Open All Night (1981–1982)
5 years ahead of its time
29 June 2010
The writers of this show were 5 years ahead of the pack, the timing between Feester and his step son was great. The acting in general was great. I wish it would have gone on to bigger and better things but unfortunately it did not. It was pulled off the year after a season.It was the kind of show that made you realize that a comedic situation can occur anywhere. It all took place in Gordon Feester's 24 hour convenience store. For some reason I can recall that it was in Connecticut or somewhere "close" to New York City.(similar to a 7-11) slight tensions between step-father and step-son added to comedy as Gordon had to play the cards he was dealt, with a servant-like step-son. I can't remember the Mom that much, but I am sure she was good as well. I also remember the theme song being stuck in my head for a couple of years; it was memorable and incorporated the characters names in it.

horrible

I remember being about six or seven and seeing the promo for the show. I figured Gilligan finally got off of the island and became a writer who wanted little kids to hang out in his apartment from 3 to 6. Funny enough I can remember the theme song being "3 to 6…. 3 to 6 he helps out parents from 3 to 6" I don't even think there were 3 episodes, it sucked so bad they pulled it off the air. I cant really remember the rest of the cast, however i am pretty sure that the kids were ethnically diverse. I guess Bob Denver peeked as Gilligan, it would have been nice if he was able to have success with another show.

I was disappointed in the show; the premise would not fly in this day.
