It seems that TBNS lost one of its directors - Dick Martin died yesterday at age 86. So sad. He directed about 11 or 12 episodes, plus the 1991 reunion movie.

Condolences to the cast of TBNS on the loss of one of their favorite directors -

Which episodes did he direct, Donna? I remember Mr. Martin's name coming up a few times in the commentaries.

^ I haven't seen any of those - bummer. I've only seen the first four seasons. Thanks, Donna. Anyway, may Mr. Martin :rip:.

Yeah, it's hard to see the 5th and 6th season shows unless you taped the whole series way back when in the 90s (when it ran on Nick-at-Nite) or you happen to own some of the episodes on Columbia House or Fox-at-Home video. I'm fortunate that I own 3 of those episodes on commercial VHS, and I happened upon a DVD of the reunion movie. (Someone's transfer from VHS to DVD, I'm sure.)

On tape I have: Who Was That Masked Man? (S.6)
Carlin's New Suit (S.6)
A Day in the Life (S.6)
