The Dick Van Dyke Show's episode Coast to Coast Big Mouth still ranks by many critics as one of the top episodes of all time.

In that episode, Laura (Mary Tyler Moore) reveals on national TV that Alan Brady (Carl Reiner) is bald.
Her husband, Rob (Dick Van Dyke) who is Brady's head writer on his TV show, is afraid of the repercussions.
