   You might not have caught it, but approximately 43 minutes into the show
   Cybil Sheppard (I know her show name but can't spell it) asked, "Do you know
   what we have to do now?" to which Dave replies, "Wrap this up in about 12
   minutes.  Another show comes on the air".  Actually the entire show was
   filled with Meta humor.  Just look at the character names: Mary, Joseph,
   the 3 Kings.  Another remark made by Dave which was rather humorous was
   when Mary revealed that the baby was named Andrew.  Dave looks puzzled and
   when he and Cybil get outside the door says something to the effect,
   "Andrew?  It just doesn't work..."  (Wording may differ in some states (:-))

   Oh well; that's my contribution to the Moonlighting humor.
