Wild episode all about Jethro and MORE girl troubles.
This time he meets fast food waitress Susie (Carol Booth) who won't give him the time of day. So what does Jethro do? He goes to superstar Dash Riprock (best played by Larry Pennell) who suggests he spice up his image and get a sporty convertible?
Best part of this episode is watching Jethro drive a classy 1950s "purple" Chevy, which is a really cool ride. The detailing is excellent, for all us car buffs. Next, he's coached by Dash to go on a double date -- Dash and Ellie May and Jethro and Susie -- a TOTAL disaster! By the way, how much drive in junk food can Jethro eat???
Yes, if you're thinking LOVE, AMERICAN STYLE here, you are spot on. This wacky episode could have been an inspiration for the classic sitcom, especially the drive in scene. British actress Carol Booth is very good, unfortunately her only appearance on the show. Carol was popular on tv at the time, later to appear on Broadway.
10 Star goofy script by Mark Tuttle, assisted by Ronny Pearlman, who did many sitcoms. Check out Dash's super 60s apartment with all the trimmings. You gotta' love it. And not to forget Miss Jane coaching Jethro on romance? Everything clicks.
Best of SEASON 5 EPISODE 3 remastered color.
