Growing Pains: The Seavers vs. the Cleavers (1986) Reviews

Member Rating:

Jason (Alan Thicke) and Maggie (Joanna Kerns) are shocked when the PTA turns down their offer to chaperone a school dance. Apparently, the head of the PTA thinks that the couple is too permissive for the job, but by the time daughter Carol (Tracey Gold) gets wind of the story, she is convinced that her mom and dad have been deemed thoroughly "unacceptable" as parents! Appearing as PTA president Mrs. Hinkley is none other than former Mousketeer and Beach-movie heroine Annette Funicello--a casting coup that passed by without any sort of publicity fanfare when this episode originally aired in 1986. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
