Sorry, I wasn't fast enough ....
I had planned on posting an episode of "Everybody Loves Raymond" featuring our Bob, in his role on the hit comedy series as Raymond's father-in-law, Warren.
NO "in-laws" episodes have been up on YouTube as yet, and I was delighted when I ran across this one! Too bad, though, it was pulled by the YouTube copyright police between the time I found it and the time I had written it up for the FORUM.
I'll keep hunting around, though.
It was an episode from 2004 and I was going to post it along with a "Who's The Boss" episode from 1989 also starring Katherine Helmond, who played Warren's wife, Lois on "Raymond."
So here's just the "Who's the Boss" episode titled Gambling Jag ... I have to admit I never watched this Tony Danza comedy, except for this episode. I much preferred the lovely Ms. Helmond in her role as Debra's Mom on "Raymond." Enjoy!!
More Catching Up - We Watch So You Don't Have To - The Wonderfulness Brothers

Hi everyone,
Still catching up here ....
Another "We Watch So You Don't Have To" entry from eBay.
This adorable Wonderfulness Brothers photo shows up on eBay once in a blue moon or so ....
This is an "after-the-fact" listing. Apparently someone loves our guys $93.75 worth.
"Old Weird Harold," the seller, was originally asking $125.00 for it, with free shipping (quite big hearted, don't you think??) And he apparently sold it ...
The Gambling Jag episode of "Who's The Boss" is also pretty much the only episode of the series I also have seen, aside from maybe one or two other shows. Culp is simply masterful in this show. Of course, right away one sees his height, he's lusciously lean, and his white shock of head of hair clearly shows his handsomeness from all sides. I love his incredibly easy-going nature, and I have an idea that his character knew they were bluffing and gave in just so Danza and crew could win back their stuff. This really was an enjoyable episode and Culp fully brought it to life. As for me, after losing the necklace and car and whether I got it back or not, I DEFINITELY would have done the show, dinner, and breakfast with him!
I too watched snippets of that episode yesterday--I'd seen the whole thing the last time it up was up on YouTube--and then dreamed last night about a silver-haired Culp who wondered where I had been all his life (though it didn't sound like such a cliche when he said it). If I recall correctly, I answered "Waiting for you." Fade to black.
And, Mona, I had exactly the same impression--he wasn't really fooled for a minute by the bluff; he was much too shrewd for that. It was a way of not only returning their property, but letting them imagine they had outsmarted him in the process--a magnanimous gesture all around.
