My weird thing about Family Ties is that the show looks and feels much older than Growing Pains despite the shows being pretty much the same age, and also that the central gimmick of the show is completely lost on you if you only know it from watching reruns and it feels generic

Growing Pains was three years ahead of Family Ties -- Family Ties ran 1982-89, Growing Pains was 1985-92

Growing Pains has, imo, a more dynamic/frenetic energy (and louder theme song) that makes it feel more modern than Family Ties, like I knew as a kid that the latter was a "finished" show but I wasn't at all sure about the former

Yeah I think Growing Pains was a show where you could watch the evolution from '80s to '90s TV sensibilities happening in real time

The energy you're talking about is definitely why Growing Pains is the one the Disney Channel picked up to rerun all the time in the '90s
