''Throb'' is an American television sitcom broadcast in syndication from 1986 to 1988, created by Fredi Towbin. It revolved around thirty-something divorcee Sandy Beatty (Diana Canova) who gets a job at a small new wave record label, Throb. Beatty's boss is Zachary Armstrong (Jonathan Prince), who had a huge crush on Sandy. Beatty also has a 12-year-old son named Jeremy (played first by Paul Walker and later by Sean de Veritch). Beatty's best friend was Meredith (Maryedith Burrell), a single teacher who lived in her building, and her co-workers included hip business manager Phil Gaines (Richard Cummings, Jr.), and British-born Prudence Anne Bartlett, who was nicknamed "Blue" (Jane Leeves). During the second season, Sandy moved from her original apartment to the recently vacated penthouse in her building. She took in her co-worker, Blue, to help out with rent, but the differences between straitlaced and somewhat conservative Sandy and the free-spirited Blue became more pronounced as they both lived and worked together. However, they were still friends. Notably, it was the first time much of the American TV audience saw Jane Leeves, (she played Sandy's co-worker and later roommate, Prudence Anne "Blue" Bartlett) who later gained fame as Daphne Moon on ''Frasier''. Also notable is the casting of a young Paul Walker, who played Jeremy Beatty for the first season. Walker became a leading man in Hollywood some 15 years later, particularly after his breakthrough role in ''The Fast and the Furious''. The show was produced by Procter & Gamble Productions in association with Taft Entertainment Television, and was distributed by Worldvision Enterprises. The series is owned by CBS Television Distribution. ==Cast== *Diana Canova - Sandy Beatty *Jonathan Prince - Zachary Armstrong *Paul Walker - Jeremy Beatty (1986–87) *Sean de Veritch - Jeremy Beatty (1987–88) *Maryedith Burrell - Meredith *Jane Leeves - "Blue" (Prudence Anne Bartlett) *Richard Cummings Jr. - Phil Gaines 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Throb」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
