Lusty Sue Ann
by Rrrobert2019-11-24
7/10

"Funny episode focused on Sue Ann. To evade the lusty Sue Ann, Lou sends Mary to a conference in Chicago in his place. Mary is horrified to discover she and Sue Ann have adjoining rooms there. Sue Ann insists on partying with whichever men she can round up and that Mary come along, however the only men Sue Ann can find are only interested in Mary. This one effectively exploits Sue Ann's habit of switching from sweet to earthy in a second, and her vanity, pride, and lust characteristics...."

💡 Did You Know?

Right after Sue Ann chews Mary out for 'depriving' Lou of the trip to Chicago, the establishing shot of Chicago includes, (on the extreme right) where Dr. Bob Hartley's office of The Bob Newhart Show (1972) is. That series was also an MTM Enterprises Productions show.
