I should go to bed. No, I have to see whether the Pacific Princess survives the big storm. Yes, sir, we got ourselves a "hurry-can" right on our humble cathode ray tubes. Look at the Coral Ballroom rock and roll. Yes, indeed, Barbi Benton's, er, blouse, signals a new era in television. God bless, Aaron Spelling, the man who invented the 1970s. He's way better than Norman Lear. I've always been a fan of John Astin. He's great. The Donna Mills subplot is super flat next to a raging hurricane. We've got no time for pathos! Things are blowing around! Also, Donna Mills is bland. I mean, someone found her pretty. Give me Hayley or Juliet any day of the week. Donna just wants to marry her brother. (What?) Gopher gets crushed by a tree. (He's okay.) Mrs. Roper and Gomez Adams fall in love. It's really rather touching as far as these things go. Grumpy Barbi redeems herself. The show wouldn't try this 'Disaster Movie' stuff again. On Kafka's Love Boat Scale, this double-length episode gets 3 * out of a possible 4 *.
