Diff’rent Strokes: Santa’s Helper
(1982)
Season 5 of Diff’rent Strokes had Garret Morris as a Street Corner Santa … Arnold’s dumb ass eventually invites him to the house where he later comes back to break in and steal all of their presents.
One. it was genius how he did it, he put some putty or clay over the door lock when he left so the door wouldn’t lock all the way.
Two The Drummonds lived in the penthouse…. HOW did Morris get back into the building in the first place though? I’m assuming 24 hour concierge.

Cheers: The Spy Who Came in for a Cold One
(1982)
This was an odd one … a guy Eric Finch comes into the bar, says he’s a spy … Diane being snooty can tell he’s not and exposes him, he then says he’s a poet but that turns out to be a lie … so he then offers to buy the bar for 2 million dollars and it turns out he’s actually rich but Diane humiliated him so the joke was on her
… I’m paraphrasing of course

Everyone knows “The Red Dot” now as far as Christmas episodes, this could’ve easily been “The Pick” or “The Race” …. maybe even “The Gum” BUT this one had The cashmere sweater with the dot, Kramer getting drunk off Hennigans Scotch, and George having sex with the cleaning lady … hard to not pick “The Pick” due to “The Nip” but hey, I mentioned it lol
