Very funny homage to the original 1979 movie The In-Laws (Peter Falk and Alan Arkin). If you haven't seen the original movie, take the time to view. Both Peter Falk and Alan Arkin are brilliant in it.
Once you know how this episode's plot came to be, it is much more enjoyable to watch.
The 2003 remake of The In-Laws with Michael Douglas and Albert Brooks isn't nearly as good as the original.
The rest of this 'review' is just filler in order to meet the minimum character requirements. The rest of this 'review' is just filler in order to meet the minimum character requirements. Hope that's not too annoying.

If you're going to move a big Broadway musical to the silver screen this is how to do it. The music is performed perfectly. All of the key roles are done so well that they set the standard for theater revivals everywhere. The camera provides the intimacy of a front row seat without sacrificing the impact of the big dance numbers. This is a movie that can hook you on musicals and barbershop quartets for the rest of your life. Corny as all get out - still, perfectly true to the intention of the book and the play. The movie is far more true to the theater performance than Bye Bye Birdie and a better example of the genre.
