Boy children's services in LA in 1976 work fast...
Rocky is way too trusting.
Starsky and Hutch? No, just goons, hired goons.
I suppose this one takes place before Kim Richards' character moved to Portland with some guy named Larry.
I had a crush on Km Richards back then BTW (WHICH WAS TOTALLY APPROPRIATE WE ARE THE SAME AGE SAVE YOU EMAILS)
The 'Family Hour' was a thing, it was also unconstitutional.
ROBERT WEBBER.
Plus, Bethisode, Dennis, and Rocky.
The slams at psychics are gold.
Webber is so wonderful in roles like this. Even when he says weirdly racist stuff...
We've got Robert Walden just before Lou Grant.
The music business is fuelled by cocaine, or at least it was in the 70s (probably still).
Jim calling Clementi 'swami' is gold as well.
'Realism is not reality' Dr. Steve Cloutier.
'Canada Geese are confused and seething', Dr. Dave Brodbeck.
SEASON 3!!
Sharon Gless! Of course playing a different character than in her last appearance in 'This Case is Closed'. Garner loved working with actors he was familiar with.
John McMartin as Timson Farrell was pretty great.
Look, we've got Angel, we've got Beth.
Oh and Rocky.
Wait, that means we have a grand slam!
'Rick Wakeman and his cape'.
The best thing about this is that I do not have to come up with a 'clever' title.
The second best thing is Mike from Battle of the Network Shows sending us a little bit on hats that we forgot to talk about last week.
What was 1976 like?
Hell, what was season 2 like?
Well we had guest stars, we had the introduction of a couple of recurring characters.
We had Beth.
We had Angel.
We had Dennis.
There is a Vietnam war episode of Love Boat, just putting that out there (S2E18-19).
Look, just listen to the episode.
The obvious funny title here is 'There's a Dave in Every Steve' but I made an editorial decision. Scamming the scammers is alway...
