Should Blossom be considered classic sitcom? Mmmprobably not. But to many a 20-something, the NBC sitcom was an unlikely success that, through a blend of irreverence and quirkiness, lasted five seasons and proved culturally resonant in its approach to covering "realistic topics" relevant to teenagers of the nineties.

Of course, the show was culturally resonant for another reason: Joey Lawrence. As Joey, Blossom's hot dum-dum of an older brother (whose requisite catchphrase - "Whoa!" - became an effortless audience pleaser), Lawrence quickly filled the show's role of teen idol. A shaggy-haired beefcake whose sleeveless flanel shirts and R&B jams were considered attractive at the time, Lawrence was the teenybopper's dreamboat of choice, plastered across bedroom walls far and wide.

But what many have since forgotten is that Blossom had another brother: Tony, the recovering alcoholic/EMT driver.

Gynomite points out that, although she was part of the minority, she was much too busy crushing on Michael Stoyanov's character than to have paid any attention Joey Lawrence's mimbo. And she's glad she took the road less taken, because, as it turns out, Stoyanov is an accomplished comedy writer whose credits include Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Mr. Show, and TV Funhouse. He's also since appeared on Reno 911!, The Mentalist, and even had a minor role in The Dark Knight. Not bad, eh?

Each, of course, is entitled to his or her own opinion, so we're curious: were you a Joey or Tony girl (or guy - hey, it was the nineties)? Let us know in the comments.
