50th Anniversary and Thanks!

[Bobbi]

Todd - Thank you for hosting the forums!

Today, March 5th, is the 50th Anniversary of "Not That Much Different."

There's a lot going on in this episode as we get a slight peek into the counter-culture of the time. It comes down to jealousy and taking out the top dog of the pack.

For a memorable episode, this doesn't necessarily do it for me but that's okay. I know several people who like it and there is a bit I liked - the little red car. As Mr. Mike points out in his review, where/how did West get such an expensive car? It was $6800 new and that's in 1968/1969 dollars. Was he getting money from his parents? Did he have access to a trust no one knew about? Ah, the unanswered questions. I don't have to wonder why I keep coming back or why we're still talking about this show 50 years later.

One of the sports cars, like the red one seen in the show (a 1967 Toyota 2000GT), sold at auction last year for $665,000.
