  • What if Snow White and Prince Charming were magically transported to the San Fernando valley in 1987? And they lived happily ever after in the fictitious town of Van Oaks. That is what this unusual sitcom from the late 1980’s attempts to explore. The show premiered on March 20th, 1987 on the ABC television network. The creators of this show went on to create The Nanny.

    I also really like that the little boy loves Lillian despite she’s the evil queen! It is often the little people even in real life that bring out the best even in the bad guys.

    The father on "Reba" as the father, Miss Farmer from "3 O'Clock High" as the mother, the guy who played Martin Luther King, Jr. in that 1978 miniseries about said civil rights activist and Julian Barlow on another Embassy-produced series, "227" as the mirror on the wall, and the dude who played J.T. Lambert on another ABC sitcom "Step by Step" as one of the sons.

      I saw on IMDb that the 2nd Snow was her first TV/movie role; strange it would be a lead. Maybe last minute casting?
      I saw on Wikipedia it ran March-April, then came back with a new Snow to run September-February; didn't broadcast episode 21 in USA, but did in UK.

      Just after I read that, I saw the ad of the show's cast saying so on Mom's old VHS tape! "Who's Cosby?" I think the only way to have gotten ratings opposite Cosby would have been to broadcast Nascar or wrestling! Or if a/the woman he raped filming the Cosby Show had come out then.

    I know they make fun of it now but I love these old shows with their cheesy intros lol It's hard to picture this airing with Sledgehammer. God I miss only 3 networks (and pbs)... These were great times - the 80's was the best decade.

    This was a GOOD show. Paul Winfield saves it. They switch snows in s2...I think 1st snow was 'better' but this was a smart show -written off as dumb. It says alot of the cast that you actually BUY the premise by how they act.
