Wow! I got a giggle that Kate Jackson wore less on a show with Jimmy Stewart than she did on CA. She is so incredibly beautiful:) It's very cool seeing one of her earliest breaks into acting. Thanks for sharing!
My favorite pre-Charlie's Angels role for Kate Jackson was Daphne Harridge on Dark Shadows. As her debut as a tv/movie actress she had a serious character.
I totally remember this show from when I was nine. The one thing from this show that really had an impact on me was that there were two kids on the show, basically the same age, and one kid was the other kid's uncle. That idea completely knocked me out when I was nine. And right here, this clip confirmed my fifty year old memory!
Originally, at :20, there was a sponsor I.D. before the opening scene, like this: "'Fighting cavities is the whole idea behind Crest'. CREST proudly presents...Mr. James Stewart." Procter & Gamble originally sponsored the series when it was on NBC's Sunday night schedule in the 1970-'71 season. This episode originally aired on October 31, 1971.
I could relate to the two little kids on this show. I was seven when this show was on TV and I had a 6 year old nephew. Now I am 47 and my nephew is 46
If you don't mind my asking...what was the situation that resulted in you having a sibling old enough to be the parent of a child at the same time your parents were having you?
This was a great show that was just made ten years too late. By the fall of 1971 networks were looking for more "realistic" shows of the kind Norman Lear would bring us. That all aside this is a great show and I always enjoyed when he'd break the fourth wall. Thankfully it's available on DVD now
Chad Quick. Norman Lear shows were for the poorer working class which is a return to the Honeymooners of the early 50s. Suburban shows of the late 50s thru the 60s had moved into the executive and country club set. I relate to this and Beaver a lot more than the rough rude passions of Lear, copied from BBC trashy-bloke TV. Luckily my daughter looks back at her childhood as the Cleavers and The Bradys, not the Bunkers. "Realism" in fiction doesn't really exist as it is not an absolute for the whole audience.
Chad your reply was on point! Yes this show came too late. I was surprised with the intro of him riding the bike and even the music..was of and for an earlier era. Not to mention...that "surprised that I am being filmed" movement he did...at the beginning.
i was 20 in 71 i don't remember this show, but i didn't watch a lot of TV either back then, 71 i mostly remember Stanford and son and all in the family and watched sports, i didn't know jimmy had a sitcom then
Dude..totally agree with everything u say except the Kate Jackson part. That woman was beautiful!!! Like the face of an angel and fine as hell! You must like blondes because Jaclyn Smith and Kate were waaay hotter to me...Farrah tried too hard at times. Farrah was very pretty but Kate was very underrated with her sexyness. She was plain janed on Charlies Angels...I remember her more for The Rookies
Episode director Christian Nyby was best known for his film work with Howard Hawks in the '40s and '50s. He was credited as director of the sci-fi/horror classic "The Thing from Another World" in 1951.
Young Kate Jackson looks pretty and quite fetching in that mid-riff baring outfit. However, as we know from other appearances, she's wearing a padded bra -- a very padded bra -- under that top. Almost as obvious is Stewart's toupee; yes, his oh-so-obvious toupee. Like Stewart's, Jackson's distinctive voice is all her own; a plus, most definitely. . . . In the main title we see Stewart riding his bicycle through the popular Beverly Hills adjacent Franklin Canyon nature park and its reservoir that's infamous for being the filming site of "The Andy Griffith Show's" iconic main title, with Griffith and Ron Howard 'a-goin' fishin'.' (And 'The Paradise Syndrome' from the 3rd season of "Star Trek" TOS and lots and lots of "Combat!") Then through the middle of a non-descript Los Angeles neighborhood street and nicely blending, via a dissolve edit, into the Burbank backlot of Warner Bros. Studio with its quaint neighborhood house facades adjacent to 'Midwest Street' -- that most of those taking the studio tour have seen while being driven past in the tour carts. "Thank you" to Kate Jackson Ultimate for posting this 'time capsule' experience.
This was probably the only "situation comedy" at that time that didn't have a laugh track (the same as when Hal Kanter created and produced "JULIA" for 20th Century-Fox between 1968 and '71- only they ADDED one when they reissued it in the late '80s).
I have no memory of this show. I was 7 so I pretty much remember the shows that I watched. I guess my family was watching something else. No vcr or dvr back then. Although, we did have more then one tv. It looks like the exterior of the Seaver house from Growing Pains but I could be wrong about that.
I watched this show with my parents when it aired (in 1970-71, I would have been around 7), but don't remember a thing about it, other than that I used to watch it, so it was very cool to get to see this again.
I've been looking high and low for dvds of this show from 1971. If it is even up here on You Tube that would be a thrill. Bill Cosby's 1969-1971 show was on NBC about the same time.
The last show to be sponsored by Procter & Gamble. From now on since 1972, most new shows received fully participating sponsorships. It didn't go well against The FBI on ABC.
"Professor Howard, I'm in terrible trouble!" "Oh, well maybe you better talk to Mrs. Howard." What a racy line for Jimmy Stewart. I laughed out loud because it was unexpected. :-)
freeze at 4:23 -- according to Imdb -- the last writing assignment / credit of prolific writer John Lee Mahin -- who worked at MGM in the 1930s through the 1950s. Good friend of director Victor Fleming. they worked together on 10 films, including uncredited work on The Wizard of Oz.
@paulj0557 This situation w/ the son & grandson led to a cute situation in an early episode, probably the pilot. The grandson finds a beautiful woman sunbathing next door, who is anxious to meet the boy's uncle, whom she assumes will be an eligible young man. Then the uncle turns out to be another kid, not much older than his nephew.
2 July 1997 was like 9/11 to me in significance as for Jimmy Stewart's announced death over the radio, like Adam Petty's death after I'd been with him just before. RIP Guys🙏
Kate Jackson may be sexy in a belly-bared outfit, but I've always had a crush for Julie Adams. I always know it's going to be a good film whenever I see her in it. She's classy.
John Lee Mahin and Cristian Nyby. Everybody wanted to work with him, of course. Hey, is that his cowboy hat "# 1" in the opening credits? Can't tell, which means it undoubtedly isn't but it is similarly shaped. At least we know for sure that the bicycle isn't Pie.
@fromthesidelines P&G sponsored every program on NBC in this time slot (Sunday, 8:30-9:00 PM) going back to Car 54 in 1961. This was the last P&G program in this timeslot before NBC moved Bonanza (Sunday, 9-10 PM) to Tuesday night in 1972.
The only thing I remember about this show was the strange situation of Stewart's 8 year-old son having to call another 8 year-old on the show Uncle because he was the son of Stewart's 29 year-old son. Who writes this stuff?
Yep, 'jeb'- P&G wanted that 8:30pm(et) time period just so they could follow "WALT DISNEY'S WONDERFUL WORLD OF COLOR" on Sundays;only problem was, just about everything they sponsored in that time slot was cancelled after only a season or two. One of the reasons they relinquished it was because NBC (and MCA) wanted to schedule its 90 minute "SUNDAY MYSTERY MOVIE" after "THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF DISNEY". Another: ad time had become too expensive for P&G to sustain a full half-hour in prime-time.
So he's Dad to the blond boy and Grand Dad to the other? Maybe they're doing more than fixing the house's plumbing. Something tells me there is a left out detail about why he's getting her another mid term that will come out in the end. Take away the laugh track and it's suddenly it's a family drama.
So weird to think of arguably America's finest lead actor (next to Cary Grant) doing a sitcom. And billing himself as "Jimmy" for the only time, aside from signing in that way on a game show once. It's like a nightmare except Kate Jackson in that outfit is holding her own. Of course Farrah's nowhere in evidence here to blow her off the screen.
I really, really , really like Jimmy Stewart, but you never really know who these people are. You only know what Hollywood wanted you to believe about them. According to series producer Hal Kanter, Stewart had African American actor Hal Williams dismissed from a guest appearance in one episode (in which Williams' character was to confront Stewart's) on racial grounds. Sad reality isn't a trip to the movies.
Wow, this show looks lame and was on only one season... I don't remember it and was 15-16 then... I heard Jimmy, one of my heroes, had Hal Williams rejected from the show... hmmm
Undoubtedly another bullshit rumor designed to portray fine individuals who were already dead as racists. Mr. Williams appeared in the episode "A Hunch in Time".

Kate Jackson 👍👍👍❤❤❤
I loved Jimmy Stewart..never saw this show though..Kate looked great.too..
God dang, she was tanned like no other!!!
Kate jackson what a knockout
Wow! I got a giggle that Kate Jackson wore less on a show with Jimmy Stewart than she did on CA. She is so incredibly beautiful:) It's very cool seeing one of her earliest breaks into acting. Thanks for sharing!
Like to see the rest of that- especially if Kate continues to wear that outfit.
My favorite pre-Charlie's Angels role for Kate Jackson was Daphne Harridge on Dark Shadows. As her debut as a tv/movie actress she had a serious character.
I wish you would upload the rest of it. How I miss those years when tv was gentle.

Killer abs on Kate Jackson!
Jimmy was amazing in everything he did. He was a wonderful person. I absolutely adore "The Jimmy Stewart Show".

Julie Adams. Beautiful lady.

blonde kid on the RIGHT- Dennis Larson, and he is my father
Cool!
Fetching outfit; something Sabrina Duncan wouldn't even consider wearing on "Charlie's Angels".

stevephil10 Like blond lovers are rare. Plenty of Nazis to love them.
@@AngelCintiaRockgirl correct!
RIP to Julie Adams.
This was a good show.One of the best to only last one year.
Is she from Charlie's angels

No doubt the producers wanted it that way. It was the early 70s remember. Kate looks incredibly sexy here not matter what.

After the first few episodes, Fox dropped the laugh track from ROOM 222...
Yes, that's true.
@@tomservo56954 That was also because it kept sounding like the students were laughing through the entire episode and it just made no sense.
I don't recall this show. But Julie Adams!

As the World Turns and Guiding Light says hello. They were created by Procter and Gamble!

Would liked to have watched it but the sound was terrible.
The wife looked like his daughter….
So he's Dad to the blond boy and Grand Dad to the other? Maybe they're doing more than fixing the house's plumbing.
Something tells me there is a left out detail about why he's getting her another mid term that will come out in the end. Take away the laugh track and it's suddenly it's a family drama.
At $9.00 an hour now that would be a bargain.
that julie adams was banging
ajdc88 yes, she was a knockout and she still looks wonderful as she is nearly 90.
Jimmy Stewart looked a little too old to be the father of those children. Why not air the whole show?
brian sedlock- It gets worse. Only one was his kid. The other was his grandchild, courtesy of his grown son. That professor must have been a PLAYER!
Bill Anthony Yes it was a May September marriage of a widower as I recall. Julie Adams is at least 20 years his junior.
Vacation outfit? Hot! Is her school girl outfit a bra and micro mini?
So weird to think of arguably America's finest lead actor (next to Cary Grant) doing a sitcom. And billing himself as "Jimmy" for the only time, aside from signing in that way on a game show once. It's like a nightmare except Kate Jackson in that outfit is holding her own. Of course Farrah's nowhere in evidence here to blow her off the screen.
Wasn't Kate Jackson on Adam 12?
I don't think so. She was, however, in The Rookies.
No, she wasn't. Do you mean James at 15?
You’re right Claudia. Kate was on “James at 15” and she was terrific!
It's a shame James Stewart had Hal Williams removed from an episode on racial grounds, because he didn't want him lecturing hi.
