I sat through all three seasons on DVD and hardly flinched once. But I did cry and cry at how such a great show was fucked so hard. Robert Culp (and the Bill Maxwell character) were perfect! Perfect!
That show desperately needs to return without the whining kid stuff, the fucking stupid ass Welcome Back Kotter students, and the fear of offending anyone. It should be Maxwell -- even more insane and paranoid -- and Ralph, who's, like, an accountant or something (to really get the Maxwell hatred on the rise).
