What's Happening!!: ChristmasABC

This Orenstein & Turtletaub story has Mabel giving up a chance to spend Christmas with her children because she knows how important it is to Bill that he get to be with them that day. I like that Dee is still not 100% comfortable with Bill, even saying she hates him, since she obviously doesn't remember him from when she was a baby. I also like that Bill's girlfriend Loretta (Rosalind Cash) is presented as a nice person, while on some shows she would've been a bitch and/or bimbo, and it's good to know she'll return. The episode is a bit too slow-moving though.
