This is where Tom Hanks' climb got started.
Two men dress in drag so they can stay at an all women's hotel. Why? Their hotel was demolished, while they were in it.
The drag angle gave this a boatload of sight gags to work with. Like when they were wearing wigs, bras, and shaving cream and singing 'Macho Man.' Hanks and Scolari made a GREAT duo. These two worked off each other perfectly.
The late Wendi Jo Sperber and Thelma Hopkins provided great comedy on their own too. Sperber was better than she ever got credit for.
Holland Taylor made a great foil for the humor. However, you almost wanted to like her.
Donna Dixon was the looks. She was beautiful, and still is. I only wish her acting was better. But then, she still did well.
This is one of those shows you wish lasted longer.
