Having Mariska in this episode was pretty cool. The writing of this show is great. I used to watch this with my parents on the weekend with my parents very fond memories. I own all of these on dvd and when I want a dose of them I play them. Watching some Bubba can't hurt, right? Lol. So many Great! Actors in this show. I've never seen another show even close to this, one that can bring up emotions without losing the main theme in an episode. I also like how they sometimes show more personal individual stories, like love lives and family dynamics. They did a really good job intertwining different stories into the show.
