Here's a complete broadcast of a first-run episode of The Bob Newhart Show, "You're Having My Hartley," as aired (with 5k telco audio, as was typical of the time) over the CBS network via WBBM Channel 2. (this aired immediately following the final episode of The Mary Tyler Moore Show, posted separately here: • CBS Network - The Mary... )
In this episode, Bob dreams that both Carol and Emily are pregnant.
(Note: This episode's script was originally written as the series finale. However, the episode was rewritten into a dream sequence once Bob Newhart decided to return for one more season and didn't want to play a father. Thus, it became only the Season 5 finale)
(Additional info: The rewriting of the plot point of this episode as a dream sequence, in the wake of Mr. Newhart's committing to a sixth season, proved to be a harbinger of the ultimate series finale of Bob's subsequent 1982-1990 show Newhart, where it is revealed that the entire Newhart series (where he played Vermont innkeeper Dick Loudon; also co-starring Mary Frann as his wife Joanna, Julia Duffy as Stephanie the maid, Tom Poston as handyman George Utley, and quirky characters like Larry, Darryl and Darryl) was a dream; after Dick is bonked in the head by an errant golf ball around the grounds of the Stratford Inn, he awakens as Dr. Robert Hartley back in Chicago, in bed with Suzanne Pleshette reprising her Bob Newhart Show role as his wife Emily.
However, Marcia Wallace's character, Carol, did turn out to be pregnant in this episode; alas, it would never be spoken of again.)
Guest stars were Tom Poston (who later joined Bob again on his 1980s "Newhart" show), Bobby Ramsen and Jean Palmerton.
