Mork & Mindy: Dr. Morkenstein

B-

Bruce Kalish and Philip John Taylor, who'd co-written a What's Happening!! episode, contribute their first of three for Mork.  If the scenes in the deli weren't weak (no offense to Hecht or Thomas, but it's like all the writers don't know what to do with their characters), I'd give this a B because the main plot of security guard Mork giving a robot (body of Robby, voice of Roddy McDowell) emotions and then having to say goodbye is well done.  Also, some of the jokes are genuinely funny, unlike some of the humor in recent episodes.
