lot. I loved the article. I did not remember her from Bridesmaids.

I'm crippled with 80s nostalgia.

True love watching it and reminiscing,

It's always a good sign when I can't decide which is my favourite character.

[MitzyLeFrouf]

'Who are you gonna telephone?'
'Ghostfellas!'

So after living Beverly initially I now LOVE the grandpa and Barry is so funny I actually cry laughing at some of the stuff he comes out with

When Adam ran grandpa over when he was dressed as a transformer - genius!!!

[Geoff0409]

The whole cast is genius. Barry rapping to Lainey and the line "I'll be the bangers in your mash" had us howling.

[susiedaisy]

Every time I try to think of which character I like the most I can't they are all so funny in their own way. We love this program in our house

Big Tasty

[turningvioletviolet]

this is my and dh's favourite programme - the highlight of each evening. Adore George Segal, and Bevvy and all her scmoochies. And last night, her genius Adam. We've all been there. Love the enormous Adam picture above the bed, flanked by Barry and Erica.

[gingercat12]

Today is sports day in school, I think we are going to watch the President's fitness test episode with DS

Being an Eastern European I never realised PE in the US was just as nuts, I thought they were just out to get me. Love Adam!

[HelenaDove]

I LOVE this show. Are E4 stupid making those comments? Surely they must realise that ppl who were kids in the 80s will be watching.

[LoisWilkersonsLastNerve]

Loved the New Kids on the Block episode, I've watched it three times Brilliant show.

[gingercat12]

Lois We are a bit behind, but DH found New Kids on the Block episode. So funny. Real Adam was quite tall and closer in age to Barry.
DS has just made an amazing Babby card. We'll never throw it away

[LoisWilkersonsLastNerve]

Its honestly the funniest thing I've seen in a long time, I'm laughing even reading this!
"its a constant numbness, yo!"
