Television Revival

Empty Nest

“Empty Nest” was one of my favorite sitcoms from the early nineties. It was a “Golden Girls” spin-off, but when the show aired, I’m not sure I was even aware of that fact.

The seven seasons of this Emmy winning show followed the misadventures of Dr. Harry Weston (Richard Mulligan) and his two adult daughters, Barbara (Kristy McNichol) and Carol (Dinah Manoff). And let’s not forgot about their loveable dog, Dreyfuss and the scheming neighbor Charley (David Leisure)!

Empty Nest

I don’t remember any specific episodes, but I do remember that Richard Mulligan kept me coming back for more. At least, I’m not the only one who has a soft spot for “Empty Nest”. Televised Revolution has a humorous breakdown of the series. And see, even he says the plot points weren’t that memorable.
