In this episode: Alan Alda's actual dad shows up to tell him not to be a dick.
I did not expect the plot of Hell Comes to Frogtown (1988) to involve so much cock and ball torture.
Sometimes this show can get a little bit predictable, but then they give you two back-to-back episodes about the 'zoo' that Radar suddenly has.
