Holmes and Yoyo (1976–1977)
9/10
Hoping for a DVD release
7 November 2010
... John Schuck was much better the same year opposite Sharon Gless in TURNABOUT ...

"Holmes & Yo-Yo" aired during the 1976-77 season; "Turnabout" was not the same year, it ran for seven weeks in early 1979.

I thought the chemistry between Richard B. Shull and John Schuck was something that was developing as the series progressed. The humor was a bit silly at times, but the same can be said for even the best two-man teams -- Laurel & Hardy, Gleason & Carney, etc. It was easily more entertaining than most other sitcoms of the 1976-77 season. If there had been a second season, we'd be seeing the series in syndication and on DVD.

Both sitcoms deserve to be remembered, and released on DVD so a new generations of fans can discover them!

The Lucy Show: Lucy Flies to London (1966)
Season 5, Episode 6
7/10
Followed by the "Lucy In London" special
21 July 2010
Actually, she did get to London!

The week after this episode aired, CBS aired the one-hour special "Lucy in London" which was conceived as a continuation of this episode. Or maybe it was the other way around -- maybe this episode was conceived to make viewers look forward to next week's special.

I agree, watching the episodes in syndication kind of leaves you hanging, since the special wasn't syndicated along with the rest of the series.

For more information on the October 24, 1966 special "Lucy in London," see IMDb's entry under that title.
