    In many ways, this episode from season 3 is like a followup to Season 2, Episode 5: "The Big Neighbor". In "The Big Neighbor", Joe goes to Bill's house on an off day to watch a football game. And, because of constant interruptions from neighbors, they never really got to see much of the game. In this episode, Joe invites the Gannons to his apartment for a cookout with his girlfriend. But, like this previous episode, again and again things seem to conspire to ruin the evening--things at work, Friday's lady friend coming late and problems with the neighbors. It just goes to show you that a cop's job is never done! It's all very mundane but at least gives you an idea of what life is like if you work for the police department. Not a must-see, but an example of the sorts of unusual episodes that began to appear more and more frequently following the first season.
