Steinberg and Gaby's Monster Movies of the week:
"Godzilla Comes Over for Passover"
"Gork Gets Bar Mitzvah'd" (edit) Robert Guillaume is better known for his role on Benson. (edit) John Larroquette is better known for his role on Night Court. (edit) In this rare opportunity, we get to see the whole Sanford and Son set complete with cameras, microphones, the studio audience, and the studio creating the illusion that Fred and Lamont are going to a taping of Steinberg and Son.
Additionally, the first few bars of the Sanford and Son main title theme is also heard during the on-the-set scenes of the taping of Steinberg and Son. Grady also hums the NBC signature three-note 'chimes' theme. (edit)

Saul: Mr. Sanford, to begin with, there seems to be a question as to whether you're entitled to the million dollars.
Fred: To begin with, there's a question as to whether you're entitled to your teeth! (edit) Studio Announcer: Do we have any last minute questions before the show starts?
Fred: Where's my million dollars? (edit) Steinberg (clutching onto chest): You hear that Naomi? I should have had a heart attack after Murray graduated High School. (edit) Studio Announcer: Can you please sit down...
Esther: Don't worry 'bout sittin down; I'll sit down when I get to my seat!! (edit) Bubba: The characters on that show are a lot like you. There's the grouchy father, the dumb son, the ugly sister-in-law and the stupid bungling friend. (looks at Grady)
Grady (Sarcastically): You're too hard on yourself, Bubba. (edit)
