Here is another "Mental Sorbet" that we could use to momentarily forget about those things that leave a bad taste in our mouths.
The cast of Hello, Larry appearing on Diff'rent Strokes.
After struggling to gather ratings, NBC rescheduled it to appear immediately following Diff'rent Strokes and had it written in that Larry Alder and Phillip Drummond were old army friends (with Drummond's company becoming the new owners of Larry's radio station), thereby allowing several crossover episodes on both programs in the hope of raising Hello, Larry's popularity.
Hello, Larry had the misfortune of appearing on NBC at a time when that network was at its nadir in the ratings. The show was greeted by viewers who had high expectations based on Stevenson's M*A*S*H association but quickly gained an extremely bad reputation as a weakly written, unfunny sitcom.
Stay Tuned
