3.0 out of 5 stars Superficial but enjoyable, December 2, 2007

By	O. B. Tryggvason (Gardabaer Iceland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Swinging bachelor Johnny Gains (Bixby) one day learns that he fathered a boy 17 years ago when the bright eyed lad shows up at his doorstep. The mother has passed on and Johnny has some tough decisions to make and learns in the process that he has some growing up to do himself.

Lighthearted TV movie of the week goes by all too fast (clocking in at 73 minutes) and only superficially touches on an important subject. Bill Bixby is very likable (as always) and despite all the short cuts the film is quite enjoyable. Just don't expect too much.

One thing though. The DVD is not very good with heavy grain throughout and not even chapter stops. It's acceptable...just.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not Courtship of Eddie's Father - disappointed, July 13, 2008

By	Mary Beth Hernandez "grandma mary" (Princeton, wv USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This movie has the same actors/actresses in it as the weekly show so I took a chance thinking it may be about the same - not at all like the sequel. So I was disappointed.
