For example, the episode in this still was pure genius. Wally Cox was the guest star, and of course the whole 24 mins. focuses, literally, on &mdash; what else? &mdash; &ldquo;eye contact&rdquo; so that the lonely Cox character could find a date. They need to make more TV like this nowadays.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The whole series is a gem. Cosby is frequently put upon and comes off as hapless, sort of like the Alan Arkin character in <em>Rafferty &#038; the Highway Hustlers<\/em>, which co-starred local Nichols Canyon resident Sally Kellerman and teen burnout MacKenzie Phillips.
