Very funny and smartly written in terms of comedy! And all the men are hot too so it’s basically afrovampire catnip!

I wonder how this was perceived back in 1976 with homosexuality not well received in the edge of AIDS epidemic. It was cute and over the top. Oh can we never hear anyone do Treat Williams’ voice ever again.
