This sitcom follows a seemingly mismatched couple—a free-spirited yoga instructor and a strait-laced U.S. Attorney—who get married on their first date. Vassar is regularly brought up as a character point for the wealthy, stuffy mother of Greg; she’s a modern-day Mrs. Howell. What’s especially fun here is that one of the episodes mentions one of Vassar’s oldest traditions.

Thanks to Liz Gates ’97, Prof. Denise Walen, Jim German, and Randy Nathan ’79 for the tip.
