Tue, Oct 22, 1991 · 23 min

Joey feels like his life is going nowhere. He doesn't want to read a bad review of his last performance, and he doesn't have to, because the newspaper's employees are on strike, then the KFLX radio station calls and asks Jesse a cartoon trivia question that Jesse can't answer, but Joey answers it correctly, winning tickets to the Donny and Marie reunion, then Linda, an attractive technician from Hilltop Cable Company, comes over and puts a booster on the cable out back, then comes inside and works on the TV. Now channels such as the Truck and Tractor Pull network are available. Before leaving, Linda agrees to go to the Donny and Marie reunion with Joey. Jesse and Joey then sit down to watch "Wake Up, San Francisco". The first guest is local children's TV show legend Ranger Roy, who is Joey's childhood idol. Roy announces that after 30 years of hosting his show, he is retiring, but before he does, a new "ranger" will be chosen.
