Storyline
Featured review
One Of The Best Cinemax Shows
This starts with a very funny Cheryl Kinsey sketch. She does a live show complete with backup singers. She sings "Girls Just Want To Have Fun", performs hypnosis on a shy guy and does a Johnny Carson Carnac joke.
"Oliver Grimley" is a great spoof of "Oliver Twist" done in B&W. Oliver is Ed Grimley and Sid Dithers plays Fagin. Funniest bit is Tommy LaSorda in LA Dodger uniform playing the Artful Dodger. LaSorda is played by character actor Joe Grifasi, who would soon have a good role as Brian Dennehy's police partner in "F/X".
Edna Boil has a commercial saying her store is closing and everything must go.
A funny Melonville Calendar has Yolanda welcoming Sandler and Young. They do a hilarious accapella version of "Real Live Girl".
There is a promo for Sammy Maudlin with kids show hosts Mrs Falbo and Happy Marsden and the credits roll.
