I’m thrilled to see that Freddie Savage is going to get another kick at the sit-com can.

He failed with something called “Crumbs” in 2006, but this time it’s sounds a little more promising.

Savage will play the lead male role in the pilot for “Single White Millionaire” about a rich guy in this 30’s who wants to settle down.

It’s been a tough go for Savage since “The Wonder Years” went off the air in 1993.

It was a superb show that ranks right up there with Seinfeld on my list of all time favourite television shows. It might even surpass it.

The Wonder Years was fantastic, but admittedly got a little awkward as Kevin Arnold grew older and lost his little boy looks.

I still watch the show on re-runs because it nails my childhood to a tee. The show began in 1988 and lasted until 1993, and it was set exactly twenty years prior.

When Kevin was 16 in 1972, so was I.

The Wonder Years was remarkably relatable and I have to admit, I get a heavy heart when ever I’m flippin’ through the channels and I hear this.
