* CousinOliver: Making Nora pregnant at the end of ''After the Thin Man'' was a good gag but backfired to some extent in later installments, forcing Nick and Nora into a domesticity that didn't fit well with their urbane, martini-swilling style. In ''The Thin Man Goes Home'' Nick Jr. isn't included on a visit to his grandparents (supposedly he's at school).
