My Two Dads began airing in the fall of 1987 on NBC Sunday nights at 8pm. The sitcom starred Greg Evigan, who had previous fame from the TV series B.J. and the Bear and Paul Reiser, who later starred in the acclaimed TV comedy, Mad About You. The two played lifelong friends, Joey Harris and Michael Taylor resepectively. Rounding out the star cast ensemble was newcomer Staci Keanan (real name: Anastasia Sagorsky) in her first ever starring role playing Nicole Bradford, the possible daughter of one of the dads.
A long time ago, Joey and Michael were seeing the
same woman, Marcia Bradford. Soon, Maricia was pregnant with Nicole but died shortly after giving birth. Unable to determine who the father was, both Michael and Joey were appointed Nicole's legal guardians.

Theme Song Lyrics and Opening Credits
"You Can Count On Me" written and performed by Greg Evigan.
You can count on me.
No matter what you do.
You can count on me.
No matter where you go.
I'm standing by your side.
I'll be right behind.
No one loves you more than I do,
Put your hand in mine.
I can see a part of me in you.
A little something special that comes shining through.
I hear it in your laughter,
And I feel it when you cry,
I will be right there for you,
Until the day I die.
You can count on me.
No matter what you do.
You can count on me.
No matter where you go.
You can count on me.
