Cool! I was actually on Good Company once as a baby; some show or other talking about parenting that featured three or four real couples with their children. Apparently I was well-behaved, haha.

Thanks for this, and all your other fantastic videos!

Do you have the episode on tape?

Twin Cities Live which now airs at 3pm on 5 Eyewitness News which KSTP-TV is now called is the new Good Company. If you liked Good Company between 1990-1994, you'll like TCL.

Definitely. And he'd ironically enough have his own variety talker three years later.

Also funny to see women's boxing (now a real sport) touted as a mere fitness craze.

Does anyone know the name of the "Good Company" theme? I've heard it used before on some generic television program...

I miss Good Company.... i used to watch it when i was home during the early 1990s-94.

I wish I did; I don't even know if my parents ever had a copy, though I think my (now deceased) grandparents did.

They now produce a bunch of shows of HGTV.
