Which Type of Episodes Do You Prefer? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Burford Lives!! · 03-09-2004, 11:25 PM

Kristen gave me the idea, and I hope this hasn't been done before, but which type of episodes do you prefer? Home or office?

My favorite episodes are the ones at the office. I love the way Buddy and Sally play off of one another. Although I enjoy Laura, and could look at her all day

I really enjoy the office scenes, including Buddy and Mel mixing it up, and I really enjoy the episodes with Alan Brady in them.

What's your favorite kind of episodes?

All of them!

If I had to pick though, I would have to say that I like the ones at home the best. Any of the ones that have Rob and Laura in them together get my vote. I would loved to have been a part of some of those dinner parties!

Absolutely any scene in which Laura is present gets my vote too! Those are usually the one's at home, but not always.
To quote Carl Reiner concerning Mary, "We (cast & crew members) would sit in the film editor's studio and watch him work. We just liked looking at her!"

That is a difficult question for me to answer! I love them all! Some of my favorites are in the office and some of them are at home. You stumped me with this one!

I have favorite episodes from both home and the office, but overall I prefer the home episodes. It's not that I don't like the office-focused episodes, because I do! There were many great punch lines and funny moments from the series in the office. But I like the Rob and Laura-centered episodes more because of the unique humor they brought to situations. Well, that's my 2 cents for ya!

What if your favorite episode is "The Ghost of A. Chantz"?!?!

I liked them both. This show was unique for its time because it had two distinct sets with two sets of characters and Rob was the central character in both. Also, Sally, Mel and Buddy sometimes interacted with Laura, Jerry, Millie and Richie, giving the show yet another dimension to work with.

I'd say episodes that are 2/3 home with Laura and 1/3 at the office with Buddy and Sally. I prefer Laura-based ones but wouldn't want entirely that, I like a bit of the others too

I prefer the office based episodes.... although both are great.
I loved the episodes with a perfect mix of home and work.

Because with one and not the other -- the show is just any old show.

ScottD · 04-02-2004, 07:42 PM

That is a tough one! I guess I too like the episodes where there's a balance between the two. I love Jerry and MIllie though, and they're always in the home episodes.
