Is anyone else distributed by the fact Shelly is only 18? I feel like she should have been at least 25. 25 is an adult. 18 is just a kid, legal or not! I like Holling and Shelly, but it always pulls me out of the moment when they mention her age.
I have no hate for May/December relationships in general.

It was creepy back in 1990. What makes it even creepier is she comes across as mentally challenged.
The episode where Holling finds out she's married is a particularly bad one for the age discrepancy, she acts like a 13 year old having tantrums and he's like a sickly grandfather with his neck in a brace and slow shuffle. Then he starts talking about how her nipples are hard as diamonds and you feel like vomiting.
