"Who's Shy?" is the Christmas-themed episode of the CBS sitcom Rhoda, spun-off from The Mary Taylor Moore Show, produced and aired as the tenth episode of its fourth season.
Synopsis[]
It's the holiday season and Brenda has come down with the exact same illness she had this time last year: party-itis. Being a shy person, she will do anything to get out of attending her office's Christmas party. She didn't even have the nerve to return a broken dress she purchased fearing the salespeople. Even with Rhoda's advice, Brenda and Benny have a miserable time at the party. Gary and Rhoda believe that Brenda may need professional help to overcome this shyness. So Brenda joins a support group for shy people led by a Dr. Sanders. Meanwhile, Rhoda, who feels she doesn't really know Jack, invites him over for dinner, he who sees the invitation solely as meal rather than a social occasion. An action by Jack may provide Brenda with the tools she really needs to overcome her problem, while providing Rhoda what she wanted by inviting Jack over for dinner.
