Maybe I'm reading it wrong. The trivia tidbit left about this "Rockford" episode says that rains were preventing the completion of its filming, as well as that of the first episode of "B.J. and the Bear" which was to air the same night, and that NBC decided to expand both to 90 minutes each. How do you catch up on delayed shooting schedules by increasing the shows' lengths?
I do see an announcement today at TVShowsonDVD.com that it is the 90-minute version of this episode that is being released on the fifth-season DVD.
Trekkies may recognize guest star Sharon Acker from the "Star Trek" episode "The Mark of Gideon," which had the memorably eerie scene of her and Kirk witnessing a bunch of faces looking at them through a window of a seemingly otherwise deserted Enterprise from outside the ship.

I believe I recall that on this syndicated ensemble comedy sketch show, there were recurring skits involving the characters of "Plan Nine From Outer Space," including Criswell and the aliens Eros and Tanna. I could be confusing this show with a similar one that I recall also had "Comedy" in the title at around the same time. Can anyone refresh my memory on that?
I do recall Jan Hooks being in this show, I think after she had already been a regular on "Saturday Night Live," because my boss at the time mentioned how he thought she was so funny on this show, and when he said that, I recognized her name mainly from "SNL." Or it could be that he was talking about seeing her on "SNL" and that reminded him of Jan's earlier (?) work on "Comedy Break." I can't quite remember which is the case.

One of the tragic coincidences of history: Since the Mountain Meadows Massacre happened on 9/11 in 1857, I could just imagine a last line of the movie:
"The date September 11th will live in infamy."
But it would probably be laughed off the screen.
Pardon my finding humor about such a horrible thing.
Even funnier than that is that the site won't accept my comment because there weren't enough lines.
Even mentioning that didn't enable the comment.
But I wonder if that will do it.
