Chester Lane, I agree. I grew up watching “One Day at a Time” I was five when the show debuted, December 16, 1975 [I looked up the date on Internet Movie Database (IMDb).]. I loved the show.
Love the way they talked about the characters' feelings & situations in the first person. For awhile in their lives, they "were" those characters. That's why they were so believable and loved.
I loved Richard Masur on the show. I remember, even as a 10 year old watching this when it first aired in the 70’s, missing the character of David when he left the show. He was so sweet as funny.
Glad too see you guys back together. This show was the best! And the four of you still have that magical ✨️ spirit and presence as you did during the show. Even though I was born in the late 80s. The 70s were so great.
Like every young boy at the time, I was in love with Valerie. The only reason I watched it. I was devastated when she married that rock n roll star. Loved this show
Yes, and her movie (mostly Lifetime movies) that she was in. Sh was on celebrity Rehab, and she made it through, and I could not be prouder for her. We fight the disease and then work on a cure. ❤😊
Mackenzie wasn't the best actress on the show. What made it a great show was the awesome ENSEMBLE cast! All of them together made it funny and serious.
I always liked Mackenzie’s character, Julie. She was a fighter. Barbara the beauty. The show wasn’t the same when Mackenzie got fired. I’m surprised Mackenzie Phillips hasn’t gone on to do more shows or movies. She was also great in Orange is the New Black too.
This was absolutely excellent! TY for sharing it! I went back and watched it again after my mother died. Somehow, it was very relatable because now, at this point, my father was a single parent raising a child. I think that's why this became very special to me. God Bless You, take care & stay safe.
Bonnie Franklin was a first class ham. She deserved an overacting award. The guy who played Schneider pretty much sounded like Bonnie Franklin was a pain in the a$$.
This! Me with my dad! 😂 you tell me to be independent & then you told me not to be independent! 😂 & yes was watching this with my dad his childhood show! How Bonnie Franklin was talking about how this made them become a popular tv show! 😄
Saw an interview with Valerie in the mid-80's on Letterman with EvH. She was, at that time, still trying to be so hip and rock-and-roll. But here (and in other things since) she's just normal Valerie. She looks more comfortable in her skin.
I Lovex this show my Mom was a single parent trying to raise Three kids I no she j didn't have it easy I raised Three kid's and I was Married and it was not easy we took are Mom for granted I loved my mom but I never released how hard she had it I love you Mom may she RIP
To the scriptwriters: Why did you have a non-Italian actress play a woman born a "Romano" who was married to a "Cooper" that played by an obviously Italian looking actor named Campanella? Confusion?
I appreciate the story lines of realistic family shows, not the fake problems the Brady Bunch. Everything is so easy for this blended family. Not so in Ann Romano's family. Or the Bunkers.
I had heard Valerie and Bonnie say they felt Mackenzie ruined the show and they didn't even want to talk to her. I guess they granted her an exception.
The title should be: One-Day-at t-a-Time Reunion, OR "One Day at a Time" Reunion. Otherwise, it looks like what it does: One Day at a Time Reunion. What's a "Time Reunion"?
She had a difficult childhood that probably affected her a lot, her father was famous too (he was in the band Mamas and the papas) and an addict and abused her.
39:24 - they're volatile, they're energized, they're passionate - they should NOT be together, oh, HO, no...ah hell no. Volatile, energized, passionate people should be by THEMSELVES.
I have been trying to find the episode where they were doing a Talent show. and I think Ann and the two girls were dressed like little triplet babies in highchairs and they were singing. "How I wish a Had a gun, A little gun and then I'd shoot the other two, and then there would be one" is that the same ep.where Nanette Fabre played the saw? what was the title of the one I was describing, or the season/ episode # ?
I never liked the Snyder character. Now when I watch I forward through his formulatic two scenes per show. Nothing against Pat Harrington. He played the part very well.
Leftists just revere what they're supposed to, especially in Hollywood. The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled is convincing the world that Khazars are Jews.
It's just shame that we lost both of pat and bonnie too and I miss them very much and they will be remembered by us fans of the show itself
It is I love them both two lovely people they are missed deeply
@@grangrampa832 they both are going to be missed by the fans who grew up with their talents as people

@@ninademci1500 Did you know that Bonnie Franklin didn't have real children in real life and she had step kids with her 2nd husband I think
@@ninademci1500 I was 7 years old when it debuted! 😊❤
I miss my daddy, aunty , grandma and all my family that passed.
My favorite show, so glad they had a reunion before Pat n Bonnie past away, RIP!!!!
I done sat up here and cried my eyes out at this. Rest in Power Pat Harrington, Jr. and Bonnie Franklin.
And Nanette Fabray
No power in a coffin.
Back in The day 😊 when TV was good ☺️ Great show Great cast All of them were
And a new season meant new shows, now more reboots.
You are very right it was very CLEAR BACK THEN!!!!!❤😊
Can’t believe this reunion is 17 years old!
Can't believe I'm 17 years old!! 😱
(Actually I'm 61) 😱😱😱😭
@@ehlerhog Understood. I will be 58 this year. Where did the time GO? I want to go back!!
In 2025 the show will be--are you ready--50.
This was an important show for all of us girls becoming women.
Love the way they talked about the characters' feelings & situations in the first person. For awhile in their lives, they "were" those characters. That's why they were so believable and loved.
Yes a real live Family
Wolfie, you oughta be proud. Your mama was a smoke show, and she still is. 😁🥰
That would be a weird flex for a SON.
Wolfie has a billion other reasons to be proud of his mom - she's amazing on EVERY level.
Loved this show when I was a kid,had a HUGE child crush on Bonnie Franklin,thought she was sooo CUTE !!! LOL.
Yes, Bonnie had natural beauty with a great personality ❤
I don't want to be a good girl..........I want to be like Julie!! Can not put into words how much I love this show!!
This is and was my favorite show ... wish I can find it and watch all of them again .. I missed it ..I am Valerie s age so I grew up watching it..
It's REAL SIMPLE...All you have to do is buy the full box set on DVD and you can watch it anytime you get ready!!... UNCUT, nonetheless!!-
I loved Richard Masur on the show. I remember, even as a 10 year old watching this when it first aired in the 70’s, missing the character of David when he left the show. He was so sweet as funny.
Valerie Bertinelli was my first crush! Loved this show as a kid.
Absolutely love this show!👍
The 70s seem like it was an awesome decade. I was born 6 yes after this show ended
Thanks for including the commercials!!⭐💜⭐💜⭐💜⭐
RIP Bonnie... growing up...loved this show 🥰
What a great series, Rest in peace Ann Romano, ( Bonnie Franklin)
They sure don't make great TV sitcoms like this anymore and that theame song.
One Day at a Time & Alice. Best hour on TV Ever!!!

"that rock n roll star". You're so devastated, you can't even bring yourself to say his name. 😄
@@tomflorio7363 it still hurts.
Poor Mackenzie... she was actually the best actor on the show bar none, but was so troubled it derailed her career. I'm glad she's healthier now.
They worked as a team. That's why the show lasted, even with Mackenzie's two "departures". But yes, MP was a natural.
Yes, and her movie (mostly Lifetime movies) that she was in. Sh was on celebrity Rehab, and she made it through, and I could not be prouder for her. We fight the disease and then work on a cure. ❤😊

She wasn't the best actor... ✋

I'm so glad that I got the whole one day at a time series it's amazing terrific actors and beautiful people
Robby Benson! My 1st tv crush!!
I enjoyed Robby Benson in the movie, Ode to Billy Joe.
I loved the TV show One day at a time! Very good TV show of the 70s and 80s i think? ❤ 😊
Great show and great cast! ♥️🙂
Such a great show....One of my favorites ❤❤
I Have ALWAYS Loved "One Day At A Time"!
I always liked Mackenzie’s character, Julie. She was a fighter. Barbara the beauty. The show wasn’t the same when Mackenzie got fired. I’m surprised Mackenzie Phillips hasn’t gone on to do more shows or movies. She was also great in Orange is the New Black too.
No mention of supporting cast members Ron Rifkin, Mary Louise Wilson, Boyd Gaines, Joseph Campanella, and Howard Hessman.
@@pamelanauss There was a brief clip of Richard Masur discussing his role as David Kane and his time in the series.
They have Ginny mentioned in the musical numbers and show it.
@@thomash.schwed3662 Glen Scarpelli, just simply disappeared. Alex was never mentioned again.
@@KelliVitiGlenn Scarpelli is living in Sedona, Arizona with his second husband, John Ricci, Jr.
It was never the same without both daughters. Like Empty Nest in that way.
LOVE Bonnie Franklin and Pat Harrington. I miss this show so much.
Dla mnie najpiekniejsza kobieta, ktora grala w tym serialu jest Shelley Fabares❤ Absolutnie cudowna i ten zarazliwy usmiech.
I love this show so much..wish a cable channel would start at the first episode and just play them in order again.
Pluto TV has it!
Also Antenna TV.
watching this i relect back to when i was a young boy growing up watching these great shows and now im in my 50s how time gets away on ya
I had a crush on Valley Bertinelli when I was 15 years old now I'm 60 years old is she still looks the same attractive
This was absolutely excellent! TY for sharing it! I went back and watched it again after my mother died. Somehow, it was very relatable because now, at this point, my father was a single parent raising a child. I think that's why this became very special to me. God Bless You, take care & stay safe.
I wish they did a reunion movie. I like to think that Julie came back to Max and her daughter and Mark and Barbara had kids.
i loved this show since grade school.. love them all
I think Bonnie Franklin passed away shortly after having a guest appearance on “Hot in Cleveland”, and I was shocked.
May Pat and Bonnie RIP
Bonnie Franklin was a first class ham. She deserved an overacting award. The guy who played Schneider pretty much sounded like Bonnie Franklin was a pain in the a$$.
RIP!! BONNIE FRANKLIN & PAT HARRINGTON!!
I grew up watching this show. Julie reminds me of myself.
This! Me with my dad! 😂 you tell me to be independent & then you told me not to be independent! 😂 & yes was watching this with my dad his childhood show!
How Bonnie Franklin was talking about how this made them become a popular tv show! 😄

I love this show, miss them all
Like them, I heard the lyrics incorrectly too. I’m so glad I can utilize the closed captioning that was invented for the Deaf.
I love this show
Thanks for posting this 👍🏻
It is sad that neither Ms. Franklin nor Mr. Harrington are alive, one year short of this program's 50th anniversary.
They all didn't look much older here
Sweet show
Onedaytime
I Lovex this show my Mom was a single parent trying to raise Three kids I no she j didn't have it easy I raised Three kid's and I was Married and it was not easy we took are Mom for granted I loved my mom but I never released how hard she had it I love you Mom may she RIP
Very convenient that they have the book right there with the words to the theme song.
The reunited cast members segments were likely taped at Sony Pictures Studios.
Pat passed and Bonnie? Never relised show was so brilliant. Loved watching them.
Dam this was almost 20 years ago.
Hard to believe that I am same age as Valerie and Mack actually I am a year older
Valerie is always putting herself down. Her voice was not bad.
Pat was the funniest guy I never new his character was so brainless and funny 😂
Sweet heart show ontv at the time

Who else thought Valerie Bertinelli's name was Valerie Bert and Ernie?😂
You're so 🤣🤣
You must watch family guy
No
Yes this show was awesome
I had heard Valerie and Bonnie say they felt Mackenzie ruined the show and they didn't even want to talk to her. I guess they granted her an exception.
Norman Lear Effect is the production team for One Day at a Time. Do you have permission. Think.
❤☕️❣️😍😃
54:12-54:20 That's some rare behind-the-scenes footage there.
*9 YEARS?!?!* 😱 And the remake only had 4 seasons,1 of which hasn't even been dubbed in Italian????😫😭
This made 209 episodes. The remake only made about 46.
@@Asukenick 💔
Is the One Day at a Time set the same one they used for Good Times?
no
Wasn't always sold on Bonnie Franklin's acting
agreed. suspect she was a better stage actress.
Schenider and Alex what a team
It wasn't the same when Alex left.
Some of those outfits were cheesy, but most of them were GREAT!
MP = great actress!
Really like this show had a crush on Bonnie I thought she was so cute
The title should be: One-Day-at t-a-Time Reunion, OR "One Day at a Time" Reunion.
Otherwise, it looks like what it does:
One Day at a Time Reunion.
What's a "Time Reunion"?
Mackenzie looks super thin.!
She was a drug addict for years throughout the series.
She had a difficult childhood that probably affected her a lot, her father was famous too (he was in the band Mamas and the papas) and an addict and abused her.
I always hadda crush on David!! 😍
It would be nice to make some reunion based One Day at a time movies at least 23 of them or at least er 8 of them period Amen
What?
@@marcofalzone6469 Oddly specific, ain't he?
People say BF was difficult, BUT I think she isn’t was adamant that the show didn’t turn into a cliched “sitcom”.
Wow
He is their version of krammer
13:58 My favorite clip of the whole special. 😅😅😅😅 Julie is SO busted with Foot-in-Mouth disease.

is that the same ep.where Nanette Fabre played the saw?
what was the title of the one I was describing, or the season/ episode # ?
Season 2 Episode 12 - titled "Happy New Year"

@@LittleBlueOwl318No that was the one in season 5.
@@AsukenickI'm not wrong. Look it up. Do some research and get back to me. 🤷♀
@@LittleBlueOwl318 No it was definitely in 5.
Why doesn't she know the theme song?
Schneider the dirty ol man in the apartment building.
Mackenzie doesn't look well.
When did she ever look well?
@@GeminiladyJackson-xq6hc Before cocaine and other hard drugs screwed her up and Norman Lear had to let her go because of it.
I never liked the Snyder character. Now when I watch I forward through his formulatic two scenes per show. Nothing against Pat Harrington. He played the part very well.
Where’s Max?
Pat had a long career going back to the early days of Television.
As for Valerie…being a pubescent boy in the 70’s I had a big crush!😘
Pat was in "Easy Come,Easy Go" with Elvis
And then to find out that Franklin idolized Margaret Sanger. Just evil.
Leftists just revere what they're supposed to, especially in Hollywood. The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled is convincing the world that Khazars are Jews.
Wow! I hadn't heard that.
A lot of overacting in this sitcom..
That was the sitcom style in the 1970's.
