35. My Favorite Sitcom Ever!

Sun Oct 22, 2023, 09:50 PM

Oct 2023

Especially the episode where Johnny and Venus had a cop administer the drunk test, and Herb dressed up as a giant carp, and did battle with the PIG pig. My favorite was Venus when he says, "cops got a hat, I want a hat, and when Mr. Carlson lends him his ridiculous fishing cap," he says "thanks for the lid Art." I loved the whole cast but Johnny and Venus were my favorites.
