Charles in Charge was a childhood favorite of mine and still is, this gem just puts me in a good mood. Charles in Charge Season 5 is the final season of this clever and hilarious sitcom, I am a child of the '80s so having all the seasons is bittersweet. Season 5 will be released this summer and think this season was the best by a mile. Only Scott Baio could play this likeable role, I highly recommend it. Reserve your copy today!

The final season of the beloved late 80's and early 90's sitcom Charles in Charles is both hysterically funny and oh so bittersweet. This is the last season where Charles takes care of the not so little children but teenagers of the Powel family, the last time he gets into trouble in college, with his bevy of girls, and the last time that his beloved and supposedly dumb best friend Buddy and Charles enjoy their adventures in the world of Charles in Charge.A word about Buddy, while his character starts out being a wide out and not so smart college kid, he also evolves into a total moron at some points in the other seasons, avid Buddy fans will be happy to know that in the last season Buddy not only shows great maturity, but proves over and over again that sometimes the fool is really that as big of a fool as one might think! I loved this show and highly reccomend to get the last season of Charles in Charge- they just dont make sitcoms like that anymore!

Unlike the garbage you see on TV today, Charles In Charge is one of the best sitcoms in TV history. This is the final season of Charles in Charge and officially completed my Charles in Charge DVD collection. I'm just sad that I don't have any other seasons to look forward to buying. If you like retro TV sitcoms, buy this. You'll be glad you did.

Unless you enjoyed this season on T. V. don't get it!!!! I didn't remember this particular season and ordered it. It was so stupid. There were only a couple of episodes that weren't so ridiculous but not enough to get the entire season. They Buddy even more stupid if that's possible. I understand in the eighties we weren't all that into intellectual shows but I thought brain numbing went out with Gilligan's Island. I can't understand why they couldn't come up with better episodes. I know the writer's have a brain, I just wished they could have used them in their writing this show's end season. Now I know why it went off the air. I know we need comedy relief sometimes but this is unbelievable. They even made Jaimi smart. What happened I don't know. The first two seasons were great. It all goes down hill from there.

I have purchased and viewed the entire "Charles in Charge" TV series on DVD. It's a wonderful nostalgic to TV times when comedies were more pure and funny and sweet. Yet there were some lessons learned along the way, too. The only negative point I would mention about this series is that toward the end of it, no mention was made of the mother character - where she was, why she was always gone from the house. Season 4, I believe, had less of her appearance as well but at least she was there occasionally, shown as having taken a fulltime job selling real estate. I guess we're to assume she did that too in Season 5, however, if it weren't for "Aunt Lillian" (Charles' mom) and the grandfather, the kids under 'Charles' charge would not have had an adult family member present at all, which is kind of odd. This is why I rated this season 4 stars rather than 5.

Otherwise, I liked the stories, the acting, and the characters. As I stated, sometimes it's so nice to go back to these old comedies when comedy was more wholesome and fun. It's a good break from today's all-too-many realistic and suggestive plots.

Wow! What can I say about Charles in Charge? This show was one of the best. Tops, man! Though, I am probably one of the few who favors season one the best. I saw random airings of Charles in charge and was most familiar with the cast from season 2 thru. But, the sometimes on again "other family" (I remember saying to myself, "Who are they!") that was on the show were my favorite, indeed. The whole cast seemed to really meld together. The writing was less cocky and used all the characters very accurately to their role. Charles was close to the Pembroke family, something you don't really get to see with the Powell's.

So glad that Amazon had the Charles in Charge tv series on dvd. Love the older comedy shows. It was a great tv series. Wish they offered more tv series from the 80's and 90's on dvd.

I have found that this is the Best, out of the 5 Seasons, espeacially the Finial Esposode of the Series of which was Put Out Of Order; the Finail Eposoide happens to be on Disk # 6, and if I'm NOT Mistaken, it is Eposoide 2, Titled " Charles Be Demille " if I'm NOT Mistaken. This Eposoide Alot More " Educational " then people think or even Realize!
