Featured review
Funny and surreal.
Rose meets Kids TV presenter Mr Terrific, and the pair hit it off, he lands Dorothy a job working on the show. Blanche feels guilty when a furniture supplier delivers her a luxurious bed in error.
I can see from the relatively low score, and the negative reviews that this may not be the most well thought of episode, but I have to be honest, I quite liked it.
It's straight back to the 1980's, the time when I grew up watching kids TV, and this is exactly what it was like, they got it spot on.
It's far from a classic, but there are some hilarious moments, Dorothy's stint on the show was side splitting.
'Who was that nut?' brilliant one liner.
Bob Dishy did a fine job as Mr Terrific, he was so good in the part.
I enjoyed it, 8/10.
