Yes, that show was amazing!
It was obviously not done for ratings but the sheer joy of doing something
innovative.
I'm grateful I still have it somewhere on VHS!
Moonlighting seemed to set the standard for co-star tension.
Castle, Mentalist, are interesting comparisons...

I liked the Carol Burnett version where in addition to the pea the
mattresses were stuffed with scrap car parts.

Boy I'd love to see a remake of that. Where you could find young
comedic genius to play the princess I don't know -- it seems that you
could hold a candle to the ear of most young starlets today, and blow it
out through the other.

For that matter, I'd love to see a reissue of either of the made-for-TV
versions.

I think the funniest thing I've ever seen on TV was a one-hour
Moolighters episode by Bruce Willis and Cybil Shepard, "Taming of the
Shrew".
