Glenn Martin, DDS is a stop-motion animated sitcom that follows the Martins, a family from California. In season 1 episode 2 entitled "Amish Anguish," the Martins take a family road trip to visit Glenn's father in rural Pennsylvania. Along the way, they come across an Amish community and decide to stop and learn more about their way of life.

As the Martins explore the Amish community, they are fascinated by their simple way of life. They learn about the Amish’s rejection of modern technology, which leads to a discussion amongst the family about the overuse of technology in their own lives. Glenn is particularly resistant to the idea, struggling to disconnect from his cell phone and other devices.

Meanwhile, Glenn's daughter Courtney becomes drawn to the Amish lifestyle and begins to question her own materialistic values. She forms a connection with Daniel, an Amish teenager who offers to show her around the community.

As the Martins continue their visit, they encounter a conflict between the Amish and their neighboring town over a proposed highway that would cut through the Amish farmland. Glenn, who is sympathetic to the Amish cause, decides to help them by using his dental skills to organize a charity auction to raise funds for their legal battle.

Ultimately, the auction is a success, and the town decides to reroute the highway away from the Amish land. The Martins leave the community with a newfound appreciation for the Amish way of life and a desire to simplify their own.

"Amish Anguish" is a heartwarming episode that explores themes of modernity versus tradition and the importance of disconnecting from technology. The stop-motion animation adds to the charm of the show, and the humor is light-hearted and family-friendly.
