Dinah and Kristy were so good together. So glad they shared a sitcom together later on.

THIS is an example why you can't burn your bridges in entertainment. You NEVER know who you are going to end up working with - or for - later. So funny seeing them together when they were younger. I LOVED their dynamic on "Empty Nest". They were a hoot!

The future stars of "Empty Nest" 10 years before they are Barbara and Carol.

Now this is an episode I didn't remember. How interesting seeing "Carol" and "Barbara" from Empty Nest together here. WHo knew they would end up on a show together 10 years later.

I love their house. I love them. The parents are so nice. So together. I know it's a TV show but it's nice to fantasize.

Willie can’t fix his own lunch?!!!

Dinah Manoff is really good in this role, probably the best acting work she’s done

It's cool to see Barbara and Carol Weston as teenagers.

Carol and Barbara: The High School Years

8:07 Man, how these kids whine when they're actually forced to make their own sandwich!

Mara was a great character, she wasn't meant for the mind numbing conformity of High School/

That's pretty cool. 2 Empty nest stars years before the show aired.

Makes me want to watch Empty Nest!!!

Doug my heart sank too when I saw that jacket😐

I love Marla's voice....just realized she was Marty in Grease....!

Dinah Manoff has the sweetest kindest voice....and her hat highlights her EYES.....

That’s why they had such great chemistry. They worked together before. Carol was on Soap playing Bert’s daughter-in-law. The chemistry with all three actors was there. That’s what made Empty Nest so good. Buddy was alot like Mara. She is a free spirit too. I thought Kristy then looked like a white Janet Jackson.

He hates that plaid jacket...

Always going to grow up in a family like that when I was a kid just the perfect household

They have the same dynamic , magic!

Thank you for sharing this show. I never watched it growing up. I’m a huge Kristy McNichol fan.

"Mara" really must have been neglected by her parents, she's 22 and still in high school! :) "Buddy'' is easily 5 or 6 years younger than her, and it shows! Thanks for the episode, you have a great channel.

It's pouring rain and Buddy doesnt offer to share her umbrella. So self-centered.

Thank you so much for posting these episodes of family. I loved this show from childhood. It’s so nice to see them again. I can’t thank you enough.

Thanks again! You are a big hit with our fan group on Facebook

Cotillion?!! Yeah right. Buddy, a debutante?

Oh man the lady who played the teacher just died I saw she was great played on king of queens as dougs mother and did facts of life season one she was great

Looks like “Carol” was kinda strange then too 😂

Awww Sisters, must of been a gag years later for them on Empty Nest Dinah and Kristy were hilarious.

Thanks so much 4 these videos of my favorite series

Thank you for uploading this episode.

Carol and Barbara Weston from _Empty Nest_ FTW. Dinah Manoff and Kristy McNichol respectively, that is.

Some High school kids are so naive to one's potential; some of them are too self involved

She is Lee Grant's daughter.

This great!!👍😄!!! I watch these two all the time on Empty Nest, on KZfaq. I see this channel says, "Decades". I think i can get that channel on Fios, Verizon.

They played sistets in empty nest 6-7 years later

That jacket is so 70s!

I watch these old clips constantly, but, man this family is weird!!!!

I really couldn't stand self centered Buddy on this ep. She was horrible to her friend

I like how the Sweet Husband Nd Wife Have a Little Drink Together 🍷😁❤️💋

0:16 FFS, Pops, close the door when you're taking a leak.

Buddy and Mara: to reunite in Empty Nest!

Same teacher played Annie's teacher in another episode.

Seriously? The down-to-earth Laurences having a coming out party for Buddy? Gross.

Kristy and Dinah acted together again in the series Empty Nest

Mara was wrong. It doesn't matter how creative and brilliant you are, when you are part of a group project you don't hog all the work for yourself and then completely change the theme from what was agreed on by the group. I don't see why Buddy was made to feel as if she was in the wrong. She put her neck out to get her friend a position on the committee and then the friend behaved badly and made things difficult for Buddy. Buddy continued to defend her friend even when things were going badly, I felt for Buddy here, not Mara. Kate is usually so level headed but not this time. She should have (gently and kindly) told Mara that she made a mistake and explained why. As it was this girl went off into the sunset thinking that she did the right things and that others just didn't understand her superiority.

The parents drink daily in front of their kids, and Kate can be pushy at times.

That teacher was Scott Scanlon's mom in Bev Hills 90210

buddys friend is marty one of the pink ladies from grease movie

This walkin in the rain scene wasnt properly done.

I know I've said a few negative things lately about the show and I don't want people to get the wrong idea. I love the show, I love the characters. But I feel like the writing is deteriorating in this season, sadly. Things are happening that are not realistic and in keeping with how the characters as we know them would behave.

The teacher looks like Shirley McClean.

I didn't know she did this show

Willie is such an entitled spoiled brat. He should have to work for 5 minutes.

What happen to shows like this009 🍿

@1:43 - just the slightest pause before walking on cue.

I thought that looks a lot like Dinah

Is that Shirley MacLaine as the teacher in the Tess part?

Please let me know, what channel, "Decades" is, thankyou.

The teacher is John Travolta’s mom.

☝🏻 PRIMERO 🇪🇨
