Neighbors Marathon
Watched a "Neighbors" marathon last night (eps that featured other people who live in the
Mertz building). Here's what I put together:
The Young Fans (Lucy says that Peggy lives "next door"; not certain if Arthur does. Doubt it,
as Lucy's never heard of him until Peggy brings him up as a boy in her class).
New Neighbors (Never a huge fan of this episode, which goes all over the map. The chair scene
is hilarious, and I love K.T. Stevens. But the gun and shooting stuff does NOT play well today,
especially given recent circumstances. But it was fun to give a whirl again).
No Children Allowed (Yes, I actually watched this one for like the tenth time in three months.
But this one introduces Mrs. Trumbull, so I enjoyed it all over again).
Oil Wells (One of my all-time faves, and those "neighbors from Texas" are a hoot! Love
the always under-appreciated Sandra Gould. A great entry from season three).
Little Ricky Gets a Dog (Was never a huge fan of this episode, and hadn't watched it in years. I
was pleasantly reminded of how strong this offering really is. Fred is delightful in this, and I love the way the little pooch moves them all. Only sad part is Ball and Arnaz were REALLY
showing their age by this point).
