So weird for me. I was just watching clips of that show online last night. It was by far my favorite sitcom. RIP Howard. Oh yeah…..Booooger!!

so many subtle things on that show were funny as hell.
the softball game has one of my most favorite scenes and I don’t think it wasn’t scripted.

when he played ‘surfin’ USA’ in the middle of winter.
not dropped dead funny, but entirely relatable to anyone who spent anytime growing in cold climates.
lots of nostalgia stuff like this brings to mind.

The turkey drop was hilarious....

Brings up the age old question:

Baily vs Jennifer
Ginger vs May Ann

I barely remember the show but my Dad had a suit in the closet that 100% would have been worthy of Herb Tarlek.

The on air commercial jingle about Red wigglers "The Cadillac of worms" while Dr. Fever does his best imitation of a hooked fish always cracked me up. This man was a main reason this show worked so well.

That show was so great. So many great lines, and Dr. Johnny Fever was and will always be the man!

The part where his reflexes got better the more he drank was hilarious. Venus teaching about the atom using gang relationships was also excellent. Shame the original episodes can't be viewed as they aired due to music rights issues
