The Bob Newhart Show: Change Is Gonna Do Me GoodCBS
October 4, 1975
Sitcom
DVD
B-
Gordon and Lynne Farr's story has its moments, like the deadpan "manager's specials" over the supermarket loudspeaker, but I feel like it didn't completely gel. It's the only BNS episode directed by John Erman, who did a bunch for That Girl, but I don't think it's his fault. And the "Emily is in a rut" plot, although done better on the Katherine Helmond episode, is by no means bad. This is just an inevitable falling off for the short streak at the beginning of the season. Note that Bob's mother's maiden name is Smith.
Box Boy Brian Byers would later be on M*A*S*H and Three's Company.
