This Year's Riot

This episode was on a couple of weeks back, and I noticed two things. One of them was pretty obvious, and the other is crass, but humorous.

First, the obvious - Grossman's nephew was played by the same actor who was cousin Oliver on the Brady Bunch.

Second, the crass. When the girlfriend of the drug dealer is having a conversation with him on the beach, her shirt has been pixelated. At least, this was the case on the MeTV broadcast. I guess it must have been cold outside or something. I hadn't noticed this on other episodes, but it was distracting on this one, so it drew my attention.

Overall, Season 6 continues to amaze me with how horrible it was. Off the top of my head, there has been an episode with a Robot (Short Circuit), UFO (ET), Orangutan (Every which way but loose), and one where Bruce goes undercover into a high school. Wow.

He was also Michelangelo's voice in the Ninja Turtles movies.

One question I had about the episode was who was Mr. Jacks? Was he the guy with the beard that was running the kids off? He was played by western star of old Allen Case. I could not find any later day pics of Case to compare.

RIP Ron Swanson. Writers created your awesomeness in S1 and killed it in S7
