Growing Pains: Season 3

As the hit comedy series continues in its third season, family dynamics hold court. In a two-part episode, Jason's ability to look at the bright side turns a family vacation in Maui — a vacation that would be called a disaster by anyone else's standards — into a positive experience. Back on Long Island, when their house is burglarized, the Seavers realize their sense of security is worth more than any stolen possession. How will they recover that? Plus, Maggie gets hired at a TV station, Mike runs for student body president of his high school and, when Carol turns in an exam that she bluffed her way through because she didn't study and gets an A+ on it, she has serious doubts about the importance of grades and education. What will Mike say to quell her concerns? Of course, these stories and more are executed with humor and heart as Growing Pains continues to delight viewers.
