The Associates 1x03 "Tucker's Courtroom Coup" shout by RikerDonegal

**Michael McManus.** Most of the focus this time is on Eliot (Joe Regalbuto) and it’s a case-driven story, where the second half takes place in the courtroom. Some good jokes. The ending–where Tucker (Martin Short) steps up to save the day–is very clever as well as funny. _Sept-Oct 1979: ABC aired The Associates in the second hour of Sunday prime after Mork & Mindy and before The ABC Sunday Night Movie. Against it were One Day at a Time on CBS and The Big Event on NBC._ 8/10
