These Friends of Mine: A Kiss Is Still a KissABC
April 6, 1994
Sitcom
DVD
B-
Suzanne Martin's first of five Ellen stories has Ellen, Adam, and Holly answering personal ads, with mixed results. This is as good a place as any to note how accelerated relationships feel on this show, with people (in their 30s) referring to "boyfriends and girlfriends" after a matter of weeks or even days. I don't know if that's a '90s thing or a television thing. Also, we learn that platonic roommates Ellen and Adam had one date and she claims to have forgotten they kissed.
Tracy Tweed, who plays Tara, was Girl #2 on Who's the Boss? a couple years earlier. Daniel Edward Mora would again play a Deliveryman this season. This is the first episode shown, but not taped, with David Higgins as snarky "brewmaster" Joe Farrell, and, yes, by this point in filming, Maggie Wheeler had left the series. This is the first to air of the five TFoM episodes directed by Andrew S. Weyman, who had done most of the Season Four and Season Five episodes of Roseanne.
