I hope the guy didn't hurt himself when she pushed him off the stage.

Does anyone else know what the other Matsudas were on this week's shows of Squares?

(No, I did not misspell it. MAZDA in Japanese is マツダ, which is romanized as "Matsuda," which is also the family name of the company's founder, Jujiro Matsuda)

I remember watching this episode first-run. I thought I was going to freak out.

And the look on John's face is PRICELESS!

Jay Johnson, not Jay Jackson. CLoris Leachman was starring on Facts of Life at this point, not CHarlotte Rae. And it's from 4/1/87, not 1988.
