Episode #254: Goodness Gracious
It's a '70s adventure worthy of the most plot-bending Quinn Martin, the sexiest Aaron Spelling, the cleverest MTM, and the flashiest Goodson-Todman productions. Please pay close attention to Jack Hammer's defense of color-blind love, Swamp Dogg's self-appointed job title, Calvin Scott's last stand for the family plan, and the Chi-Lites' attempt to make it necessary to renew one's marriage license every few years, like a driver's license.
