Reading this list, it's apparent Baldwin -- aside from also directing many classic TV sitcoms in his day, including fave episodes of everything from The Partridge Family to Andy Griffith to Bob Newhart to The Brady Bunch, and on and on, he directed (I know this is so subjective!) most of the "best" eps of LWL ("Wires Crossed", "John Ritter", etc.) and arguably, the absolute worst ("Goose"). What an achievement! ;):D
