Review of Arnie

8/10
If a show is memorable or makes you think...
21 February 2020
I made it a point as a kid to always watch this show. There was something about the chemistry between HB and SAL. My memories: 1. Back then "Polock" jokes were regrettably the rage. This show was the first to point out that these jokes were in poor taste. Although it was a meta-joke, it still made a point that landed with me. 2. When the hourly workers went on strike and some manager tried changing the 5 gallon water bottle, spilling water everywhere. To this day I still think of that image when I change water bottles at home. The takeaway: just because you're paid more doesn't mean the other guy doesn't know things.

This show was thoughtful, well acted, and had a strong moral compass.
