Being Careful

[Smartboy]

Shortly after actor Harvey Korman died, I posted a lot of messages about this reality on a lot of different boards including this one. For those of you who do not know about him, he was the voice of the Great Gazoo from "The Flintstones". Gazoo was very intrumental in teaching people to be careful what they wish for because they just might get it! Fred and Barney needed to be taught this lesson time and again! However that was a sereis in which that lesson was the plot of just about every other episode. In other sereis like "The Brady Bunch" or "Gilligan's Island" it was only used occasionally. As far as I can remember, there was only one instance in which this was the premise of a "Will and Grace" episode. The one that I am thinking of is a the two-parter called "Someone Old, Someplace New, Something Borrowed, Someone's Due". Maybe if Will and Grace had watched more "Flintstones" growing up, they would have thought more carefully before wishing for the bigger apartment and calling the one that they had a dump! If my memory is correct, the last message that I posted on this page about this particular issue is called "The Kitchen Step". You would have to read that post to understand what the title means. However, that thread just like all of my other threads about that episode has zero responses! I have no idea what it is about that two-parter that fans do not like to discuss! In any event, I am now posting this message just in case there are some people who are new to this board and would like to offer their views on that episode and the lesson that it taught.
