Interesting pre-Alice "reunion" :) - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Was watching an old episode of Partridge Family (which was pre-Alice). Of course, Dave Madden (who played Earl on Alice) was a star on the show, but the episode also featured Vic Tayback and Lou Frizzell (Flo's boyfriend Bubba)
The episode, if you're interested, was "Forgive Us Our Debts".

I do remember Dave Madden when he was on The Partridge Family. I also recall seeing Vic Tayback (Mel) on an episode of All in the Family. That was a funny episode. Vic was playing the role of an old friend of Archie's who became the foreman of the loading dock that Archie worked at. LOL.

Didn't that Partridge Family episode also have the fellow who played Schneider on One Day At A Time in it?

Nah, that was another episode that also featured Vic Tayback. He was a guest star 3 different times on that show. The one that also had Schneider was called "Danny and the Mob":

How can it be a "reunion" if it happened before the show premiered??

Here's a bit of trivia: both Linda Lavin and Vic Tayback appeared in the first season of Barney Miller. Alas, not in the same episode.
