Titled “The Doctor Is Out” (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0612811/) and originally airing on October 29, 2003 (https://www.tvtango.com/listings/2003/10/29/its_all_relative), this installment was penned by Ellen Byron & Lissa Kapstrom and directed by Ken Levine (https://kenlevine.blogspot.com/2015/02/actors-ive-worked-with-who-wont.html). It’s a great sample of the series (https://jacksonupperco.com/2019/12/18/short-lived-sitcom-potpourri-v/) because it reveals the differences between the two families, as the girl’s fathers throw a Cole Porter-themed Halloween party where everyone must use his songs/shows as inspiration for their costumes — a concept totally foreign to the guy’s blue-collar Boston parents.
