Trivia

Mildred Fleener comes up again in the tag of episode 406: The New Car. The boys win a new car from Dick Clark for winning a radio contest about Opera. The episode was about the frustration of parking in New York. Felix says, " I will never forget the first time my folks let me take the car out by myself. My high school graduation. I tied a raccoon tail to the antenna. I took Mildred Fleener to the prom after the prom we went for triple pistachio sundaes. And we parked in the moonlight. She threw up all over the front seat. You think I was wrong not to kiss her good night?"

Goofs

Murray tries to point how how Felix and Oscar are acting old before their time, so he shows them he can jump the two stairs between the living room and the front door landing. As he moves from the middle of the room to make his jump toward the door, a clear shadow of the boom microphone is seen on the wall as it moves toward the door to follow Murray.

User Reviews

Felix and Oscar try to act young

Felix finds out his high school girlfriend is now a grandmother and now he feels old. He convinces Oscar he is getting old also.

A funny episode with the duo trying to hang out in discotheque filled with younger people. The best scenes are when they try to have some "heavy raps" with some young girls. Oscar tries the new dances but Felix still dances like Fred Astaire.
