Trying to catch two escaped cons who stole a $3 million Babe Ruth-autographed baseball from a mob boss (Danny DeVito), Karen enlists help from their mother (Rhea Perlman). TitanTV
Two brothers break out of jail in order to steal a baseball autographed by Babe Ruth from a reputed mob boss (played by Danny DeVito). The mob boss is currently under surveillance by the FBI, and the FBI agents spot the whole baseball robbery, but they don't do anything about it. It seems that the FBI bureau chief wants Danny DeVito to get really pissed off and kill the thieving brothers so that the chief can finally send Danny DeVito to jail. But Karen has a soft spot for the thieving brothers, since she put them in jail years ago, and one of them still sends her a birthday card every year. Plus, she's pissed that the FBI guy is using the brothers as bait to nail Danny DeVito. After numerous escapades, two dead hitmen from Detroit, and an appearance by Rhea Perlman as the thieving brothers' mother, Karen manages to find the brothers and get them to return the stolen baseball, thus thwarting the stupid FBI guy, and everyone goes home happy. Except for the brothers, who go back to prison, but they were so dumb that they would have ended up back there anyway in due. Television without Pity
Merle and Bob Solchak break out of prison and steal a valuable baseball from a mobster. So now, Karen is trying to get to them before the mobster's "friend from Detroit" can kill them. And Marshall just wants to take Karen out on his new boat. TV Without Pity
When Florida's two stupidest cons, the Salchek brothers, escape from prison and steal a baseball worth millions from infamous mob boss Charlie Lucre (guest star, series executive producer Danny DeVito), Karen turns to their mother, a hapless waitress living in a trailer park (guest star Rhea Perlman), for clues on how to find them before Lucre's hitmen do.
COMMENTARY 1
This is by far the most hilarious TV show I have seen on TV in a long time.
