In fact the entire family enjoyed the show. Part of the enjoyment was watching my mom laugh herself to tears. For whatever reason the "Not Craw, you foo, Craw!" unfailingly hit her right in the funny bone. I had the good fortune once of witnessing a very real life "Not Craw, you foo, Craw!" episode when I was one of three people at a table while one, a Chinese woman, tried to explain to the third person at the table (an American) that he needed to go talk to a Mr. "Reeds" whose actual name was "Leeds". No kidding. It was all I could do not to allow it to play out. I knew Mr. Leeds, so I felt compelled to end the episode before it could fully ripen to its comic potential. RIP.
