Barney Miller s2 coming to DVD...with Linda Lavin - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Linda Lavin makes 4 guest appearances as Det. Janice Wentworth in Season 2 of Barney Miller, and that season on DVD (1975-76) comes to DVD on January 22. As we all know, LL left the show after that season to star in Alice...and the rest is history!

I already have Season One, I can't wait for S2. I thoroughly enjoyed the episodes with Linda. I just love her!

Her guest appearances on BM were always fun. The best examples are when Wojo and Wentworth go undercover as a married couple in a hotel robbery investigation ("Hotel"), and the time Wentworth and Wojo (in drag) go out on park detail with hilarious results ("Heat Wave"). "Heat Wave" is also the episode where Chano's papers are blown across the room by a new fan the janitor brings in. Chano ends up screaming in Spanish at the guy.

Oh yeah...that scene is hilarious (Heatwave)! I can see it in my head right now.

They don't make 'em like BM anymore.

Barney Miller was one of a kind - that's for sure.

I'm looking forward to Season 2 coming out. Too bad it couldn't come out in December, it would have made a good Christmas present. (lol)

I know! I would've liked it for a Christmas gift. Oh well.

Ann - another favorite of yours guest stars in Season 2 of BM. That would be none other than David L. Lander aka Squiggy! He appears in the episode "Hot Dogs" as a prisoner.

^ I'd like to see that. I don't remember the episode off hand but I bet its a good one.
