Watching this on Flix now...just so absolutely abysmal on so many levels: Bruce Jenner, Steve Guttenberg, roller-disco etc. etc.
Truly one of, if not the worst Hollywood studio films of the last 30 years.
Just jaw-droppingly awful on so many levels...fantastic!!!!
I saw it on Flix again for the first time in years. I first saw it on ABC in 1984, and actually liked it (I was a kid so cut me some slack). Now I think it is embarrasingly bad. Bad acting (it probably has some of the worst lines ever), bad music (I like the Village People, but some of the songs that are in the film are Eurovision Song Contest bad lol), and bad writing. But somehow I am uncontrollably drawn to its badness. I think even Nancy Walker knew she was making a dud.

typical bad 70's movie. these people are my generation. we knew it was terrible then and now it looks even worse. but it is a great history of that time. so kids this is what your parents did in the 70's.

My sentiments exactly...
Some of the best movies of all time were made in the 1970s. This is not representative of the whole decade of film.
shareYeah, it was on SHOWTIME this past Sunday morning and it has not improved with age...it hasn't even gained any kitsch or cheese appeal...it's just a ridiculously terrible movie on all levels. What was Nancy Walker thinking?
