This episode is so bad, it's actually worth watching just to see how out of touch the writers are. Although the lovely Lynn Borden can be seen dancing in an outfit that shows off her legs, it's not enough to overcome the cringe-worthy dialogue. Throw in the fact that it's blatantly obvious that the kids aren't playing the instruments, and it's no wonder that this was the last season.
While supposedly Shirley Booth's health issues were supposedly the reason that the show stopped production, this is an episode that's the epitome of jumping the shark. I imagine the execs at CBS who had to watch this lunged at the chance to pull the plug.
