[edit] Cut 1
Cut from the article:
- [One reader wonders if the names Larry, Darryl, and Darryl were inspired by the character Larry Darrell, protagonist of W. Somerset Maugham's novel "The Razor's Edge." That Larry was, of course, not very conversant, and was rather cryptic when he did divulge anything about himself. Any known facts about this would be appreciated.]

[edit] Cut 2
Also cut from the article:
- In 1991, the characters from "The Bob Newhart Show" reunited in a prime-time special, analyzing Bob's dream. During the exchange, the Hartleys' neighbor Howard Borden (Bill Daily) recalls "I had a dream like that once. I dreamed I was an astronaut in Florida for five years" as scenes from "I Dream of Jeannie" featuring Daily were interjected. The "five years" referenced "Jeannie's" 1966-71 run on NBC.
I couldn't find a good place for it in the two minutes I had to think about it. Hope someone finds it a new home (that is NOT mixed in randomly with "The Last Newhart" section).

[edit] Larry, Darryl and Darryl's first appearance
These three characters were in the premiere episode of Newhart. They did not wait until Season 2 to show up. I'll admit that they may not have been prominent characters until Season 2, but they were in the show for its entire run. See imdb for verification of this. Pacific1982 13:34, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
OK, I stand partially corrected. L, D & D made their first appearance in the second episode of Newhart. But of course that still puts them in Season 1. Pacific1982 13:39, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Current TV Info needed
Newhart is still on television in reruns in Canada and Australia. Can someone post the channel info and times? Also does anyone have information regarding the lack of this show in the US? It is never on US television and not available on DVD. Is it under contractual dispute? Rugz 07:43, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
