Opie Taylor: If I play on a piano that's out of tune, my ear might go bad.
Featured review
Best part is Opie's shirt changing.
A very weak episode. Bad acting by the football team,. Attempts at humor flopped. Wouldn't it make sense to try the piano lessons on a trial basis say for a couple of weeks? Opie's whole other activities are supposed to be secondary? Two hours a day for a kid to practice on a piano is reficulous. Bad writing. There had to be a more sensible, funny way to carry out the premise other than this stinker episode. Always a treat to see Maudie Prickett.
