Didn't this episode feature Gomez from the Addams Family and the dude who was the Scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz? If so, this was a very stupid episode.

Sure did, Kool. I remember watching it in primetime, but now seeing it as a rerun--my goodness, no wonder DS ratings were tumbling! That and that stupid Save the Mr. Squirrel TV Show episode--Gary Coleman must have been really embarrassed to do these scripts!

I saw it in primetime as well, thinking the episode was off the chain, because Ghostbusters were in pop culture of the day. But looking back at that episode, it smelled like ass!

He was also too old to be around SAM all the time like they were 1 year apart. Damm, they couldn't give him more mature storylines like going on a doube date with Dudley
