Consider these... Both shows revolve around two couples, all best friends. In both shows, the husbands belong to a fraternal lodge. The lead character of both shows is a fat, loud, obnoxious who thinks he runs his house. Both lead wives are the real bosses and are tougher than their spouses. There're probably more, but this is a good start. Has anyone else noticed these similarities?? -- edward {ucbvax,unmvax,boulder,research}!anlams! -| {mcvax!qtlon,vax135,mddc}!qusavx! -|--> ukma!edward | {decvax,ihnp4,mhuxt,seismo}! -+-> cbosgd! -| {clyde,osu-eddie,ulysses}! ---| "Well, what's on the television then?"
