Bob Newhart struck sitcom gold for a second time with the 1982 launch of Newhart. The TV comedy featuring Manhattanites who open a Vermont B&B welcomed oodles of quirky characters, fans, and dozens of Emmy nominations. It also introduced the world to “Larry, Darryl, and Darryl” in its second episode, and swapped out a chunk of the cast by its third season. The show was a mainstay for CBS for eight years. But now, decades later, is the sitcom’s stagey setup nostalgic or annoying? Do its offbeat characters move storylines slower than maple syrup? And why is Mary Frann never given one funny thing to say? The Old Roommates book a room and revisit the beloved show through a middle-aged lens. Listen to this.
