When you're a kid its called "growing pains". When you're an adult it's called "getting old". Mintguy

How does that have anything to do with the sitcom Growing Pains? Redfarmer 05:47, 27 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Edited the information about the theme song for the final season. Verified with Jeff Thacher of Rockapella that they did not perform that version. Jude86 16:36, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dream/not a dream

This article says that the 1989-90 season was retconned out of existence as a dream, but Kirk Cameron says that Cameron requested that the season be turned into a dream but his request wasn't granted. What's the truth? --Metropolitan90 06:52, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

It was not a dream. --Triviaa 13:46, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Boner Stabone

  • I don't think Boner Stabone should be merged into Growing Pains. We need to keep the main article free for wild, unhampered growth and the Boner Stabone page could be full of tons more quotes. i love that guy.--BonerJoe 21:26, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article Merger

I agree that Boner Stabone should be merged with the Growing Pains entry. The individual characters of the Seavers don't even have their own pages, and I don't think Boner is a strong enough minor character to merit its own entry. If anything, it should have a subcategory in Growing Pains but nothing more. --Angleterre 19:26, 14 July 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Article Merger

I absolutely agree that Boner Stabone should be merged with the Growing Pains entry. The only reason the name exists is because of Growing Pains. I mean would anyone know the guy's name if you just said "Boner" without explaining the guy from Growing Pains. No! Merge the two articles because they belong together. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.115.176.42 (talkcontribs) .

[edit] Boner's Merger

Merging Boner Stabone into the Growing Pains article was a good idea, but removing most of the information about Boner was not. Somebody needs to add more information on Boner in the Growing Pains page. (I have only watched a very few episodes myself and would be a poor candidate for this) Comrade Sephiroth

Very little useful information was lost. That Boner was the "clumsy friend of Mike" is perhaps the only thing that could be added, although I don't recall the clumsiness. That Koenig is Walter Koenig's son is covered in his own article, and the quotation was contextless and pointless. Powers 13:01, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Alissa Milano also appeared in one episode

i was watching last night one episode of Growing Pains and Alissa Milano was Mike's partner in a fast food restaurant, Mike was working to get some money, and Alissa Milano appeared young and with blonde hair. I think that episode is for the 1st or 2nd season. Sorry if my english is not perfect. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Roblahsen (talk • contribs) .

I think that episode had Olivia d'Abo, not Alissa Milano.- Triviaa 21:12, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
