Holy Mac 17/18, missed Floyd! That picture from Mchale's Navy was from one of the later seasons because Gavin Macleod is not in it. Never heard of 'Shirley's World'. Does anybody remember the SNL skit from the early 80's when Susan St. James hosted ( she ended up marrying Exec. Producer Dick Ebersol) and they did a skit called McDonald and Wife with the legendary Joe Piscopo as Ronald McDonald.
