What Parents Need to Know
About Who's the Boss?
Parents need to know that in this series, two single parents, their kids, and a lively, man-crazy grandmother live together in a non-traditional family. By making the main male character a housekeeper, the show offers a good twist on traditional gender roles. The evolving relationship between Tony and Angela -- along with subtle sexual tension between them -- is a central theme. Other issues explored include teen dating, parents dating, and jealousy. The series is particularly good for kids who understand the dynamics of non-traditional families.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about what constitutes a family and how this program (from the early 1980s) was one of the first to highlight a single, career-driven woman relying on a domestic male figure to run the household. What would it be like to have a man other than your dad in charge of the cooking and cleaning? How do you think you'd deal with a situation like Tony and Sam's?

Would be good show if there wasn't so much innuendo
I had never seen this show before, and purchased the DVD to see what it was like. This show is very good....funny, entertaining - except there is a fair helping of sexual innuendo and sexual tension between the two main characters. In the Season One finale, Tony and Angela, both intoxicated kiss in the kitchen, and the next morning Angela thinks she had sex with Tony and her mother seems rather pleased....Tony walks in on Angela naked in the bathroom...and so on. There are other mild references to sexual actions in the show also. Profanity is used rarely in this series. Overall, this show is good for older audiences, but I'd be careful around kids. While it seems like an innocent show, it's not.
