Peter Scolari wasn't really allowed to be attractive on Newhart but I always thought he was very handsome on Bosom Buddies (and here - even with that haircut). And Julia is adorable as ever. I saw her on Looking recently and she's just brilliant. I wish they both got more work.
this brings back memories. i loved watching friday night videos. there was no youtube back in those days and i didn't have mtv. all of the artists in the promo were good unlike today.
That was a very enjoyable video. I greatly remember first watching this episode back on July 25, 1986 which was the weekend I traveled down to Walt Disney World for the very first time with my family.
I understand this comment was made 8 years ago, but it was a short-sighted nonsensical comment. At least one of the videos was from Madonna. I absolutely LOVED Julia Duffy and Peter Scolari in Newhart. However, far more people around the world (and in the USA as well) know who Madonna is more so that Julia or Peter. Madonna is still the highest-selling female music artist in music history. Madonna became a cultural icon which is a rare feat. Her fame transcended even beyond the music world. Plus, Madonna’s song, “PAPA DON’T PREACH” was a #1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. I don’t know what other videos played that evening, but there likely may have been videos from Michael Jackson, U2 (with Bono), Prince, George Michael, and/or Phil Collins. All those artists are WAY, WAY, WAY more famous and admired than these two awesome sitcom stars. Btw, I think Julia Duffy was one of the best actresses on any sitcom ever.
He was indeed. However, Julia’s performance was the best of all on Newhart. In fact, I think Julia was perhaps the best female sitcom star other than Jean Stapleton as Edith Bunker.
Julia was my crush as a kid in the 80's. Such a babe, pretty much the epitome of what 80's babes were all about, she was sexy but classy, she could wear a hooded sweatshirt out and make it look hot. She just had "IT", whatever that is. Good times! :)
I watched this episode many times back in the day. I wish they could had included Julie's off the cuff remarks: When introducing Madonna's video "A good wholesome girl." Or when she was asked what advice she'd give a funny, pretty, young blond actress just starting out. "Get another career honey, maybe a producer and give me a job!"
As is the case often (and surprisingly so), some actors look so much more handsome when they are not in a movie or on their tv show. This is the case here with Peter Scolari. Incredible classic lines on that head, more evident in profile shots. // Also of interest: his voice is in a lower register than one would expect with his looks, much as is the case with Dick Cavett. // Julia Duffey is a knockout and seems like a wonderful person.
Michael passed away at the far-too-young age of 66. Mary Fram (Joanna) passed away in 1998. Mary was only 55. Both went way, way too soon and too young.
Not me. I loved Peter on Newhart. All the characters were very good. However, in my opinion, Julia Duffy made the show. She was incredibly great on Newhart. Her comedic timing and delivery were impeccable. Julia was absolutely amazingly funny in the role of Stephanie.
In these dark days, we sometimes forget there was a funny lively great place to live in America before Barack Obama, and we overlook that there will be an America after Barack Obama is long gone.
Except for Michael Jackson, Prince, Whitney Houston, Janet Jackson, and Run-DMC, MTV didn't play whole lot of videos by black artists. MTV didn't start becoming more inclusive until Yo MTV Raps premiered.
RIP PETER.
Totally underrated
Rest in peace Peter scolari
R.I.P. Peter Scolari.
These two are so funny and cute together ! Peter Scolari is adorable! Great Hair !
RIP Peter Scolari
It's great that NBC allowed stars from Newhart to host and promote their show. Newhart was on CBS!
The best kept secret in show business is that Peter Scolari was really the talented half of the duo from Bosom Buddies.
I remember this show!! It was so 80's!! Julia Duffy was such a babe!! Still is!!
i never realized peter was so adorable

Yes he was the sexiest, cutest thing I've ever seen. Mad crush when i was 12 or 13!
I know what u mean about him not allowing to be attractive on Newhart, but I still thought he was cute as hell.
Rest in peace Peter Scolari Scott Muni and Jermaine Stewart
@@stephaniesoutherland6493 very adorable indeed my dear I was very little
I thought he was really attractive on Newheart. He's got a great speaking voice
this brings back memories. i loved watching friday night videos. there was no youtube back in those days and i didn't have mtv. all of the artists in the promo were good unlike today.
This is great lol, these two are amazing.
I love these two. Witty and droll! Julia Duffy is captivating!
That was a very enjoyable video. I greatly remember first watching this episode back on July 25, 1986 which was the weekend I traveled down to Walt Disney World for the very first time with my family.
I watched it when it aired in '86. these two are more memorable than the music that they hosted for.

watched it the night was on. Trip down memory lane!
He was a hunk then and still a hunk i had a crush on him in bosom buddies when i was a little girl

I remember watching this when I first aired I was 20 years old God that seems like a lifetime ago
More than that!
Good deadpan humor and that lineup of videos looked absolutely iconic!

Peter Scolari is adorable- he reminds me of David Hyde Pierce AKA Dr. Niles Crane in this interview.
They were both great, Peter and Tom Hanks were very funny in their sitcom.
Peter was funny.

Michael Harris.

@@wiltchamberlainisthegoat13 Yeah,he certainly did.
Peter’s comic genius is well known (RIP) but I think a lot of people sleep on Julia’s.

In this video Peter reminds me of Dick Cavett, in looks and voice.
Friday Night Videos was so weird!
1986🤔
I luv their banter! And she does seem cute.
Where are the videos? I guess in 86 is when they stopped running the opening theme.
I wish they were really married.
JugheadObama,
You have to learn to let go.
In these dark days, we sometimes forget there was a funny lively great place to live in America before Barack Obama, and we overlook that there will be an America after Barack Obama is long gone.
Friday Night Videos seemed ridiculous if you had MTV.
Except for Michael Jackson, Prince, Whitney Houston, Janet Jackson, and Run-DMC, MTV didn't play whole lot of videos by black artists. MTV didn't start becoming more inclusive until Yo MTV Raps premiered.
The point was at that time not everyone had cable.
@@spudskie3907 Who made that point?
@@good03boy Jackson was all over MTV, whatchu talkin' 'bout?
Fake laugh ends when she thinks the camera has pulled away @6:50
