Don Rickles second attempt at a comedy series wasn't any more successful than his first. In this CBS sitcom, Rickles played advertising executive Don Robinson, Louise Sorel played his wife Barbara, and Erin Moran as their daughter Janie. Other regulars included Robert Hogan as Rickles friend and co-worker, Joyce Van Patten as his wife, and Barry Gordon, as an aggressive adman.
This episode: "Where There's A Will." Don's brother-in-law urges him to have a will drawn up.
Hosts Erin Moran & John Schneider are joined by Blondie, Chic, Barry Manilow, the Oak Ridge Boys, and the Village People to celebrate rolling out the old year 1979 and rocking in the new year 1980. Dick Clark covers the countdown to midnight in segments that are telecast live from Times Square in New York City.
