My Two Dads was an 80's sitcom. The show was based upon the concept of two men being awarded custody of a young girl. Both men had apparently been lovers of her mother, when she died she left her daughter Nicole to both of them.
This show was rather popular during the time it was aired, (from 1987 to 1990). The plot were not exactly memorable, it was standard 80's family comedy stuff all the way. This is the show that brought Paul Reiser to fame, and no one can deny the natural cuteness of Staci Keanan.
Michael (played by Paul Reiser), plays a shockingly similar role to the one he plays on Mad About You, (although he may just be one of those people who always plays the same character). While Greg Evigan plays the other dad, Joey (think "Jesse" from Full House). The two dads argue constantly, but deep down they are best friends.
Nicole is your standard bubbly 13 year old girl, not very unique, but pretty and nice, she plays the same character that a 1000 teenage actresses have played before her. But that gives her a sense of familiarity, you know this character almost instantly.
All in all I would have to say that My Two Dads is a passably good show. If it comes on give it a watch, but it isn't worth adjusting your schedule for.
