Newhart The sixth Season

DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:

Several excellent episodes. Michael & Stephanie decide a wedding is just the thing to put the sparkle back in their relationship in “Till Depth Do Us Part”, parts 1 and 2–I loved how a therapist strongly advised the shallow couple to break up. Then Stephanie discovers someone more shallow (and several IQ points lower) than her in “A Friendship that Will Last a Lunchtime.” The ever-popular Larry and his brothers are shocked to discover that a Darryl is the eldest son in “Prima Darryl” and later decide to adopt in “My Three Dads.” Dick is suspected of being a Martian in “Take Me to Your Loudon” and I started laughing hysterically when Dick chose to give in & act the part. I especially enjoyed seeing a minor character’s chance to take center stage in “Support Your Local Shifflett.”- T. Williams

I keep saying that someday I need to go back and watch more of Bob Newhart’s 1970’s sitcom. And every time I think that, I get sidetracked by a new season on DVD of Newhart, his wonderful comedy from the 1980’s. Season 6 is another strong, hilarious season with these characters I love.If you’ve missed this sitcom, you are really missing out. Bob Newhart stars as Dick Loudon, do-it-yourself author who runs the Stratford Inn in Vermont along with his wife Joanna (Mary Frann). Dick also has a local weekly talk show produced by ultra-yuppie want to be Michael Harris (Peter Scolari). Michael also happens to be dating the Loudon’s maid, spoiled but cut off heiress Stephanie Vanderkellen (Julia Duffy). Rounding out the staff at the inn is handyman George Utley (Tom Poston), whose family has been taking care of the bed and breakfast for generations. Then there are the neighbors, who run the Minute Man Café next door – Larry (William Sanderson), his brother Darryl (Tony Papenfuss), and his other brother Darryl (John Volstad).Over the course of this season, Michael and Stephanie hit a snag in their relationship – they start to feel bored. And they come up with a surprising way to try to get the spark back. Larry makes a startling discovery – he’s not the oldest in the family. Meanwhile, he also takes a vacation and leaves George in charge of the Darryls. The entire town gets alien fever on Halloween. George decides to pursue his lifelong dream of being a used car salesman. Dick gets his dream of working with one of the best illustrators in the how do business while Joanna takes on the job of giving the local history speech.-Mark Baker – Carstairs Considers
