Tired of being cooped up in her lavish but confining Chicago apartment, Emily begins to consider buying a house. At first, Bob is resistant to the notion of moving, but he is reluctantly won over by Emily's high-octane enthusiasm. Sure enough, the Hartleys discover that being suburban homeowners is not all it is cracked up to be. Frequent Bob Newhart Show scripters Dick Clair and Jenna McMahon make guest appearances as Roy West and Shirley Wolfson, respectively. Written by David Davis and Lorenzo Music, "A Home Is Not Necessarily a House" first aired on February 10, 1973. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
