I was not born in this era, but I came to love classic shows like this and I love Lucy…and my mom and Grandma knew they never had to worry about me being alone and watching tv, as I was likely to have it on the history channel one of the animal shows, a cooking show or tv land with some of my favorite shoes. These were true comedy shows as they never required dirty themes or words to be funny, they could be even funnier by keeping it clean!
You sound like the great Ed Sullivan when you say, " ... my favorite shoes." But it's so nice to know that young folks are enjoying the shows we Baby Boomers were blessed to have seen when we were also "young folks!" ❤❤❤
I especially liked the episodes where Richard Deacon, as Mel Cooley, was given the opportunity to dance. Once or twice with MTM, and a Christmas show or two, and once in a dream sequence where Rob has to decide between seeing Richie in a school play, or flying to Washington as a talent scout for Alan Brady. Mr. Deacon was adorable in all of those episodes.
@philthomas8351... Richard Deacon was great at playing Fred Rutherford on the Leave it to Beaver, Deacon was also a gourmet chef in the 1970s and 1980s, he wrote a series of cookbooks and hosted a Canadian television series on microwave oven cooking. Richard Deacon May 14, 1922 - August 8, 1984
I watch this from beginning to end twice a year. Now I have been falling asleep to this with my phone under my pillow and listening to it. I can picture everything as I hear them. Hope to dream to be in an episode one day lol.
Me too as they are playing on the iPad on the kitchen table. I can control RUclips from my smartwatch laying in bed. When I want to go to go to sleep I just turn it off from my watch. Well that smartwatch. I have three of them.
I was feeling a bit down until this show came up and I watched it. The show lifted my spirits. We need to somehow find this kind of entertainment again for all of our sakes.
One of the best episodes ever. I really enjoyed this one, and loved seeing the softer side of Buddy. Even Buddy had a heart for Mel. This was an episode with a "good example" towards others. 👏👏👏👏👏☆☆☆☆☆

@@marinazagrai1623 Beaver/Father Knows Best and Happy Days has been redone every ten years since the 50s, as has DvD Show. That 70s show is basically Happy Days with two girls and another neighbor couple added. That 90s Show is a rehash with their kids.
@@Neb.333 The same studio did The Untouchables at the same time. They mowed down people with machine guns, shotguns and car bombs.

Carl Reiner wasn’t just a great comedy writer and producer, but a phenomenal actor as well. Did he ever do any dramatic roles? He could’ve excelled at that type of acting as well just like he did at comedic acting.
@@sharksport01 The scenes with Alan were to make him seem like he had a huge ego, which his character did. The scenes were so funny back then, before everybody got offended by everything and everybody. Glad to know you can laugh at real humout
Yeah, that's the genius of this show and of this era of television. There were NO bad actors. Not even mediocre actors. Every single one was so good, they could have carried their own shows.
It's hilarious on multiple levels for MTM to be wide-eyed that "a producer is a pest?" But she was far too adorable to ever make that work in her own production career.

we watched this show growing up in Los Angeles, and at 73 i watch it on youtube from méxico. its a great show, but I wish the writers and Mel would walk out on alan brady, and not return. he didnt deserve them
Did anyone notice that when Rob was gluing the vase he told Laura to put the phone receiver to his left ear, but later in the show he put the phone to his right ear?
Richard Deacon (Mel) was a character actor with many parts to his credit. In the 50s he was in a Disney film that showcased Annette Funicello, he played Mr. Whipple in an episode of the Twilight Zone ("The Brain Center at Whipple's") and he played Fred Rutherford (Lumpy's father) in Leave It To Beaver. Look him up on a search engine and you'll get an idea of how many shows and films he played in both before and after Dick Van Dyke. He was easy to work with and even wrote some of the insults Buddy said to him in the Dick Van Dyke Show.
Alan Brady may be the biggest weasel ever, I've always hated how he treats Mel. With Buddy insulting him it's more fun and games, but to have a boss treating you like that would be torture
@Jeff di Giusto I have a brother who is 71 years old and he still has thick hair, but his son is partly bald on top. My brother's son inherited his hair genes from his maternal grandfather. I like it when a man is bald on top. I think it's very attractive. I used to have a boyfriend who was already bald on top when he was 35 which is when I started dating him. That's another way where I'm different than a lot of women. Oh, well.
@@lynettepalecek3141 lol ... I've never heard of a girl who was attracted to balding men, but to each her own, my lovely friend! 😉 Of course, that means that you would not find me attractive at all! 😲 Oh well, can't win 'em all. ... How have you been; I haven't seen you around the malt shop lately?
