They even got a bootleg ass fake Bruce Willis voice guy for the "Mikey" character. CAN WE SAY PLLLAAAGGGIIIAAARRRIIISSSM?

Baby Talk was originally supposed to go on the air in September 1990 (under the title 'Look Who's Talking', since it was directly adapted from the movie), with Connie Sellecca as the mother. Sellecca apparently became less enthralled by the quality of the scripts, and dropped out of production a short while before Baby Talk was set to premiere. ABC then delayed its start, ultimately to March 1991, during which time they replaced Sellecca with Julia Duffy.

Listen here, misinformed. One, Duet was not a "stupid" show. Two, Mary Page Keller got star billing because the show's premise centered around that of a mother and her infant/toddler son. The show originally had no involvement with Scott Baio, and besides, here he shares top billing with Keller, so I doubt he had anything to object to. This mirrored the case with Look Who's Talking, in which Kirstie Alley and John Travolta were techincally shared leads.

@adheckle It didn't involve just one network, but TV tried to make Paula Marshall a star in the 90s and it didn't take.Over 8 years, she starred in 6 different series on ABC and NBC and they all lasted less than a season.The longest series lasted 14 episodes.Hell, she was even killed off 11 episodes into one series.

At one point, she had a failed series 4 seasons in a row(97, 98, 99 and 00).She starred in 10 failed series from 1994-2008.

To the uploader, the show didn't rip-off Look Who's Talking, it was an adaptation of the film.Amy Heckerling, who wrote and directed Look Who's Talking, developed the series and characters for TV.It was originally going to be called Look Who's Talking, but the sequel was coming out at the same time, so they changed the name.

Scott Baio should have bee insulted Mary Page Keller was given top billing over him. Being on Happy Days alone made him a bigger star than her. Plus he also had another hit with Charles in Charge. What did Mary Page have on her resume. A stupid show Duet that only lasted 2.5 seasons

That's a lot of famous people.

Not really a "rip-off" per say since it was made by the same person who created LOOK WHO'S TALKING but still, this was one of those shows I remember always seeing the opening for as a kid but never actually watching.
