The show has already done its own versions of The Karate Kid, The Breakfast Club and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, but in the upcoming Season 5 premiere, The Goldbergs is going somewhere weird.
TV Guide has an exclusive first look at images from the premiere, which features Weird Science star Ilan Mitchell-Smith.
ABC’s The Goldbergs is perfectly happy being trapped in 1980-something, and homages to the decade’s most memorable bits of pop culture have become a trademark for the series.
In the episode, Adam tries to build Barry (Troy Gentile) the perfect girlfriend, just like Mitchell-Smith and Anthony Michael Hall tried to do in Weird Science.
