Hello Larry episodes - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Hi
I'm new to this board but this is a show I've recently discovered due to my interest in Donna Wilkes. I recently discovered that three full episodes of Hello Larry have been put on YouTube. See these were the first time I've seen this show, at least to my memory since I was 8 when it was first on, and I was surprised how much I enjoyed it. It's corny but made me laugh and both Kim Richards and Donna Wilkes were great on the show.
The espisodes are The Hitchhiker, Mother Morgan, and Peer Pressure and are good episodes for anyone who hasn't seen the show outside of Different Strokes and have been curious as to what it was like. This show while not spectacular was certainly better than the 12th worst show of all time like TV Guide tried to say. I hope those who take the time to watch them enjoy them.
BTW has anyone ever found episodes 11 and 13? Every collection I've seen for this show is missing those two episodes.

I'm sure that you are refering to

(11) Larry's Bad Back and (13) My Sister the Criminal

I saw every episode when I was 10 y/o I had a thing for Kim Richards. I have since collected the episodes available but these two are missing from my collection as well. I think episode 13 was pre-empted by a news event. We didn't get a VCR until 1982 so I couldn't tape them, and I've never seen them in syndication either. Some of my episodes are from Brazil and have subtitles...how about you?

I recently now have all but the two missing episodes and I do enjoy them. The show was developing into something but sadly no one was watching it.

I really wish I could find the two missing episodes because it really bugs me because it feels so incomplete. I can't help but feel that somewhere out there someone has them and can't communicate with us. I'm thinking of writing the Retro Television channel to see if they might run it. I hope they turn up someday while I'm still alive.
