Yeah things on TV weren't as politically correct as they are now I wished he had tripped up the stairs after he left the apartment, or have come him come back in another episode with his eyesight recovered for another showdown.

I feel bad for him because he was blind, but had he hit me then refused to leave till I hit him back, and then decked me again for "trying to hit a blind guy", I probably would have opened the front door, grabbed him, and tossed him down the stairs.

I really didn't like that episode! I kind of bummed me out and was a little creepy!

I agree with Bonniegirl---it was creepy and just plain upsetting. It's okay if bad things happen to the trio or if Jack gets his comeuppance, but if there's no resolution or happy ending then it really throws off the formula. TC always had a very cozy vibe--you knew it would all be okay in the end, but this episode really does not give you that reassurance. Felt creepy that someone could come in and do what he liked to the MAIN CHARACTERS with no punishment.

When I first watched this episode I was sure the guy was faking blindness to get away with being a jerk, but that was never revealed. I still kind of half-believe he was faking.

EXACTLY!!! It was a very unusual , dark episode. TC is usually so lighthearted and silly, I didn't like this one at all. If it comes on I switch the channel.
