As the first episode of Wandavision parodied The Dick Van Dyke Show. It was useful to seek out the pilot.
Would you believe it, the first episode is Rob Petrie (Dick Van Dyke) and his wife Laura (Mary Tyler Moore) are invited to a party given by Rob's producer boss. Only Laura is worried that son Richie is ill. He is not eating his cupcake.
Wandavision had Wanda and Vision having his boss round the house for a surprise evening dinner party.
Rob is the head writer on The Alan Brady Show along with Buddy Sorrell and Sally Rogers.
It is here the gags flow and this is the heart of the show.
At the dinner party scene as Laura frets over son Richie who has been left with a babysitter. Rob, Buddy and Sally provide the entertainment with song and dance. Buddy does quickfire jokes, Sally does a Jimmy Durante impression.
Dick Van Dyke displays surefooted dancing and timing.
The weak point is actually Laura being unsure about whether to go to the dinner party and fretting about it. It just went on too long.
