March 25, 1986 –

We all got to meet Cousin Balki for the first time when Perfect Strangers, Knock Knock, Who’s There? premiered for the first time.
The producers originally developed the series to air in 1985. But Bronson Pinchot was already committed to Sara. When that series was cancelled, the producers quickly hired Pinchot and continued developing their series to air in 1986.
