Lily Tomlin has always been a favorite of mine so this review may be a bit biased. She hosted the show for the first time and it was still going through growing pains.
Lily sings a few songs and also does a few stand up routines as various characters including Earnestine and Edith Ann. My favorite skit is the Patty Hearst skit where she starts singing while writing a letter to her sister. Patty Hearst is one of the many pop culture references which unfortunately date so many of the early episodes. (I have had to explain the Claudine Longet skit to many people.)
The cast members are all coming to their own although they are not indivicually mentioned at the beginning of the show.
This episode is one of my favorites from the first season. It still stands up to the test of time.
