TV Guide Presents CHARLES IN CHARGE: SEASON 2 - Synopsis

Charles, a college student, moves in with the Powell family as the housekeeper, baby-sitter, and friend to the children. Along with his best friend, Buddy, Charles attempts to manage his life-- especially college and girls, as well as tend to the family.

When “Charles in Charge” returned as a first-run syndicated series in early 1987, only Charles and Buddy were left from the original cast. The Pembrokes had moved to Seattle and sold their house to the Powells, who became Charles’ new employers. The man of the house was Mr. Powell’s cranky father Walter, a retired career Navy man. Also in the house were Walter’s daughter-in-law Ellen, and his three grandchildren, Jamie (14), Sarah (13), and Adam (12).

That season Charles’ loving mother, Lillian, came from Scranton for a short visit. She bought his favorite hangout, Sid’s Pizza Parlor, and took up permanent residence in New Brunswick. Not only did he have to deal with her good-natured meddling, but picking up girls at Sid’s, when she was there, was not what it used to be.
