* UnplannedStaycation: In one episode, a harsh snowstorm knocks out heat to almost every apartment and ruins Mary and Lester's vacation plans to Hawaii. As their apartment is the only one with working heat, the residents of the titular apartment building work together to give them an indoor vacation, complete with games, dancing and food, after having butted heads all throughout the storm.

One episode saw Mary Jenkins get after her teen-aged daughter, Brenda, after she refers to a neighbor -- building floozy Sandra Clark (Jackee Harry) -- by her first name. Even though "Mrs. Clark" freely allowed her teen-aged neighbors to call her by her first name ("Call me Sandra!"), Mary's rules were otherwise.
