ONE, TWO -- CHA CHA CHA!
tcchelsey23 January 2024
With the Cha Cha sweeping the country at the time, you know there had to be some dancin' and prancin' in this super episode.

10 Stars.

The perfect(?) job comes Maynard's way at S. Peter Pryor College -- escort for the lovely ladies whose boyfriends are away. Beware: it's spoiling! Maynard dons some fancy duds and is escorting the ladies all over the place, definitely a part of the in-crowd!

One problem. Dobie is the unofficial observer and he doesn't like what he sees. Could all this new found fame and bliss ruin his best friend's life? A gigolo in the making??? Time to have a talk. In between all the drama, check out Maynard and Herb doin' the Cha Cha and havin' a blast.

Classic stuff all the way.

Look for a very young Bill Bixby as Roger, reportedly in his tv debut, athough he did appear in bit parts in two other tv shows. Bill was discovered working as a lifeguard and offered some tv roles. The rest is history. Popular actress Diane Jergens plays Bernardine and is always fun. Also cast is Mary Mitchell as Darlene, best remembered for the cult horror film, DEMENTIA 13.

A gotsta see for 60s Cha Cha fans. SEASON 3 EPISODE 5.
