I loved the 1984 "when they were in Iowa
"season and if the Sagal girls read any of this there should be a reunion of some kind as of this writing none of the cast to my knowledge has died. Donnelly,or Patricia I would watch the reunion if they could it for One Day At A Time why not Double Trouble.

Holy crap. I can't believe other people remember this one. It was one of my favorite shows growing up.
But back then, it seemed to me like it was on for more than one season. I suppose being that young, I was tricked into thinking the New York episodes were a different season.

My opinion: don't think it ever jumped.....this show had a cool concept with pretty girls...i think it lasted as long as it was supposed to...any more and it would have eventually jumped
I saw an episode of Super Sloppy Double Dare on the Nick GAS channel from 1989 in which Marc and Harvey traded in their host and announcer duties to become contestants. Marc and Harvey competed against each other (Marc wore the red uniform, while Harvey wore the blue one), because fans of the show wanted to see them get messy and sloppy. Guess who was the guest host in this episode? Actor/Comedian Jm J. Bullock. Marc's team came from behind to beat Harvey's team, 180 dollars to 130 dollars. The two young contestants on Marc and Harvey's teams kept the money that was won and split the prizes from the obstacle course, which was ran by Marc and Harvey. The funniest moment in this episode came during the obstacle course when Jm said while explaining one of the obstacles, "The fags are going to spill", instead of, The fiag is going to spew out". That comment had Marc and Harvey laughing deliriously. Marc and Harvey completed all eight obstacles in 57 seconds, but they missed two flags along the way. Filling in for Harvey at announcer were the shows' stage assistants Robin Marrella and Dave Shikar. Robin and Dave both did great jobs as guest announcers. But the ultimate match-up l would want to see would be Marc and Harvey versus J.D. Roth and Tiny from Fun House, the Double Dare knockoff that was also popular in 1989. And like Double Dare, I was also a huge Fun House fan. Double Dare Rocks.
I used to not like this show because I felt she was not a real representation of a Hispanic female but when my daughter started getting excited when it would come on it grew on me. you know this show is not for us it is for our children, and if you don't want them to watch it then turn it on to something else. there are many shows that you can watch with them that are as enjoyable. (like Barney :p or the Teletubbies) by the way i don't let her watch those because I don't like them and feel that they are STUPID.
This show rocked! C'mon!! Anyone remember the Dance Off Competition - The Mean Blond who was the professional dancer... Allison dances for Kate because Kate breaks her ankle - Best Episode! These girls were great! Could have done without the annoying guys in NYC and the weird Aunt with that Bear... that didn't make much sense... But great show
This show was awful. Writing - Bad. Acting - Bad. Physical appeal of the twins - Bad (C'mon, at least if you're gonna have twins, have 'em be hot! Don't have 'em built like 14 year old boys for Christ's sake!) This was just mindless crap. Nothing ever remotely clever. Just corny "jokes" and then que to the crappy laugh track. Sheesh!
Twin's dad: "What do you do for a living?" Boyfriend; "I hang out, I work out and I think!" Dad: "What do you think about?" Boy: "Where to hang out, where to work out!" I remember this and those two girls were very hot!
Greatest sitcom of the 80s! Loved the move to NY. Loved the whole fake family aspect....deserved at least a couple of seasons more.
This show came closest to jumping when they started in Iowa....not that I have anything against Iowa! The move to NY was great. The Christmas show, the movie show.......they were all great......and the two guys were great too. A shame this show ended so soon.
The twins were just getting better and better as the show continued. The move to NY was a very good one. Some really outstanding TV......the movie episode, the Christmas episode, the camping episode, the time Billy and ? go out on a date.....Good stuff. I only began to appreciate it when it was on USA long after cancellation. I am surprised Liz and Jean have not been more active in on screen work since then.
Moving to New York changed the show from being a patty Duke clone to being a couple of young woman stretch their wings show. One other poster mentioned that they thought the Ladies were secretly acting against type IE mean twin really goodie two shoes and vis a versa. Well truth is I remember reading an interview and the sisters Segal stated that the producers asked them to play the twin more unlike themselves. So that may have been showing through the performances.
