    (Some of you might be kind of young and may not know about these :happy: )

    1) The Brady Bunch - Cousin Oliver
    2) Married With Children - Cousin Seven
    3) Family Ties - Andrew ("Andy") Keaton
    4) Saved By The Bell - Tori (Even though I lot of people did not like her, I thought she was okay....)
    5) Growing Pains - Luke Bower (Leo Di Caprio as a teen. He wasn't bad in the show, but the show probably should have ended a year sooner...)

    That 70s Show. The final season where Eric joined the Peace Corps and they brought in a "not-Eric" to replace him.

    Totally agree. And agree about all the new small kid additions to TV shows.

    And of course for the movies: when they destroyed the Indiana Jones series with the whole nuke the fridge and live bit.

    He actually had his own page on the former Jump the Shark website..........although I thought he was a better option on Married with Children.
