The Bob Newhart Show: Still Crazy After All These Years

B-

In this Hugh Wilson story, Dr. Ned Podbillion (Leonard Stone, who'd be on M*A*S*H the next year) remakes Howard in his own image while Bob and Emily are on vacation.  Meanwhile, Jerry is heading to Mexico.  This is the 100th show of the series, and thus the 100th program for Newhart the person, as well as the 100th program for Marcia Wallace, whose two Brady Bunch episodes make up for her missing a couple for this show.

  1. Just watched this episode on DECADES. I found myself really pulling for Howard to revert back to his old personality. Good episode.

    1. It wouldn't have been the same series without the Howard we knew.
