"All About Eavesdropping" has an exceptionally high score of 8.7 on IMDB...meaning folks love this particular episode. Also, there are currently four reviews...three gave it a 10 and one a 9. So, I am really am the odd man out, because I didn't like it at all. I thought it showed Rob and Laura in a very ugly light.
Rob and Laura are preparing to go over to Millie and Jerry's for the evening. It promises to be a nice evening...that is, until Rob discovers Freddy and Ritchie had set up some sort of communication system between the two houses. Rob can hear Millie and Jerry talking...and instead of turning off the device, he keeps listening, as does Laura. The Helpers make a few not especially mean remarks about the Petries...and Rob and Laura REALLY overreact and are considering not going to the dinner party. But they go since Buddy and Sally will be there. However, once there they are OBVIOUSLY angry and over the course of the evening, it becomes increasingly obvious they are mad at the Helpers. But they never say why and they ruin the evening for everyone. What's next?
I just thought this particular show made the Petries look like angry jerks...and nosey angry jerks to boot. I didn't enjoy watching it and it made Rob and Laura look simply awful...something that didn't impress me at all. Watchable but not a particularly nice episode that for me, went too far.
