Bad Screen Test
Hitchcoc10 March 2023
Dick is thrilled when one one of his how-to books on plumbing is going to be used for a video. It will be done at his TV station. He gets up there but Michael can't leave things alone. Stephanie shows up all glittery with a rainbow colored tool kit. As it turns out, the producers find Dick to be too boring, having a stutter, and shifty eyes. Bob Newhart's persona. So they get some big dumb stud to take over. It's pretty funny. For theatre of the absurd, add Larry, Darryl, and Darryl starting an escort service. An attractive guest sees their brochure and hires them with somewhat dire consequences involving bat cave. Very good episode.

Newhart goes video

Dick has a chance to do a how to video for one of his books about plumbing.

A funny episode where Dick tries to do the video himself but is told he is too boring. He is replaced by a handsome hunk played by Alan Autry (former Green Bay Packer and later played Bubba on the TV version of In The Heat Of The Night).However he knows nothing about plumbing and makes a shambles of the set. A funny subplot has Larry and the Darryls opening an escort service, their first client is treated to a tour of a bat cave.
