And you're right, of course, IKnowWhatYou'reThinking. It's just that when I read your post I "heard" Higgins in my head.

Agatha, I'm sure Higgins would've found out the beer was for Magnum and bribed Rick into doing some type of charity work in order to keep his job.

Didn't mean to step on your toes with that one. Blackmail just seems more Higgins' style. :D

I think you're both right and...

In J "Digger" Doyle, Thomas says, "Higgins! What do I have to swap to get in here?"

Reciprocity is alive and well...and living in Hawaii!

PS - Welcome to the boards, Kimbo!!

I happened upon an episode of "Rosanne" while changing channels the other day and noticed they were drinking the 'Beer' brand of beer with the knockoff of the Coors logo like Magnum drank in the later years.

This must have been a common prop.

Just caught a couple episodes of Simon & Simon. In "The Club Murder Vacation", Rick Simon is drinking none other than "Tiller" Beer.
In the episode "The Ten Thousand Dollar Deductable", You guessed it, he's drinking a "Flagler".

I'd have to guess that Coops was better than Tiller or Flaggler. I think it is Flaggler that has the really cheap looking can. I believe Rick made the beer pyramid out of both these brands in Distant Relative.

Although it was never seen on the show, I'm sure they also downed some Lorraine Blonde from time to time. ;)
