This isn’t from an episode, but I’ve been curious about this for a long time... When was this promo shot taken? It’s one of the promo shots I see the most. Crockett’s hair looks shorter than season 1 or 2, but longer than season 3. Just seems odd. Anybody know what month/year? Could it be summer between season 2 and 3?

Seems like I remember something about this being between seasons 2 and 3 before they decided to go the darker direction.

I found this GIF online and it’s a really funny moment, but what episode is this from? Is it “Whatever Works”? Also, what does that mean when he wiggles his fingers? It’s hilarious but I don’t understand what that means. Maybe if I remember what episode, it tied in with the dialogue somehow? I never picked up on it, just seemed weird but funny.

We always referred to this as giving someone a bouquet...a bouquet of middle fingers. :)

That seems to make sense. Crockett’s hair is a little windswept (a la Bryan Ferry :)) but on closer look it looks pretty close to the season 3 cut.

It’s “Whatever Works” this was Sonny’s reply to Stan when he told him he could borrow the bugvan.  Season 2, episode 2

I was responding to this photo, not the fingers (for the record :);))

It's definitely Tubb's season 1 haircut, maybe Don's hair wasn't styled the usual way?

This picture you posted a while back (season 3 -1986 promo shot) the hair looks similar and could be the same time, after season 2.

@Matt5 was it you who had info on when this promo shot above happened?

The one you are thinking of ref the info I had that was the Aventura mini mall shoot on March 25th, 1985.

This widely used promo shot here Is from mid Season 3.:cheers:

Wow, well I guess Sonny did start to wear more white as Season 3 went on. At the start it was a lot of gray, dark blue and black with some pops of color.

Yes this around the time of mid Season 3 towards the later part of 1986.
