Dwayne's Dream- worst episode? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I'm watching Season 3 now, and I have to say Dwayne's Dream is probably my least favorite episode of the series so far.

I call it one of those "Desperate for a plot" episodes. You know, its like Roseanne on Gilligan's Island or Bobby Brady dreaming about Jesse James. I hate episodes that stray from the path of the show. lol.

They must've borrowed the peanut seller outfit from Good Times and had to cut it down short for Haywood Nelson to wear. lol

I agree, it was a poor episode. Besides, I hate dream sequence episodes anyway.

Any episode with dwayne as the focus would be A$$. He was just a weak character. He should have went to the supermarket with mabel-lol

I disagree, I don't think Dwayne was that weak of a character.

Have you seen The Last Page yet? Probably the worst episode yet, especially the 1.98 set they were using for the TC/HD/M&M sequences. Seemed like filler to get to 65 episodes.

I completely disagree. Was he is the funniest character? No. But he was funny in his own way.

hazlenut · 11-07-2005, 11:56 PM

Are you kidding me?! Dwayne was funny in many episodes, just because one happened to suck doesn't make him not funny or weak. I can't think of one sitcom that doesn't have at least one "what were they thinking when they made this" episode. I always blamed that on the writers, not the actors/characters. However I did find Dwayne's character funnier on WHN! then on WH!

Dwayne was a SISSY, and scared of GIRLS, and his character just didn't do anything for me. All he needed was some glasses and he would have been a 1976 Urkel

So your definition of a sissy is someone who's shy??? And I would hope that his character didn't do anything for you, Or I would have to think twice about which tree you swing from.

What I meant was I don't like PASSIVE male TV characters. Never did. I like male characters who are cool and not afraid of everything like gay a$$ dwayne-lol
