Was this episode considered funny back in 1988??

The only thing that can be said definitively is that it is NOT funny in 2023.

Why did the "comedy" writers think that arguing about stale things would be funny?? Guess what, it's not.

Good thing that Julia is pretty, because all her ranting and raving would certainly get on just about any man's nerves (I know they do mine).

I remember enjoying this show when it was first on. The comedy certainly hasn't aged well.

I have always been mystified by the choice of Delta as the "former beauty queen" when Julia and Mary Jo are both much prettier.

I also don't understand why Anthony is listed in the opening credits in one episode, in the closing credits the next, and then opening credits the episode after that.
