That was One World. I was glad there was an Asian girl both shows.

What was the name of the teen show with the foster family with the whole ethnic rainbow of kids?

"One World". That show was terrible. It was just too far contrived. They got so into the concept of promoting diversity that they forgot to create a good show in the process. And then two of the teenagers got a crush on each other, which again was another contrivance to get a romatic pairing on the show.

There was some other show on TNBC about four teenage girls who were, like, going to school or something, and that show did the same thing. The show leaned too hard against the concept of promoting rolemodels for young girls at the expense of the quality of the show's writing and characters. It was just boring.

Ahhh I loved this show! It came on right after SBTB on Saturday mornings where we lived. I thought Kelly Packard was gorgeous and wanted to look like her and Brent Gore was so hot to my 12 year old eyes. Jay Franke was sort of cheesy, like how many high school students have motorcycles like that.

I only remember watching it for a year or two, I had no idea it was on for 4 seasons. I remember watching Hang Time occasionally but it was too sports-centric for my tastes.

I recently (today) found 'lots and 'lots of YouTube clips! I am having a ball rewatching how badly acted and cheesy this show was! And Jake and Tiffany! And Tiffany on steroids! Bwa!

I hated Hang Time. So much seeting hatred for that show.

I also remember the Jake character talking about being "Czechoslovakian". Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't you either Czech or Slovakian?

After 1993, yes. Before January 1, 1993, it was one country.

I remember this show. I watched it occasionally, but didn't like it as much as SBTB.

I was watching when Jake and Tiffany get back together and I remember squeeing when I was just a wee little thing back then. But rewatching it now I was all WTF?!? Jake and Lorena break up and 15 minutes later Tiff tells him that they should take a risk and next thing you know, they are back together! First of all, Lorena hooking up with him was wrong because I would've cut a bitch, but then one of your best friend's hooking up with you bf THE SAME DAY you break up?!?

Hahaha... that is some serious acting right there. I was moved to tears (from laughter). Good thing that everything is solved within two minutes too.
