Old Telly and Oscar joke reused in Season 34

[Don_Music_2004]

You know in the episode when Oscar wants to move his trashcan to a new place and he does that snake in the can trick with Telly? He used to do that to Telly all the time in the 1980's and I was really happy and surprized when they used this old joke again after all these years.

In episode 54(1969), the episode where Oscar prepares for his friend Herbie's birthday, the same thing happened, only he did it to Susan.

I used to love when he pulled that gag on Telly.

You know, I'd forgotten about that bit for years until it was brought up here. It was a rather amusing bit that I enjoyed watching. Oscar's always at his most amusing when he tries to get the best of Telly.
