BOB - Michiana Moon

Air Date/Released Sunday, March 23, 1997
Station/Studio TVLand / Paramount

Artist Bob McKay rejoins the greeting card company he earlier worked at for 40 years, hired by recent late-in-life divorcee owner Sylvia Schmidt (Betty White) to be its new President. Bob is supported by his loving, dry-humored wife Kaye, insecure daughter Trisha and an office staff of eccentrics.

Bob waits for the arrival of old friend Buzz, and a lunch date at the Mongolian Barbecue Pit. The choice of restaurant isn’t exactly Bob’s idea... I lost a bet. I thought The Three Stooges had made one serious movie. But, I guess I dreamt it.


The sixth episode of the series’ 2nd season (1993). It was canceled by CBS after five episodes aired; 8 were filmed. “Michiana Moon” and another two episodes never aired, until they were featured in a 1997 TVLand special.
