    I remember this the first time around....
    I hadn't seen it since then and found it quite by chance just recently. I still laugh out loud and enjoy each episode as much as I did first time round. I understand why they stopped after the tragic death of Gary Olsen. But could it be time to look at the family now with Bill a widower and her children with their own families. Andrew, do it now.
