The '80s and '90s are Still Swingin' on Basic Cable
Oh, that's nice. 1990s teen phenoms Joey Lawrence and Melissa Joan Hart are set to star in a sitcom pilot for ABC Family. Two former teen idols who you weren't sure would ever really do much more with their careers (well, certainly not Lawrence at least) now might have an actual TV show! Though, given the breadth of basic cable channels now producing original series, I guess it's not that surprising.

Great actor and cute! ...Continue »
I think he is a great actor and is very cute from Gimme a Break to Blossom. Now he is on Dancing with the Stars. But also he has a lot of potential to breakout and become a better actor if given the right scripts as well as given the right vehicle to work on IMO!

Real cool actor/singer. ...Continue »
I didn't watch Joey during his Blossom days, but I do remember him on his Gimme A Break days as well as Brotherly Love.

For BL, Joe Roman's so cool when he got to drive that motorcycle! Though I learned he had a double drive for him.

But I also liked his singing career as well. Too bad he never had the chance to make a 3rd CD. It would've been something if he had played instruments (piano, guitar) as well as having Matt to play the guitar & sing a solo cut. Matt hasn't sang since Boy Meets World & he's way overdue!

Joseph is most know for his role on Blossom, his younger brothers Matthew and Andrew played his role at younger ages. I loved him in that role ,when i saw a younger version of him on the show i thought they looked so a like htat i looked the show up and then i started watching Brotherly Love ,the show that was about 3 brothers and a garage and the 3 real life Lawrence Brothers (real name was changed when Joseph started acting from Mignogna to Joseph's middle name Lawrence :) Cool.)
I think all 3 brothers are great actors, but Joseph is the best.
