" I have a friend that helps with people with problems like ours." "He buys cars?" "No he steals them. Hello this is goldilocks can I speak to papa bear?" One of My FAVE episodes of this incredibly funny show.
John Byner was also in the episode when Felix is hired to shoot the "fat commercial" with Oscar as the subject...the guy was great. They don't make comedies like this anymore, pure genius.
"Walk on," is a theatrical term loosely meaning a very good short role. I don't know the idiomatic origins of it. In television sitcoms it generally refers a role that uses a character not featured in the show's regular cast.
Usage examples:
"Are you auditioning for that show."
"No, it's a terrible play, but there's this great walk-on for a older man."
Or,
"Did you see Wilfred Brimley in that film? That walk-on practically stole the film."
This particular episode was a riot, I laughed all night. Wish they made comedies like this again instead of all the sex and sick crap that are the ingredients of todays garbage.
Byney plays the perfect New Yorker here

"Hey, parking's my life! Hive me a street and I'll give you an ordinance.". LOL!
Having been to NYC many times I don't understand why anyone would want to own a car there.

Wow, i never noticed the continuity error here. Their address was always 1049 Park avenue, not Central Park West. Still so funny.
