Episode 78 - Dave and Steve Check Out Your Funny Box
03/07/25 • -1 min
This one has almost everything.
Recurring actors in different roles,
A mobbed up comedian.
A guest star from Petticoat Junction!
A guest star from Right Guard ads.
Could you ask for anything more?
It also has a serious discussion about coming out and being closeted. It's handled pretty well, especially for a tv show from 1977. The scene, near the end of the episode, is one of the most powerful things either of us have seen on the show up to this point,
It even has Lt. Diehl! It's the last time we will see him until one of the reunion movies.

Episode 77 - The Steve and Dave Show
Last week's title was awful, this one wrote itself.
Did we remember to do the Spotlight? Listen and fine out.
Lots of psychology content in this one.
I would have preferred Dr Robert Hartley.
Angel is fun this week.
The Firebird flies at one point this week too!
Some nice commentary about the surveillance state in this one. Though it shows that state as at best inept.
For some reason 'feed you buckwheats' stuck with me since 1977.
David Chase is testing out Sopranos material, I swear.
DRAMATIC IRONY!

Episode 79 - Steve and Dave Nevermind about Quickie Nirvana
Yes it has been a while. We both have had things.
I am proud of this title.
This one is funny.
This one has Jan Curtin's cousin Valerie, who does a pretty good job. Oh she also co wrote the script for And Justice For All. So 'I'm out of order, you're out of order', that's her line. OK, we don't know if it is hers or Barry Levinson, to whom she was married at the time, but I'm giving it to her.
Karma is way more complicated than people think.
'Are you here for pre death'?
Gordon looks like a VP academic.
Steve and I both have mixed feelings on this one.
I don't think we've seen a many months later flash forward like this.
