Oh gosh, the cocaine "foot powder". :lol: "Andy, I can't feel my feet!" :rofl:

It was so funny to see someone so out of touch with the drug generation putting that powder into his shoes and then freaking out when he realized what it was.

I think that was really the only time you ever saw drugs on the show. Of course, with Johnny it was definitely implied, but you never saw him actually doing them.

catlover79
04-24-2010, 07:22 PM
Yes, it was implied that Dr. Fever loved weed - but he also made it clear in a couple of episodes that he didn't go in for hard drugs.
