Not a bad episode, but the character names are all wrong. "Gordie" is actually called "Richie" all through the episode and his father, "Mr. Pratt" is actually addressed as "Mr. Peterson" by Donna. IMDB doesn't correct this because the characters are actually named wrong in the closing credits of the episode. How does this sort of thing happen?? Didn't anyone in the sixties proof-read the credits before they were aired!? Very strange....and slip-shod.
