‘The Goldbergs': Adam’s Birthday Party Gets Chaotic in ‘Sixteen Candles’ Tribute Episode Tease (Video)
“The Goldbergs” is kicking off its Season 6 premiere with a tribute to the John Hughes classic “Sixteen Candles,” and fans’ first look at the mayhem is here.
After Adam’s parents forget the most important birthday of his teenage life, the party he does get goes quickly off the rails. In the episode, which was announced last month, Adam’s parents are distracted with Barry and Lainey’s engagement and Erica’s band ambitions.
“Why did John Hughes make this seem so whimsical and fun?” Adam asks as we see pizza spinning on a record player and foam coming out of the vents.

“The Goldbergs” Season 6 premieres Sept. 26 on ABC.
