Small matter, but I’m a bit annoyed by the reference to the original taking place in the 90s. Roughly 2/3 of the episodes were products of the 80s, so why try to shave some years off?

My guess is part of the house is set aside as their own living quarters, including rooms for the ghosts to live in and watch TV and the like. If I remember correctly, Bob Newhart and his wife lived in a separate part of the inn on Newhart. I imagine they do too.
Ever see the Newhart episode with Jason Alexander? He played a lavish tipper, who tried to upgrade to the Loudon’s bedroom.
But add me to the group who wonders what the fallout will be of all the overbookings. And if they only rent out 4 rooms, why do they need Freddie?- 8

Episodes like this and the 30 Rock reunion make me wonder if the bullied were also bullies to others….

Oh, the line was even better - “What has become of the lexicon?” So dignified, so Isaac. A mini-masterpiece.
I enjoyed his “sauce made from horses?” reaction.

Wonderful episode! Jay is really the unsung hero of the series. He’s the last to know things, but that hasn’t upset his equilibrium. We should all have a Jay-type in our lives.
But Sass and Trevor are so fiendishly clever together, and Flower’s claw marks seemed deeper tonight. Did I hear correctly: did one of the ghosts tell Sam/Thor to weigh Eric down and dump him with Trevor?

I’m pretty sure this story was done by 20/20 in October, but the narrative was totally different. I can’t remember any mention of Angel in that version, although Dateline did not hold back from describing her possible/probable involvement. Normally there never seems to be that much difference in the underlying events, but Dateline had more details that make a sad story even sadder.

If the bootleg whiskey was so valuable, wouldn’t Trevor have known? Then again, maybe he’s still hoping to buy more Enron stock.

Good episode, but Hattie had my favorite line, about Mrs Parker’s goddaughter: “she’s such a bully. I’m afraid of what she’ll be like when she’s an adult.”

I liked the framing of the divorce process by bringing in those other couples. The second couple really got to me - the husband must have been brought up in poverty and was so afraid of not having money that he couldn't imagine cutting back.
That husband could never compete with an idolized father. If the wife’s father really wanted to help, why not send money, or help the husband find a different job? Instead, he’s getting the daughter back and usurp the father in the life of the kids. I really felt for that man.

I hope the undercover officer from Saturday’s show (the one with extended camera time) has moved to another department: even criminals watch true crime TV.
Who would‘ve thought, back in 1987, that little scrapings would catch a killer and exonerate another man? I wonder which of today’s mysteries will be solved with tomorrow’s technologies?

They might not have anything to do with the case. They might have everything to do with it. At this point, we don't know.
There is enough evidence already discovered in all of the cases. My point is that the reliance on rumors for other cases sets a bad precedent. Cell phone positioning is believable; are records kept long enough to weigh in for this case? From all that’s been said about the family, I don’t think anyone would be capable of masking GPS data.

In that case there was a previous conviction and a confession the cops were ignoring. That's not the case here.
There was a confession before Connie Chung’s interview of the philandering politician? Or the multiple magazine covers with the missing woman’s photos?
Rumors do not create evidence, no matter how many there are. I’m old enough to remember the conversations that summer, where people wondered who politician philanderer hired to get rid of her, and how long it would be before a confession came from someone.There are so many bad players in the world; it is possible that even a small town has more than one or two undiscovered villains.

No and that's why there hasn't been an arrest. But I think multiple people hearing the similar rumors does connect the two cases, at least as an investigative avenue.
My counter-argument to this: Chandra Levy.
How much time was wasted trying to build a case against the married boyfriend? In the end, there wasn’t enough evidence against the man convicted in the first trial to survive an appeal.

I’d have been calling the police as soon as he left the driveway too. As you said, he was not ordained, just a church member who led a youth group. I’m not sure I’d have had the courage to actually call him with the police sitting there, but I still think he didn’t break any confidentiality or friendship rules by doing so.
I was floored by the wife who stood by Isaac after he confessed murder and an affair to her. I am fairly confident I’d be calling the police on my own husband if he confessed murdering someone to me. I noticed that her support was withdrawn after he got arrested.And yet how many friends know a friend’s spouse is having an affair but don’t tell them?
The man did the right thing in the end. He had a close relationship with Isaac; the murder was news to him and it threw him. He was in shock. The first thing he did after hearing the story was search the internet to find out more. And then he struggled with what to do with the information. He didn’t want the story to be true and then had to wrap his head around it. Give him a break: would there ever have been an arrest without him?

When I first saw Norm on the couch, I thought it was Todd.
Liked Alberta’s approach to Flower.
Trevor and his delight in Alana’s “comfort” was gross, but amusing.

I came here specifically to find out if I was the only one who thought that. Finding out Alberta was willing to rat on someone when it suited her purposes but looked down on anyone else who did it made me like her less, not more.
Enjoyed the episode, but am now thinking that the “lessons” from both plot lines were self-absorbed and suffered from tunnel vision/ over simplification.

I liked last week’s episode, but this was much funnier!
Not a note was off-key, except for Thor’s singing (and that was an unintentional pun; it’s been a long day).
Now I want to listen to the podcast…..

Figured Kreese was up to something - no way they'd kill him off, especially right at the start of the episode. However, he's now a wanted fugitive, so he can't just show up at a karate tournament.
After decades of soap operas/melodramas/bad fiction ingestion, I’ve come to the predict this for season six: Kreese is Johnny’s father. There have been less than subtle hints since season 2. The latest was the flashback to the 1980 Kreese/Silver confab, where Kreese turns down Silver because he has a promising new student who “has the same name!”

I see your point, but to me, that’s just who she’s been…getting fed up with his karate obsession, then reuniting and standing by her man. Very predictable.
But she had the most memorable introduction as the “karate adjacent” one, followed by the awkward curtsy. Moments like this make me think the show belongs with the other comedies….

in Dateline
Regarding the 1/20 Dateline episode, I heard a quote the other day that seems to apply to this case: innocent until proven guilty is often overlooked. Now you have to prove who really did it (paraphrased from my memory). This case embodies that idea. The daughter saw a “bad man” - if that doesn’t create doubt, what would?
