This was a decent episode, not great, but there were some funny moments to make it worthwhile. Although this is supposed to be the first night the Stivic's spend at their new house, they only stay there for a few cold hours, because Mike forgot to call the utility company to turn the water and power on; Archie comments to Mike, "the only thing you remember to turn on is my daughter", and he also feels that the Meathead is purposely delaying leaving so he can get free room and board, AND fridge. After Archie calls Mike a few choice names, both he and Gloria leave the house angry, and soon after, Edith leaves her husband too, while she calls Archie a "meathead" before walking out the door. The funniest moments happen when Archie decides to stay home alone and cook himself a steak dinner, and he messes a few things up. This scene is a must see for all fans of Archie. As I said in a previous review, this great show will slowly reach the point of no return, as the next season really gets mediocre, so enjoy this last good season of this legendary show.

2 horrendous episodes to start season 6

The senseless bickering wasn't funny. The actors strained out their lines in weak attempts of humor. Even dope Archie would be patient to wait a few more days for the Stivics to leave. Archie would never let his pregnant daughter live in a freezing house without utilities. Mike would never be stupid enough to not cantact the utility companies on the proper days. Archie is made mentally challenged when preparing his meal. Wonder what Archie's IQ is?
