Pilot... Who's the Boss reference?

Just watching the Pilot, and noticed something funny. At the very beginning of the first scene, Maggie is at the stove cooking breakfast, and seems to be humming the Who's the Boss theme song. I know GP was released 1 year after WTB and they aired on same channel, same night, so I thought this was a funny reference. Anyone else notice this?

I think it said something about that in the trivia. Or I heard that someplace else.

Also, during the episode where Ben has a nightmare due to a scheduled tonsilectomy, he tells one of the doctors that his favorite show is the one that comes on between Who's the Boss and Moonlighting.
