Hilarious!
Movie-ManDan5 October 2018
Warning: Spoilers
Danny and Joey became best friends within seconds of meeting and have stayed that way nonstop ever since. The brotherhood is always nice to see and Saget & Coulier deliver. Only they can provide the chemistry.

Gender-bending was one of the easiest ways to get a laugh in comedy. (I say "was" because there are so many SJWs these days that would call Danny and Joey dressing as women "brave" and not wanting them to change.) Most sitcoms attempt this and I've always seen it succeed. This is no exception.

As Chi Sigma Sigma brothers, Danny disgraced them by being overpowered by women allowing them to steal the prized seal. With the reunion coming up, Joey convinces Danny to dress up as women to crash the Lambda Tau Delta sorority reunion and reclaim the seal. My biggest problem with this episode must be addressed now: all these years and the seal has not been returned? Think about it. It has not been returned or reclaimed? I guess the writers thought "what other way for the guys to dress up as women?" Seeing Joey and Danny fail at impersonating ladies is as funny as it sounds. Of course the truth comes out and one of the sisters who happens to be a cop arrests them. After some time in jail, charges are dropped and Danny is angry at Joey's idea. But his anger can't last. The basis is best friends doing weird things together because that's what friends do.

There are two subplots. The first deals with Jesse being fed up with urban life and decides to spend a day in the wilderness. His time there is worse.

The second subplot has Kimmy and DJ accidentally breaking the tv, therefore Kimmy being barred from the house for 3 weeks. That's an awfully nice punishment! TVs were huge and expensive as heck back in 1990! It isn't like today with people having seven tvs in one house. In 1990, tvs were harder to seize. If that was my dad, both me and my friend would have been brutally belted. With all that happens with the sorority and jail, Kimmy is a last resort to babysit Stephanie and Michelle. Danny is impressed and lightens the punishment.

Funny episode with great brotherhood moments.
