"It's Your Move"

For Today's little trip down memory lane, I've decided to visit the NBC Wednesday lineup in 1984 for this lost gem.. The sitcom "It's Your Move" starred JASON BATEMEN before he went on to star on FOX's "Arrested Development" or in the feature film "Juno".. At the time, BATEMEN was best known as "Family Ties" Star JUSTINE BATEMEN's kid brother and the character of DEREK, Ricky's best friend on "Silver Spoons"..

"It's Your Move" only last one season on NBC... In the show, BATEMEN played a young scam artist based in SoCal circa 1980's.. He meets his match though when he meets NORMAN LAMB, who moves into the apartment across the hall.. LAMB was played by actor DAVID GARRISON who went on to bigger stardom as MARCY's husband, STEVE RHODES on the FOX sitcom "Married with Children" a couple of years later.. The premise of the show was "Who could get over on who" with the most elaborate scam..

I remember watching "It's Your Move" when I was in the Third Grade and being bummed by it's sudden cancellation.. The show appeared for a short time later in the decade on the USA NETWORK before dissappearing into obscurity.. Thanks to the Internet, we can now enjoy this episode entitled "The Experts"..
