I have vague memmories of an episode of this show that featured some bearded professor type guy that the oldest sister was infatuated with. He turns mean when the two little kids spill something on him. What episode was that, and what was the actual plot. I don't really remember, as I saw this episode when I was in pre-school
shareI unfortunately haven't seen every episode of this show ( but I have started watching it on MeTV a few days ago ) . I checked IMDB's Episode List could it be this episode ? ---- http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0576827/ ---- . I hope MeTV shows this episode soon it seems good from it's write-up on IMDB .
Thanks grazatt for your subject post .
The episode was called "Think Deep" and it was in the first season, Your right, Cissy was infatuated with one of her teachers and went around quaoting his ideas and Uncle Bill was concered so he invitied the teacher over in the hope he'd show his true colors which as you pointed out
shareTypical television plot trope--any character depicted as having an intellect or IQ even slightly above the viewing audience's presumed mean has of course de facto just got to be a cold, unpleasant fish of a personality. Only the 'just-plain-folks sorts' of average (or less) intelligence can possibly be full of the 'warmth and joy of life', because, of course, they aren't plagued by the nasty habit of thinking about things too much in a critical manner...
Amusing to note that Hollywood's pandering to lowest-common-denominator mediocrity really hasn't changed all that much over the decades--it's still a hugely successful formula, and it still works.
and your point which I guess is to troll here
shareNo, but I can certainly see why you might think that would be the case.
shareI finally re-watched it.I wonder why Jody and Buffy want to have that guy tell them a story anyway?

It was Robert Reed, incidentally who played the mean teacher. Right before he started with the Brady Bunch. Papa Brady, indeed.
