What's Happening!!: The Eviction

C+

Joanne Pagliaro wrote the teleplay based on a story by a writer with only one other credit.  Mrs. Watson has sold the building to Mr. Logan (Hal Williams, who had appeared as three different characters on That Girl and who at this point was about six years away from 227).  When the tenants try to organize, Raj and Rerun are evicted, until Shirley and Dee do a better job of organizing.  I might've gone with a B-, but I didn't find any of the other tenants (Big Earl included) interesting or funny.  I do like that that one record, with music heard on other episodes, keeps playing.

Richard Lee-Sung, who often appeared on M*A*S*H, plays Mr. Wing.
