😐 Mixed

Fans have mixed reactions to the dinner party at the bakery, with some finding the first-come-first-served number system unrealistic while others enjoyed the comedic ending and character moments.

I didn't like the we-were-here-first-so-that's-our-number bakery thing. Otherwise, I laughed, particularly at the end when they just forked over the cake and wine and then left.

By the way, someone posted on misc.kids saying that they were considering names for their baby, should it be a girl. They're considering "Stella" and asked if anyone knew of any famous Stellas. Of course, most people thought of the whole Brando thing but the first person I thought of was Elaine. STELLLLLLAAAAAAAA. So funny.

The best part of the Bobka episode had to be when Jerry and that black guy saluted each other with the Cookie.

I totally agree...This episode was horrible! The bakery ticket part was completely unreal!

I WAS COMMENTING TO MY WIFE WHILE WATCHING THE SHOW THAT IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR ANYONE LIVING OUTSIDE OF A LARGE URBAN AREA TO HAVE ANY UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT WENT ON IN THE BOBKA SHOW. YOU'VE GOT TO BE JEWISH TO APPRECIATE IT. WE ALL WENT INTO BAKERIES JUST LIKE THAT ONE TO SELECT A CAKE BEFORE VISITING SOMEONE. REMEMBER WOODY ALLEN BRINGING A CAKEWHEN VISITING ROYALTY IN ONE OF HIS EARLIER, AND FUNNIER, MOVIES? aNYWAY, I DO NOT KNOW HOW THE SHOW CAN MAKE IT WITH THAT BRAND OF HUMOUR -WHICH I FIND BRILLIANT-AND APPEAL TO A NATIONWIDE AUDIENCE.
