List of Mr. Belvedere episodes


This is the complete episode list for the U.S. TV series Mr. Belvedere, which spanned 6 seasons. There were 7 episodes made for season 1, and 22 episodes made for each subsequent season. A total of 117 episodes in the 6 seasons were produced for the ABC television network from 1985 to 1990, with some episodes being shelved by ABC, only to make their debut in off-network syndication. Each episode was videotaped before a live audience at ABC Television Center (now The Prospect Studios) in Hollywood, CA, utilizing a multi-camera setup, though some episodes occasionally did on-location shoots, with a single-camera setup. Also occasionally, the show did multi-part episodes. There were three in total (one from season 3, one from season 4, and one from season 6), and all of them were two-parts long.

All episodes are arranged in the order of first television airing. Information on ratings for first-run airings, for all but 10 episodes, came from Broadcasting Magazine.

Tape dates (whenever available) have been compiled from various scripts, and other production materials online.

The series began its run on ABC on Friday nights at 8:30 P.M. It left the schedule after April 26, 1985, and was replaced by a short-lived summer-replacement series called The Comedy Factory. The show returned on August 16, 1985 with reruns of select season 1 episodes, and season 2 began the following month. The plot events are described, below, using in-universe tone. When the series began, George was a sportswriter, Marsha was in law school, Kevin was a sophomore in high school, Heather was in junior high, and Wesley was in elementary school. The Pilot and the six season 1 episodes were directed by Tony Sheehan.

The Pilot was taped in January 1985; all six season 1 episodes were taped from February–April of that same year.

The ad that Marsha has placed seeking a housekeeper is answered by Mr. Belvedere who finds himself needing to adjust to suburban life, while the Owens are needing to adjust to having Mr. Belvedere around. Meanwhile, Wesley's hamster got loose somewhere in the house, Heather's boyfriend is pressuring her into a more serious relationship, and Kevin brings home a bad report card.

Wesley is upset when he and three other classmates are the only ones who are not invited to a classmate's party and Mr. Belvedere suggests that he throw a party of his own. However, during his party Wesley gets a belated invitation and walks out on his guests and then finds himself ridden with guilt later. Meanwhile, Kevin prepares for a ski trip.
