Murray Sells His Soul
Hitchcoc26 February 2017
Sue Ann has fired another producer and goes to Mary to try to get her to take the job. Even an extra 350 dollars a month won't clinch the deal. When she comes to the studio and announces what she is paying, Murray jumps at the chance. But it turns out that she makes life miserable for him. She has him washing dishes, opening cans, cleaning the oven, and finally the unkindliest cut of all, wearing a wedding dress while she alters it. Of course, Lou, Ted, and Mary come into the studio and see him. Ted has some of the funniest lines he has ever had. Then there's the coup de grace.

Murray's move
Rrrobert2 February 2020
Many sight gags help make this a very funny episode.

Demanding Sue Ann can't keep producers on her show so offers Mary a big salary to take the job. Mary refuses but Murray accepts, as he needs the money. As expected Sue Ann is a nightmare to work for.

Ted's reaction to seeing Murray as Sue Ann's dressmaking dummy is one of the funniest bits ever in the series.
