Growing Pains — Season 6

The acceptance of a part in an off-Broadway production prompted Mike to abandon his studies and dedicate himself to acting in the vibrant city of New York.

In the sprawling metropolis of New York City, Mike finds himself without resources and without a place to call home. He is adrift, possessing nothing and belonging to nowhere.

Mike found himself sharing an apartment with his sister, Carol, who was now pursuing her studies at Columbia University.

Mike and his friend Eddie concocted a plan to join the Parents Without Partners group, hoping it would offer opportunities to meet women.

During the school's annual Parents' Night, the Seavers discover that Ben has been sharing with his friends a rather unkind assessment of his girlfriend's character, specifically labeling her as promiscuous.

Jason, ever the charmer, found his playful confidence waning as Maggie subtly shifted the dynamic. A spark of irritation flickered within him, a surprising heat born of unexpected vulnerability.

On a dark and drizzling Halloween, the Seavers gathered together, their voices weaving tales of spectral encounters and chilling legends.

Jason arranged an anniversary trip to Paris through Mike, the travel agent, who then experienced a sudden disruption of his own European tour. Meanwhile, Maggie, while in Paris, suffered a case of appendicitis.

In Paris, Maggie lay in a hospital bed. Meanwhile, Mike found himself stranded on the road, dealing with a disgruntled client.

Mike and Amy persisted in their arguments as they journeyed toward Paris.

Jason found a grim satisfaction in the unraveling of his mother’s second marriage, and he was reluctant to suggest she seek professional counsel.

Chrissy increasingly devoted herself to her companion, a mouse of impressive stature – six feet tall, to be precise – whom she’d conjured in her mind and named Ike.

Eddie, Mike’s friend, appeared for what was intended as a double date with Mike’s former girlfriend.

During a seminar focused on family communication, Mike and Jason find themselves unexpectedly discovering a profound degree of shared understanding.

Jason entered into a partnership with Ben, joining him in the management of a burgeoning rap group. However, the investment Jason made in the venture proved to be a means of exerting control over Ben.

Maggie’s father appeared at the door with little warning, bearing news of his approaching end.

Following her father’s passing, Jason arranged a trip to a tropical destination for Maggie, hoping the change of scenery would ease her grief. He left Mike and Carol in the care of Chrissy, placing his trust in her.

The audition was a battle. Mike found himself vying with a seasoned performer for a part in the daytime drama, a stark reminder of how fragile a career in acting truly is.

Despite Carol's well-intentioned but tactless suggestion during a clinic meeting, Jason finds himself deeply troubled by her developing relationship with a man who has a criminal past.

A strange disorientation settled over Ben as he opened his eyes, a feeling akin to stepping into a forgotten corner of a familiar dream. He was no longer himself, but rather Jeremy Miller, an actor immersed in the meticulously crafted world…

The blind date spiraled toward disaster, so Carol sought refuge at the carnival. There, amidst the flashing lights and boisterous crowds, she discovered an unexpected wellspring of joy and exhilaration.

Following his suspension, Ben finds himself under the tutelage of his mother, Maggie, as she provides him with instruction within the home.

Mike and Kate joined Eddie, who was fleeing to marry, and a young woman working at the hotel's coat check, their presence inadvertently leading Mike and Carol to believe something was amiss.
