The Bob Newhart Show: The Ironwood ExperienceCBS

Phil Davis's third of four BNS stories is ostensibly about Bob lecturing about sex at the Ironwood Institute, but we don't actually see him interact with anyone except the II director and his offscreen secretary, both of whom follow the institute's clothing-optional rule. The episode is really about Bob and Emily reassessing their marriage and coming to the conclusion that they have a near perfect one. I like how Emily tries to talk seriously to Howard and they admit they see each other as brother and sister (although mother and son is equally plausible). This episode has one of the better tags, with Bob seemingly stripping in his office and tossing his clothes out to Jerry and Carol. Note that when Bob hears, "This is the 1970s," he says he's a 1950s kind of guy.
Bonerz directed.
