12. But Marge - you being the cop makes you the man, which makes me the woman!

16. Burt Campbell - Soap - Life plays funny tricks
Life plays funny tricks...You see what happens in life is this - something bad happens to you and you say “Oh God, look at this bad thing that just happened to me.”

Then you figure it’s over and it will all get good again but then what happens is another bad thing happens and then you say “Pffft, that was a surprise. I mean, two bad things in a row but I guess that’s it for a while ‘cause I just had my quota of bad.”

And then what happens is some awful thing happens to you like everything gets taken away from you and you say “Pfft, well, that’s it, there is nothing else that can happen - I lost everything.” And then life plays it’s ‘funny trick’ - you die.

19. That episode is one of my favorites
And I was so glad to finally find it on the 'net. That show still stands up after all these years - I was LMAO watching that old show. Robert Guillaume as Benton was so great, as were all the cast.
