Edward Stratton III likes Pac-Man, pinball machines
and electric trains. Ricky Stratton is mature, sensible
and understands computers. But Edward is in his 30s,
while son Ricky is only 12. Edward is very rich. He
also talks like Goofy, has the brains of a speed bump
and lives in a mansion furnished by Santa Claus. In
the pilot episode, his fortune has been siphoned off
through computer chicanery by a scheming business
manager while Edward was playing with his choo-choo
trains. Along comes Ricky, who spots the scam and
restores Daddy's bucks. Ricky had been raised by
his divorced mother, and had never known his father.
After being shipped off to military school, Ricky
finagled an invitation to move in with his wealthy
father and soon helped him learn to be a parent,
while Edward taught him a little about having fun.
Kate was Edward's pretty secretary who he would
eventually marry in 1985. Kate, along with Leonard
his lawyer and Dexter his fussy business manger all
do what they can to get the childlike Edward Stratton
III through life. Dropping in occasionally is Grand-
father stratton, a stuffy tycoon who had been estranged
from his immature son until little Ricky came into the
picture. Ricky's friends were: Derek, a conniving con-
artist; Alfonso, Dexter's nephew; Freddy and J.T.
The series moved from NBC to first-run syndication
its final season (1986-1987).
