It's Getting Edgy In This Sandbox
learningwithmrsmith2 April 2022
Jerry puts an enormous amount of pressure on his best friend to loan him the $ for a new motorcycle. Then has a petulant snit when Hartley smartly says "no." Soon Bob is acting equally childish and normal Howard fits right in.

Bob's sideburns are starting to bother me. There was a time when upper middle class 70s men wore these 1850 style sideburns. There's a comeback resistant fashion.

I'm pretty sure the older lady playing Bob's childish patient is the same woman featured in the "Were's the beef?" commercials for Wendy's.

At one point Jerry rubs his hands together as he anticipates getting the $ from Bob. Does anyone actually rub their hands together thinking of collecting money? Isn't this melodrama stage business?
