Interesting that Lou Grant would go on to be the most successful spinoff of the Mary Tyler Moore Show. In part because he remained true to character but also grew beyond that. I only bring this up because if there was anyone I thought matched Lou Grant as a romantic partner it was Charlene but only with Sheree North playing her nothing against her replacement. This episode though is an interesting plot for Lou Grant he's slowly moving forward and trying different ways. Penny Marshall is good here before moving on to focus on Laverne and Shirley . I do agree though this show isn't good at keeping up romantic relationships for Mary or Lou .
