harry and the hendersons
in the series, george and nancy were an upwardly mobile two-career couple, with the former working for a sporting goods company. george eventually launched his own magazine, "the better life", late in the second season. initially helping the hendersons with harry's care, and sasquatch research, was walter potter, a biologist working for the department of animal control. also seen early on were the glicks, neighbors of the hendersons; samantha was a pretty, young single mother and reporter, and tiffany was her precocious little girl, a classmate of ernie's who had an obvious crush on him. samantha, tiffany, and walter were all written out after the first season, but the aspect of having a girl next door who chased after ernie was retained through a new character, darcy payne, for the 1991-92 season. darcy was more annoying than her predecessor, and spent all her waking hours trying to make the hendersons' young son hers. however, she did catch on to the fact that the family was hiding a bigfoot, and had several close encounters with harry; fortunately, darcy disappeared from the show before she could have exposed the secret about him. nancy's younger brother brett, a photographer, moved in with the hendersons in the second season, and was also sworn to secrecy about harry. when george began "the better life" in the spring of 1992, brett was hired as the publication's chief photographer and a financial beneficiary.
