just part of the furnishing.
Bob SturmHOST
I mean, the show is called Silver Spoons, guys.

That's what your house would look like if you, in fact, were born with a silver spoon in your mouth as a stand-up arcade.

MattHOST
But when they get to the house, for example, and it's like the Silver Spoons playroom or something in a sitcom from the 80s or whatever.
MattHOST
But I mean, hey, they escape.

But if that was an island, well, we learn later that their powers, at least the girl can talk to a shark to take them away.

MattHOST
I don't know.
MattHOST
These kids handle the town of shotgun people, right? So, yeah.
MattHOST
Am I in a Disney movie in this situation? I was just thinking, I was looking up the page while you were asking a question because I was on the thing and thinking, oh, instead of the nefarious version of the big scary room, you get little Ricky Schroeder who gets to stay in that kind of room for five seasons of Silver Spoons, which might be why that show is so appealing in the 80s.
ThomasHOST

Errol MarksHOST
He's there just to take good care of me like he's one of the family." [laughs]

Yes
WesGUEST

PussPANELIST
... my, when we, uh, when we have enough money, I wanna get a pinball machine, and I want a standup arcade game.
PussPANELIST
Because as a child, I would watch Silver Spoons.
Mike TylerHOST
Right.
PussPANELIST
And, and Ricky Schroder had the arcade in his living room.
ChrisHOST
Um, Christine Belford plays Regina Cunningham, Arnie's mother, and I knew exactly where I'd seen her from when I saw her fussing at Arnie.
ChrisHOST
Uh, she was from a TV series playing the mother to Ricky Schroder in the series Silver Spoons.
MartyHOST
Yeah.
MartyHOST
I do remember-
ChrisHOST
So-
MartyHOST
...
MartyHOST
Silver Spoons.
ChrisHOST
Yeah, so whenever you would see, um, [clicks tongue] the mom, Evelyn Stratton, show up occasionally at the house, you know, her and Edward Stratton, they'd been divorced for a little while.
Sydney O'ReillyHOST
So, in 1981, at age 12, Bateman landed his first big role on Little House on the Prairie, 21 episodes.
Sydney O'ReillyHOST
Then he landed Silver Spoons, where he'd appear in, once again, 21 episodes.
Sydney O'ReillyHOST
Bateman became a teen on set.
Sydney O'ReillyHOST
And between takes, between call times, he and his fellow tween teen co-stars found entertaining ways to pass the time.
5 MINS LATER
Sydney O'ReillyHOST
He'd lost his identity.
Sydney O'ReillyHOST
Bateman continued auditioning for parts, and getting none of them.
Sydney O'ReillyHOST
He played golf across the street from Universal, and on the fifth hole, he could see the lots where he'd filmed Silver Spoons and It's Your Move.
Sydney O'ReillyHOST
It was devastating.

JamieGUEST
I liked Alf.
Alan SepinwallHOST
I have a complicated relationship with Ricky Schroeder.
Alan SepinwallHOST
I'm of Generation X, so Silver Spoons was a key show for me growing up.
Alan SepinwallHOST
And you thought of him as like, here's this cute kid and very charming.
Alan SepinwallHOST
Then he went away for a while, and then he was cast to replace Jimmy Smits on my beloved NYPD Blue.
Alan SepinwallHOST
I'm, I'm of Generation X, so I...
Alan SepinwallHOST
You know, Silver Spoons was a key show for me growing up, and you thought of him as like, "Here's this cute, like, kid, and, you know, very charming." Then he went away for a while, and then he was cast to replace Jimmy Smits on my beloved NYPD Blue, and the response was, "What the hell are they thinking?" And I had seen Lonesome Dove in between, but, like- Uh, and then he was really good on NYPD Blue, and then he kind of disappeared and he's into all sorts of weird stuff.
Alan SepinwallHOST
