I really liked the show titles.
I like Barbarino as an orderly and the episodes at the hospital. Beau DelaBarre was a good addition to the Sweathogs as he was differerent. Kotter and Woodman moving up in there positions and Julie working at the school...all around a very good season. Though they should have gotten Barbarino for the wedding episode and made that the last show. |

I didn't like it. They may have been able to survive the departure of Travolta if Mr. Kaplan hadn't all but left due to behind the scenes friction. What a shame.

I'll admit that it was nice to see Julie with her new grown up look. (It's as if she was ambushed by Stacy and Clinton from "What Not to Wear"!) I missed John Travolta being a regular, though. Beau was good, but not as funny as Vinnie!

I don't hate the 4th season like most people, however it was still the worst season of the show, IMO. It's been over 10 years since I saw any season 4 episodes, but I remember liking it a little bit. It was nice to see Julie get more screen time and though I hated Beau, the other sweathogs were still funny. I missed Barbarino and Mr. Kotter but the show was still watchable.

I think what killed season 4 was that on top of losing Kaplan and Travolta, the writing was just bad. The people that were brought on to write for the show had never worked on the show before. I don't think that Beau was a bad addition, but he wasn't a well written character.

once you remove the LEADER of a crew it's all over, Taking away Vinny from the sweathoggs was like taking RAJ from rerun and dwayne taking Raj from Larry and Curly taking Richie from Ralph and Potsie It's just not the same anymore when the leader is gone |
