Every other Wednesday on BuzzSugar, I post a Recast challenge, where I ask you to choose new actors for a classic TV show or movie. The reader who submits the best cast wins a BuzzSugar T-shirt!

I bet you guessed I would get around to this '80s television staple one of these days. This week, the time is right to recast Charles in Charge!

Normally, this is the part of the post where I remind you what the show was about, why it was memorable, etc. But thankfully, the theme song writers did that job for me via these classic lyrics:

New boy in the neighborhood/Lives downstairs and it is understood/He’s there just to take good care of me/Like he’s one of the family/Charles in Charge/Of our days and our nights/Charles in Charge/Of our wrongs and our rights

So basically he's part of the family, but he's a nanny, but the crazy thing is he's — wait for it — a guy!

What young, Scott Baio-esque hunk would you cast as Charles? Who could play his best buddy, er, Buddy? And what about the Powell kids? Who would play Jamie (originally played by ex-Baywatcher Nicole Eggert), Sarah, and Adam? Finally, let's recast Mrs. Powell, Walter Powell, and Charles's mom, Lillian.

Leave your entry in the comment section below, and I'll pick one winner to feature Tuesday, Sept. 2, complete with a "new" cast photo.
