They were the lead stories for sure but - dead relatives. I always turn off the Big Daddy and Dorothy's brother dies episodes. Too sad and doesn't fit in with the show. That comedy /drama was better on All in the Family. This show was basically farce and they didn't belong on this happy show.

R21 that's why I think the last two seasons (especially the last) are so great and in reruns have largely become my favorites. Wasn't a radical shift in tone but it was definitely there (new writers new director etc), and it was more...90s? I hate to say it around these parts but almost more Will & Grace -ish.
Anyway for worst B plot I vote that "too der the magnificent tiger" one where Rose and Blanche are writing children's stories and doing illustrations and then Rose finds out they've all been done before. Although the actual scene where Rose does tell Blanche (im not gonna beat around the bush) is delivered expertly by White, all the arguing beforehand is just contrived and so not funny. And the A plot of that episode is no better (I think season 4 and 5 are generally the weakest - and the latter part of season 3).
Count me as another who never cared for Blanche's balls of sunshine bit. Rue could be very good - great- at comedy, but not that brand of "wacky" sort of comedy. More the kind that just emanated from her character (which she was actually brilliant at).

The ones that were disingenuous to the themes of the show. For instance, the one when they're breeding minks for a furrier. Why these PETA supporting actresses agreed to such an episode is baffling.
The Sophia goes to buy a nectarine b plot sucked too.

Uncle Angelo moves to Miami and has no place to live so Dorothy lets him stay in the apartment building she and Stan just inherited.

Dorothy may have had the most education out of all the girls, so in theory that should make her the smartest, but that doesn't always translate into practical intelligence in practice. She's the most impulsive (smoking, gambling and having casual sex with the voice of Piglet even though they have nothing in common), she blew the chance of a lifetime at her [italic]Jeopardy![/italic] audition, and even Rose turned out to be more professionally successful without the help of a man (from grief counselor to TV producer to hotel owner).

The biggest problem I had with the last episode was the fact that they did little with Rose talking about moving in with her family. She mentions it, then there's a scene with Sophia showing her the basics on how to push everyone's buttons, then she decides against it. It just feels like they didn't have enough time to develop that any further.

I have to say what I feel. Miami has lost all appeal. In my car, I eat my seafood meal. Mi am mi.
Miami, Miami. You've lost style. Grey skies, rain, deserted white sands by the mile.
When you live in this town, each day is a drag. The coldest of winters for this horny fag.
There's ball clubs and night clubs that no one can reach. Dance the samba at home, then get fined on the beach.
Each view is an eyesore, each day a bad time. The worst of the worst. It's the bottom of the line.
Miami, Miami, you've lost style. Grey skies, rain, deserted white sands by the mile.
Miami, you've lost style.

[R114] Exactly. Such a random thing and of course turns out he likes it and becomes a cross dresser. Idiotic.
The one in That's For Me To Know where Dorothy practically abuses Sophia just to get information about Sophia's past. It's none of Dorothy's business who Sophia was married to or dated in the past. Totally hated how she acted as if she really had a right to know about it.

For such a wonderful show, it had a lot of terrible B plots actually. I don't have a favorite episode - it's just certain scenes and delivery of lines that I love... maybe that's why it's so good, it doesn't really have a peak.

Well, at their ages, I wouldn’t expect peaks. Their bras are fighting a losing battle.

Blanche becoming obsessed with that crime case in the newspaper was absolutely the worst. It was like the writers were on season 20 and had milked every idea possible and this was the freshest thing they could come up with. But it was season 1!
The main plot being all about Rose’s spoiled daughter being a greedy bitch makes it one of the worst episodes of the series. It’s right up there with Empty Nests and the one where Polly Holliday pretends to be blind by closing her eyes. Just no laughs at all.

I'm the tiny pink g-string that gets mixed in with Sophia's laundry. I end up being angrily hung on the slut's doorknob to shame her but surprisingly I actually was a gift from the boring Professor to the blonde bobblehead.

I hated the entire episode where Rose was hooked on pain pills, but the B plot was the worst. Sofia and Dorothy filming that stupid pizza commercial. Good lord. I needed to take pain pills just to make it through that one.

There were a lot of painfully bad B plots.... so many and yet the show is still the best fucking thing that's ever been on TV. Bar none.

I loved the one about Dorothy becoming popular at Blanche's favorite bar, but the subplot of Sophia throwing her own wake was dumb. I appreciate that it gave us a chance to hear Jane Dulo tell Sophia off, however.
