Great cast but dated episodic comedy. Still its enjoyable to see so many wonderful performers all gathered together and Dishy's apartment is a snapshot of 70's mod decorating.

Super Reviewer

Hysterically funny film with a once in a lifetime cast. It is filled with vivid and interesting characters, all, absolutely all of the performances are awesome. The writing and direction are superb. Fantastic and highly entertaining.
