This seventh show brings about changes to the series. For the first time there is an actual musical guest, Sergio Mendez and The Brazil 66. As the show opens we now see the live audience which Tim interacts with, walking among them. Hearing the laughter and positive reactions from this audience indicates there is a larger audience than the previous shows. Gone is the satirical introduction of the guest stars sitting bored on a small stage. Now there is a large stage and the Tom Hansen Dancers gleefully introduce Imogene Coca, Dan Blocker and Sergio Mendez. Some of the old skits are still here with improvements, The Flying Zucchinis now consist of the guest stars as the Zucchinis. Tim's little old man is more on the mark and Imogene as his wife reminds one of the old Your Show of Shows. White the satirical format is gone the changes make for a better show. Mclean Stevenson is still there but Sally Struthers has left to start preparing for her memorable role as Gloria on All In The Family.
