The Sit-Com Strip: Wings


Wings
Boy Just Wanna Have Fun
Original Airdate: May, 1995

Brian throws Joe a bachelor party before his wedding to Helen. Helen thinks it's stupid but let's them do it. But Brian does a bad job at planning it that they end up in a rundown hotel room and the stripper he got is not attractive. While Casey throws Helen a celebration of her own with a male stripper.


I actually watched a bit of Wings over the holidays.  A local retro channel did a marathon of the series in December.  I caught about a half-a-dozen episodes, and the show was much funnier and well written than I remember.   Wings never got much acclaim when it aired, but in addition to being really hot, stars Tim Daley and Steven Webber are both really good actors and played well of each other.


In this episode, we actually get a quick 'nude' scene from Weber who is caught naked changing in his office.  There is a hint of butt crack and side nudity, more than you usually see on a network comedy.  The stripper, Sergeant Steve, is played by actor Blaine Gray, who looks good, in and out, of his uniform.
