The Bernie Mac Show Season 2 Episode 9
Don Rickles plays a neighbor who dispenses some unorthodox advice when Bernie is told he has high cholesterol. Though it’s a sore shoulder—and badgering from Wanda—that sends Bernie to the doctor, he comes away sore at the physician for weighing him down with bad news. The problem can be controlled through diet and exercise, but that would mean avoiding the finer things to which big Mac is accustomed…like fries from Royal Burger. But neighborly Dr. Rickles suggests that stress is the real problem, and what causes stress? Why, dieting, of course! And that’s the case Bernie presents to an incredulous Wanda.
