Season 2, Episode 28
1/10
A bad show in an otherwise excellent series

Warning: Spoilers
First, a disclaimer: I'm a huge fan of the DVD Show, it ranks as one of my all-time favorite shows, and for the most part the writing was fantastic, the cast was superb, overall just a really well done show, that remains enjoyable 50 years later.

This episode, though, went "off formula" for the show, and should be discarded. Most of the dialog is yelling and/or words spoken in anger, and the "Pickles babble" talk gets way overplayed, to the point of being tiresome and annoying. And, I like Rob... and do not like him getting assaulted not once, not twice, but three times?! This is supposed to be funny, or entertaining, to see Rob get assaulted? I give the series a 9.5/10 rating, but this episode ranks a solid 1, "awful". Skip it.
