Trivia
  • The Solomons live at 417 Pensdale Road, Rutherford, Ohio.
  • Physicist Brian Greene wrote some dialogue for John Lithgow`s character.
  • # During its five-year run on primetime, the show underwent more than 15 time-slot changes.
  • The three main male characters` names are Tom, Dick and Harry.
  • # # In the episode where they go to New York to start a different life, Harry gets a job as the President of NBC. As president he arranges a new schedule for the spoof of "Will & Grace" (1998). ("Will & Grace" (1998) is produced by NBC).
  • The character Dick Solomon was ranked #24 in TV Guide`s list of the "25 Greatest Sci-Fi Legends" (1 August 2004 issue).
  • 95% of all episode titles are a play on the word "Dick".
  • # # A lot of the sets are used more than once, hence the similar designs in some places. (eg. The classroom used for Harry`s night school is in fact Mary`s classroom.)
  • Cancelled on 8 April 2001 due to falling viewing figures in its final season.
  • John Lithgow`s son, Ian Lithgow, played Dick Solomon`s student Leon throughout the series.
