SAY IT AIN'T so, Schmoopie! After 10 seasons and 229 side-busting episodes, we're saying goodbye to ABC's '80sbased sitcom The Goldbergs.
Based on the life of series creator Adam F. Goldberg, the comedy explored the gnarliest decade via big-loving mom Beverly (Wendi McLendon-Covey), bombastic father Murray (Jeff Garlin) and their three children: aspiring singer Erica (Hayley Orrantia), wired Barry (Troy Gentile) and video camera–toting Adam (Sean Giambrone) as well as Beverly's rascally father Albert "Pops" Solomon (George Segal).
"Adam always had a very specific vision, and he really established just a great template for a family comedy," says executive producer Alex Barnow. That included Goldberg's real home video footage at the end of most episodes.
Time travel to 1980-something-a phrase heard in each episode after the pilotand relive this most excellent sitcom.
Casting began with McLendon-Covey, whom producers had worked with on the CBS sitcom Rules of Engagement.
McLendon-Covey: This sounds obnoxious, but it was a straight offer. I thought, "This character is so bananas, I really want to do this."
Orrantia: I do remember the pilot, and I was in a dream state. It was my first experience [on a TV show].
