The Bob Newhart Show: Desperate SessionsCBS
February 26, 1977
Sitcom
DVD
B-
A pre-CHiPs Robert Pine is on the other side of the law in this story by Michael Zinberg and Michael Davidson, as a bank robber who holds Bob hostage. Mr. Carlin's resentment of having to share his session is the best part, although Walker Edmiston, who was a Krofft regular, is pretty good as Sgt. Webber, who's been watching too much Dragnet. Note that the robbery is very specifically set on Tuesday, April 5, 1977, since the date is displayed in the bank. That was indeed a Tuesday, but this also means that this episode is set before the previous one and may explain why Bob has forgotten both buying Emily an anniversary gift and filing his taxes.
