Bombarded with inflation, Watergate, OPEC, and the entire precarious Nixon administration, the American people were not ready for a sophisticated comedy which was flippant about one night stands!!!.. Though the seventies were paving the way for Pandora's box to be opened wide... The television audience was just getting accustomed to the anything but perfect American family, not for the seedier side of life....Way ahead of their time....Too bad it was canceled right away!!...The pejorative side of human nature presented itself as having such a terribly ubiquitous reputation in this comedy series!!! "Hot L Baltimore" could be intrepidly candid about their comical ramifications!! All in all, the world of sub-poverty, blatant sexual indiscretions, and educated derelicts, evoked a compendium of comedy by circumstances... Incredibly dire circumstances that is!! "Hot L Baltimore" was a very well developed sitcom! It was one of the better ones actually!! When reality gets offensive, the television audience rejects it!! This does not mean that "Hot L Baltimore" was not funny!! The end result of abysmal failure is caused by human error, therefore, there is really nothing else to do but laugh!! This was the summon substance of the television show "Hot L Baltimore". Suffice to say, it was very funny, as well as very entertaining!!!
