	"Newhart" (1982) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		A bit of trivia: Larry and the 2 Darryls were originally planned by the writers to appear in about 2-4 episodes and were to be written off shortly thereafter.
		Since "Newhart" was taped in front of a studio audience, the audience would cheer, applaud and holler when the trio walked in the door, then the introduction would follow: "Hi, I'm Larry, this is my brother Darryl and this is my other brother Darryl".
		It was said, that the studio audience kept the trio from being written off the show.

	Newhart - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Newhart is a television situation comedy that aired on the CBS network from 1982 to 1990.
		The bedroom is from the set of The Bob Newhart Show, and – in a parody of a 1980s television vogue – the entire Newhart program is revealed to have been a dream in the mind of Newhart's 1970s character.
		Bob Hartley tells Emily that in the dream he lived in a weird Vermont town with weird people: a snobbish maid and her alliterative husband, a dense handyman, and three eccentric woodsmen, two of whom were mute.

	The Bob Newhart Show/ Newhart
		The Bob Newhart Show and Newhart are both prime examples of the ensemble comedy that came into vogue in U.S. television during the 1970s and enjoyed continued popularity in the 1980s and 1990s.
		The two shows had much else in common (in addition to their star, Bob Newhart); both had sharp writing, well-drawn characters, and a distinctive style of humor that was intelligent and sophisticated, yet just a bit off the wall.
		When Newhart retired the show--by choice--he expressed misgivings about the direction of situation comedy as the 1970s gave way to the 1980s; broad physical comedy and obvious jokes seemed to be pushing out wit and sophistication.

	Newhart, Bob
		Newhart was one of several cerebral comedians who found favor in the early 1960s, but he always seemed more accessible than the others, like the kind of guy people would invite into their living rooms.
		Each cast member had opportunity to shine, but Newhart was the calm center of it all, reacting dryly to strange characters and events, and patiently trying to explain various situations to people who weren't interested in his explanations.
		Despite this failure, Newhart's place in television history is assured by his two successful sitcoms, which in reruns continue to demonstrate that his style of humor has not gone out of date.

		Newhart, 73, has occupied this palace for more than 10 years, but he still looks like he fears it's merely a set for a sitcom that will one day be canceled.

		Sorkin was so intrigued he invited Newhart onto his show, where the budding comedian regularly improvised routines claiming to be the expert on whatever big issue was in the news.

		Newhart actually got better as time went on, by getting rid of that self-centered S.O.B. Kirk Devane (although his Grandma, played by Ruth Gordon, was hilarious), and adding the doofus townspeople and the most obnoxiously shallow couple on Earth (Michael and Stephanie).
		Newhart was horrible at first, and then it managed to undo it by the third or fourth season.
		Newhart proved that it is still possible to be funny without being dirty or mean; Seinfeld may have been as funny, but Newhart was easily the better show.

		The 1982 series Newhart kept Bob Newhart's familiar character intact and transplanted it to a new setting in which he was surrounded by a cast of characters that grew increasingly eccentric during the span of the series.
		The tale, bizarre even by Newhart standards, opens on a town meeting at the Stratford Inn at which (among other such important business as a vote to declare the flounder the Official Town Fish) the townspeople have assembled to celebrate the Inn's 216th anniversary.
		Instead of leaving the ending of Newhart as a gag meant to be enjoyed as a simple wink to the audience, this show belabors the notion that all of Newhart was merely a figment of Hartley's imagination.
