Does anyone else remember this episode of Laverne & Shirley? It was possibly the GREATEST moment of comedic television. (The low being a tie between the sitcom episodes where Benson's mother dies and where Edith Bunker dies. Come on people, what was with the death themes in sitcoms? Anyway...)
The premise: Squiggy's Uncle Lazlo dies, leaving him a restaurant, which Lenny and Squiggy rename "Dead Lazlo's Place" -- most famously serving the "Dead Lazlo Burger."
Laverne and Shirley try to run the restaurant, with predictably disastrous results. Laverne cooks and Shirley serves, and the patrons of Dead Lazlo's Place make it difficult for both of them.
And MY WHOLE POINT IS... lately I have been feeling exactly like Laverne in this episode. I'm standing in the kitchen, whipping up something for people to eat for breakfast, when I notice that Gigi is, once again, trying to shove a pacifer into Baby C's eye socket while Chebbles jiggles her infant sister's feet.
And I put on my best, deepest "Laverne" voice and holler, "PLEASE don't harrass BETTY, please."

Thanks Chef Alekka!! Pick up your hash blacks!
I loved that episode. I was begining to think I was the only one who ever saw it. I've been a waitress for 30 years, and it always make me giggle whenever I hear "BETTY, PICK UP!"
