The Best of Times

Lorimar created this nostalgic teen angst series in 1983, sometimes known by its alternate title of Changing Times. The story follows three pals in a Midwestern high school, Pete Falcone (Robert Romanus), Neil Hefernan (Leif Green) and Dewey ‘the Phantom’ Hooper (Chris Nash), as they get into all manner of trouble with the usual contingent of bullying jocks, good-looking but uninterested girls, and the school's resident sadistic security chief. Though a good number of episodes were reportedly filmed, the bulk of the series never made it to air. The series did, however, get a few paychecks to Krista Errickson, keeping her alive long enough to show her best assets in 1990’s Mortal Passions. Which we can all be thankful for.
