S8 E7 Pilot Season "Chico and the Man"

"Chico, don't get discouraged, the Man he ain't so hard to understand."  Ah...Chico and the Man.  I have to admit, this was a really fun rewatch.  Freddie Prinze was full of charm and optimism and Jack Albertson was...well...Jack Albertson.  This show isn't talked about as much as it should be as it was cut short for obvious reasons.  In a TV Landscape dominated by Norman Lear, this series was "controversy light".  It shined a light on urban blight, blue collar struggles, and racial clashes in a very easy to swallow pill.  So, sit back and enjoy while I give 'ol Chico the credit he deserves.
