The Bob Newhart Show: We Love You...Good-Bye

The Bob Newhart Show: We Love You...Good-Bye
CBS
November 30, 1974
Sitcom
DVD
B-

In this Charlotte Brown story, Emily attends and then starts hosting Bob's consciousness raising group for women.  The show and Bob are both still grappling with feminism, with mixed success.  Note that Bob was 35 when he got married (and Emily recently said she was almost 30 then), but that doesn't match up to his age on other episodes.  And Jerry claims to be six very important years younger than Bob, I'm guessing 1931 and 1937, ish, for their birth years.

Joan Tompkins, who previously was Bob's Aunt May, as well as Carol's mother on the Brady Bunch pilot, here plays Mrs. Cowens.  This has the last appearance of Rhoda Gemignani as Joan Rossi.  Bonerz directed again.
