Johnny Has Crab Puffs
Johnny's old hippie friend is a monkey in the wrench works. Kerplewie boink. 1972.
Sick duds on all the peeps. Stupendous like flaming cosmic tiger teeth. 18 stars.
Disappointing second season premiere
Great second-season premiere.
Laughs and a good story - can't beat it! Season 2 is off to a grand start. An excellent start to the second season.
Don't bother reading this part. It is only here to fulfill the ridiculous 600 word requirement recently imposed on all reviews. It it silly, wasteful, and beyond any logic or reason. But, since that is what they have imposed, that is what they'll get. If they want a full-scale book for every review, they'll soon regret it. I will continue to post this tripe with every review since imdb makes these ludicrous requirements for their site. A travesty indeed, but they own this sandbox. Own the toys, make the rules. That's how it goes. This paragraph is a shining example of what one will go through to leave a concise, meaningful post. If you have not read this, congratulations; you have shown good sense. If you have read this, you might want to re-evaluate your priorities. Thank you and bye-bye and buy bonds.

- TriviaThe final scene outside the DJ booth was taped without an audience. A canned laugh track fills the sequence where Bailey walks past the poster of a defaced Rod Stewart (presumably by Johnny).
- Quotes
Dr. Johnny Fever: [to Andy] I think I'll just take her over to my place, see...
Herb Tarlek: [butting into Johnny and Andy's conversation] Mistake!
Dr. Johnny Fever: Hi Herb.
Herb Tarlek: You guys talking about a broad, right?
Andy Travis: A broad?
Herb Tarlek: Dawg, chick, skirt, bimbo.
Andy Travis: [pointing at Herb in recognition] Oh!
Herb Tarlek: Yeah, right. Look, John, do not take her to your place.
Dr. Johnny Fever: Why not?
Herb Tarlek: "Why not?" Number one, the joint's a dump! No offense.
Dr. Johnny Fever: Certainly not.
Herb Tarlek: And number two, take it from ol' Herbie, that if there is no show, there is no go. Comprendo?
Andy Travis: [to Johnny] Now Herb here is an expert on women. He's even written some letters to Penthouse.
Herb Tarlek: [shaking off what he believes is the compliment] A couple. A few. I don't think they sounded realistic enough. A bunch of teenage girls on roller skates attacked me one day and had their way with me. Happened!
Andy Travis: Hey now, Herb. Why don't you give us your professional advice on women.
Herb Tarlek: You really wanna know?
Andy Travis: Sure. Why not.
Herb Tarlek: Okay. First, you get yourself a plan. And what's the one thing that all plans just scream out?
Jennifer Marlowe: [entering the room generally going about her own business] Hi guys.
[while Andy and Johnny watch Jennifer, Herb sits silently enraptured by the aura that is Jennifer before she leaves the room]
Herb Tarlek: [continuing without missing a beat] An objective! The one thing that all plans have to have: an objective. And when it comes to dating, we all know what that is.
Dr. Johnny Fever: Friendship?
Andy Travis: A pleasant evening?
Herb Tarlek: [getting up and walking away] If you guys are gonna kid around with me...
Andy Travis: We're sorry. Go ahead.
Herb Tarlek: [turning back to face Andy and Johnny ultimately sitting back down next to Johnny] Okee. You take a woman to a nice place, N-I-C-E, and that says I like you, you're important to me, and by bringing you here you know I like nice things and that I have very high standards, and one of them is you. You joke, you kid around, and you hope that rare connection will happen when both of you instinctively know that the same river that flows past her door flows past yours. It's not... it's not a sexual thing, actually, but it is romantic... with all the excitement and sheer human fun that goes along with it. But the important thing is not just letting a woman know that you want her, but letting her know that she can have you in a very non-threatening, totally natural, loving way.
Andy Travis: [totally enthralled as Herb walks back to his desk] Uh, uh, what else?
Dr. Johnny Fever: Yeah, what then?
Herb Tarlek: Come on now, you guys know.
Dr. Johnny Fever, Andy Travis: No, no, what?
Herb Tarlek: You get her drunk, stupid.
- Alternate versionsThe first rock song in the episode when Bailey walks into the booth is "Bad Case of Loving You" by Robert Palmer. In the 90's redistribution package and DVD, it is replaced by a generic song (something about "I'll bring the blanket and the six pack of love"). Bailey's first line ("Uh, Johnny?") and Johnny's response ("Yes?") are dubbed over by voice impersonators. Also, at the beginning of act 2, during the establishing shot of Jennifer's apartment building, Venus's voice-over has been redubbed and the music replaced.
