The J.K. Simmons insurance commercial was funnier than this.

I also sensed copying from the "Raising Hope" template in the interactions between the family members. Particularly Leah Remini, who seemed to be trying to channel Martha Plimpton. Miss Remini, you are no Martha Plimpton. And instead of Maw Maw, you get some (unrelated) old guy in a wheelchair.

Don't forget the horrible theme song by Yvonne Elliman. I heard it on the radio once.

Hey Nathan, can I have your old job?

Despite DVD purgatory, I've always loved me some David Rasche. I didn't miss an episode of "Sledgehammer!".

It's louder than a "ping": it's more like a "CLANG"!!!

Dusty in Memphis. Yes, I am gay.

Exceptions: "Gilligan's Island", "F Troop", "Gidget", & "The Flying Nun". I saw all in repeat syndication in the late sixties/early seventies, and they all lasted either 1, 2 or 3 seasons.

She did: it was "The Nancy Walker Show" and lasted less than a season.

Exactly.

"Wel-l-l-l." Actually Lucy started that.

The marriage counseling scene may be hard to watch, but it's some damn good writing, and Harper nails it.

In the Mad parody of the show, Brenda tells Rhoda that she has become a cross between Elizabeth Montgomery and Sandy Duncan. Now that is some neutered ethnicity

Skinner: "But how do I get out of the army?"
Bart: "No problemo. Just make a pass at your superior officer."
Skinner: "Done and done. And I mean done."
Marge: "What are you doing in there?"
Skinner, Bart and Homer (in unison): "NOTHING!"

Barbara Jean should not be hosting a game show.

If you're including Bill Wyman's solo album, what about Mick Jagger's "She's the Boss" ?

As someone who watched "Gomer Pyle:USMC," (yes, I am old) I can tell you that Sgt. Carter never called Pyle by his first name.

She was a natural brunette. They bleached her hair for "Bewitched".

I saw it on TCM some time ago. Great movie.

That quarry worker Chuck was hella hot. Had they showed him before?
