The Creators and The Producers

Bob Brush and Ken Topolsky were both working for "The Wonder Years" since the second season. They also produced the Special Episode. When ABC decided to start a spin-off they thought that Brush and Topolsky would make a perfect couple. With their long-standing experience they were the right choice to create the background of "Buster's Town". Besides their jobs as executive producer (Brush) and supervising producer (Topolsky) of "The Wonder Years" they now became executive producers of "Buster's Town".
Today Brush is the executive producer of "Early Edition", Topolsky currently works as co-executive producer of "Party of Five".

Jill Gordon, "The Wonder Years"' co-executive producer until the end of season four, took over the job of "Buster's Town's" supervising producer while Mark Levin, at the time co-producer of "The Wonder Years", became a co-executive producer.

 

The Composers

Stewart Levin who wrote the music for the first season of "The Wonder Years" and was working now for CBS' "Picket Fences" composed the "Buster's Town" main title together with W.G. Snuffy Walden. Unfortunately the wonderful music - acoustic guitar and piano - was never published on CD. Walden also composed the music of the first season.
