A sentimental favorite

Blanche focused episodes are usually my favorite ones in any given year. This is one I think is quite charming despite Big Daddy not being old enough to be Blanche's father. In a lot of ways this show about second life once you reach the golden years and there is just something very touching of an old guy chasing rainbows with such earnestness. And the thick Gone with the Wind atmosphere adds up to a lot of laughs.
