What episode had the pizza girl ?


Does anyone know which episode featured Mike fantasizing about a girl spinning pizza dough while Tiffany's "Could've Been" played ?

"Nasty Habits" from season three. Original airdate December 15 1987.

Has to be among my favorites!

Thanks. That's one of those moments that's been stuck in my head since I was a kid and I just can't seem to find any info about it online.

It probably had to be one of the funniest eps of Growing Pains ever. Mike trying to do his term paper the night before it was due and finding every distraction that there was to keep him from doing it. It reminded me of me to be honest.

A few other very funny eps had to be Ben and Mike's Excellent Adventure, Carol's Papers, and the one where Mike sat atop a prymiad scheme on the paper route. Those get me everytime!

Was Ben and Mike's Excellent Adventure the one where Ben has a project due and he's out cruising around with Mike and a friend all night. Camera pans over half-assed project- "Mrs so and so, making this project was the best night of my life". I loved that one. I was Ben's age when it first aired and I though that'd be badass.

Indeed that was the ep. I would rank it as my absolute fave ep of GP. Just loved the brotherly feel to it and how Ben was coming of age so much in it.

Very infamous episode where I heard "Could've Been" for the first time. I thought that was SO cool that a brand new song was appearing on the show lol.

Right, that was the song alright. I want to say that it was sung by Tiffany.
