#BuffaloBill 17 (1984) - 10/10
Continuation/conclusion of the abortion story, by #JayTarses.

1️⃣ Again, the show feels like a true ensemble here. With #JoannaCassidy and #GeenaDavis carrying most of the weight. Both are excellent. And it’s great to see both of them getting so much material independent of the Bill character.

2️⃣ #DabneyColeman gets one key scene, on his own, acting out an entire baseball game. It has to be seen to believed. His vocal work is astonishing.

#BuffaloBill 16 (1984) - 10/10

1️⃣ Excellent episode by series creator #JayTarses with a very serious storyline about an unwanted pregnancy.

2️⃣ Much of the focus is on the brilliant #JoannaCassidy. And there are some lovely scenes for #MaxWright, also.

3️⃣ With all this genuine, heartfelt drama in play, it falls to #CharlesRobinson as Newdell to bring the laughs.

4️⃣ I love this cast, and this is an episode where several of them are in the spotlight.
