- This never-aired half-hour episode was commissioned by the U.S. Treasury Department in an effort to promote buying savings bonds. It was sent to schools, civic groups and churches for viewing. The message was that by buying savings bonds they would help save the country from communist rule.
“If our kids don’t think enough of our way of life to preserve it I shudder to think of what will happen to America.”
Truer words were never spoken.
Absolutely.
Government will become our God.
Yes
It has already happened!
@@SMAY0001 Exactly!
Every child in America should watch this.
all children. and also reading brave new world.
to show how this "nationalism" is wrong for us!
This is what parents should teach their young so they won't expect everything to be provided to them. A wonderful lesson to learn.
This is what my mom taught me
These days people talk about rights all the time, but nothing about responsibility . Even something as small and easy as wearing a mask is completely politicised and treated as a violation . I don’t understand it- would these save dissenters have avoided the draft and refused to carry/wear gas masks back in the war?
The most ironic comment- the dad on this show worked as an insurance salesman & was home for dinner every night (basically never worked after 6pm). He supported a family of FIVE who lived VERY well on ONE salary😂 They owned a home & didn’t live in a rundown, rented apartment complex. Yet you are saying people today want things handed to them. Looks like it’s actually the opposite
@@k.anderson5039Don’t forget, this was just a show. The father wearing a suit around the house wasn’t the norm. Housewives didn’t wear dresses and pearls doing housework. Middle class didn’t have a fancy home like theirs. My mother worked in 1950s and father only wore a shirt and tie. We used bonds as gifts back when, but now there’s CDs, IRAs, Money Markets, 401Ks etc. for savings, but yes, is hard today for any family to survive or save - thanks to the bad economy and all the other problems with America today. There used to be pensions, but not anymore. One good thing since 1950s was the existence of Medicare, but that could disappear too. Nothing cost that much during 1950s. Technology complicated the way we have to live today as well as helped it, but at a tremendous cost.
This has taught me how we have to be thankful for our freedom.
This is so good and I wish all parents would do this as a lesson to their kids

This is my 2nd time watching this & I want to make it a tradition watching this every so often reminding me about this. I absolutely LOVE this show & everybody should watch this in this day & age. 💝
I'm so glad to have grown up back then. Wouldn't be growing up today for anything. My now adult child was raised on these wonderful shows, and my niece's as well. They always asked "Was it really like that?" And indeed it was. They also said "We wish it was still like that." Today's young are truly missing all the amazing things we were raised with, and it shows.
I just love these old shows. Watched them in the 60s growing up and every other time when they did the reruns.
I agree. I grew up watching old tv shows and still love them. I love Leave it to Beaver, Hazel, Andy Griffith Show, The Jeffersons, I Love Lucy, All in the Family, Alice, What's Happening, Good Times, Three Stooges, just to name a few. Lol! I miss the kids running to the phone to see who would answer it first, playing family board games such as Monopoly, checkers, and Uno, family vacations, blessing our food and eating breakfast and dinner togetherr. Those were the days. Such good memories. 😊
@@tiawannarichmonde250 this shows how we were so UNaware of the racism, sexism, and how the U.S. didn't know about domestic abuse, prejudice again women etc etc.

Better than any of the new stuff
Me too ❤️😊👍
My father loved this program. Now I understand why we all got Savings Bonds as a gift.

Thank you for sharing this lost episode. I've just discovered these. I e watch every episode many times. I never tire of them such good character builders. I also love the episode of thanksgiving. He says a prayer that is just so beautiful. How we should thank the God of love for our freedoms. Freedom in Christ is most important!
I love the Thanks Giving episode too. I’m praying for our country every day. God bless you ❤️
I found this episode and realized it's JUST appropiate for 2020 /2021 ! IT'S REALLY AWESOME ! 👏👏👏 U.S. needs to preserve its *freedom* ❗
Yes, let's send it to AOC.
They need to send it to J. Beezos!
I'd like to see Trump walk-on in a cameo role.
Yes it is appropriate and because RUclips allows it to play, I'm not so certain RUclips is so very much against Conservative values. This opinion based on many other videos viewed on RUclips with similar Conservative points of view. So what's really going on with our overall media in America?
I wish they liked my conservative views. Some of mine, fairly and truthfully written have been deleted. Either as I push send or soon later. Am i shadow banned?
I remember purchasing bonds in elementary school. We took a dime to school each week, the dime was put into a card to earn a bond. I was so proud when I filled my card. I didn't even know savings bonds were around anymore.
if parents today had the attitude of this father our children would understand why the older adults are so verbal about fighting for our freedoms or what is left of them.

Wow...Lord, keep us.

Shows how far Hollywood has degenerated.
You have got to be kidding!!!
we have three generations of entitled youth and adults that don't appreciate this..
Amen!
Yes, it’s a terrible thought, but true. Such a sad lot to carry on with the country! Help us, God, to restore and grow stronger, more thoughtful people, to carry forward “the American Experiment”!
Yep...GenX, Millennials and GenZ. We are effed!
I remember watching reruns of Father Knows Best when I grew up in the 70s and 80s, but never saw this particular episode before today. It was a little hokey, but I ended up weeping a few times, and the message was pretty clear. They don't have a well-advertised savings bond program anymore, but I am going to ask my bank about them soon.

I am surprised that this is not blocked in California.
...and in Washington State where the majority rule is meaningless. Our votes have been meaningless because the governor doesn't let them stand. We've even voted yes on the same issue 3 times in a row but our tyrant ignores it and keeps our taxes as high as possible. It feels useless after decades.
I. Grew. Up. Watching. Father. Knows. Best
So did I and learned valuable lessons on sharing, kindness, friendship, and letting others have the spotlight other than myself. What I learned was a lot and I always give credit where credit is due to this show for making the effort to teach values.
We all did.
That’s the America I remember!! Sure do miss it!
I've seen and I've ever listen to the old radio father knows best radio shows every night till I start to fall asleep, but I've never seen or heard this episode before. Thank you for sharing this with us.

This is ironic.. we’re living in near Tyrantland in present day..
Yes society has done a 180 turn since these times. The show today would be about the litte girl wanting to become a boy
@@drewgrows7765 It would be about being friends with tyrants like Putin.
I learned some valuable lessons as a child from "Father Knows Best" and still remember with fondness how much I wished I was part of this family. Thank you for the upload.
That kind of family looks suffocating.
@@Joshuatree7746 In this particular episode it was stifling how the parents were, but it was a lesson about democracy vs communism/socialism.
I thought our family was like this.
....yes, there was a time when Americans acted like Americans.

I promise to spend my eternity - whether alive or not, to help my fellow beings with smiles, happiness, hope and humanity.

A couple of weeks ago, I saw this episode for the first time. I love this show, but thought this episode was weird. Except in my comments, I used the word que** That was honestly the first word that came to mind. RUclips deleted my while comment. I thought it was funny that this episode was talking about a government that monitored everything its citizens did and in real life, you can't use a word that the government deems as offensive, no matter how it was being used. Scary that parts of this episode are coming true.
Fleur
I agree with what you say, but the reason your comment was deleted was because "queer" is another name for gay. You're not allowed to express yourself as you wish anymore. You'll be ostracized . It's part of the social control of the people that's being used now. They do the same in Cuba and in China. It's known as communism .

Per Wikipedia it never aired on TV- was shown in schools & such as promotion to buy govt bonds
I am thinking about buying my granddaughter a bond. Would I buy it from my bank? It would be a nice present for her 3rd birthday. 😊

There's a lesson to be learned here. Without democracy, life as Americans know it would be dead and succumbed to immense struggle. No freedom, no peace.
The US government actually _commissioned_ this episode to be made. I'm amazed that that was permitted by law!
This show could have been my childhood home. We lived this way for 18 years.
When Jim turned the clock back at the end I thought they were about to go into The Twilight Zone and Jim would never release them from bondage.
I remember seeing this on film day in the 3rd grade,This was only about 10 years old then.. wow ‼️

Great episode. Inspiring.
Believe it or not, I was buying US Stamps and would pay for it with some of my 50 cents per week which were part of my lunch money. It was important not for the right reason but I wanted a better future so by the time I had $11.61 in my stamp book and some schools had this program which all schools had. Unfortunately, they all didn't. I wanted to have $300 by the time I was finished but my parents decided to move so I never got a chance to finish the stamp book.
How sad! No one told you that you could buy the stamps at the post office.🙄
Love these episodes great television wish there was more of them on television now love everything about them 👍🌼

I was telling my younger sister my TV experience is so different than her. I’m a boomer. Dad WW2 n TV was very Patriotic. Then Vietnam came, and older brother went. I loved the commercials..always Patriotic….. not any more.

Those were the best times in America. I sadly doubt things will ever be the same. Now in America the top concern is whether to refer to a person as him, her, they or them

Binge watching these series is nostalgic

15:56. "Darn Jail." A close second to "Tyrant Land," would be "Kraut Land." Only things missing are the bars on the windows and the guards at the doors.

what a wonderful timely message. I dare you all to share it with someone 🎉

Hahaha. I watch this show every morning. Never saw this episode. Not that i remember
That's because it never aired.
This show was all the more poignant because it was on TV, not more than 10 or 11 years after WWII,
when the very real threat of world domination from a tyrannical Fascist was a possible reality, except
for the allied forces of the free world, keeping that from happening.
Facism is the marriage of corporation and state so we're actually fascist now. I at least like having my own stuff, though.
It fits for present day !
@@katherinepolicy2515 We aren't quite fascist (although the pharma companies and government working together on lockdowns was a serious step in that direction), but yes if corporations and the government work hand and hand at every turn that is fascism.
Exactly why Communism and fascism are two heads of the same coin: both are when both industry and the governing body over that industry are controlled by the same people. When any dissent is "shadow banned" "removed for 'hate speech'" deemed "disinformation" or "dangerous speech". So in a way the Democrats and RHINO Republicans are moving us towards fascism I agree.
Thanks for the history :)
I know this is not realistic but it's still a great show that taught valuable lessons.

Not just children should learn this but there is a lot of adult that need to learn this too , it is an honor to wave an American flag and to stand strong

Scary to think that our government here in America cld do this same thing under the administration it has now.
SO true drip by drip.
I kept waiting for robert young to say "You will own nothing and you will be happy".

People today don’t feel like there isn’t much to fight for & rightfully so. Back then ppl lived well & felt they had a country worth fighting for- the dad on this show worked as an insurance salesman & was home for dinner every night (basically never worked after 6pm- probably went in at 9am & had 1hr lunch). He supported a family of FIVE who lived VERY well on ONE salary😂 They owned a nice home & didn’t live in a rundown, rented apartment complex.
Right their!! UNIVERSAL INCOME that most people in America want. This needs to be shown in every school

I wish someone would upload the story about Betty, Bud and Kathy at summer camp. Can't remember the name, but Kathy messed up constantly and Betty was "Simon LeGree" trying to be The Best Counselor..anybody can do that? Thank you!

@@abitibibob Oh thank you so very much! I have been wanting to watch this episode for the longest time and now I could!! :)
Makes me cry. How easily we can lose our freedom!! Like right now!!!!!!! We must not let them separate us, but stand together for freedom. Freedom to speak to worship extra. Fathers have mercy on our country expose all corruption. Help us to see and recognize truth. The people who want to control us who are laying hardships on us. Deliver us from them. Let everyone see what they are doing in secret. Restore our hearts to you once again. Bless and restore America In Jesus name ❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸amen

I like Robert Young in this but he seems so different I didn't recognize him at first. But I rarely watched this show for some reason. I know him more from Shirley Temple movie Stowaway. In Stowaway he looks like the man in the yellow hat in Curious George lol
He was excellent in the movie The Canterville Ghost 1944 with Margaret O'brien ; she was adorable.
Can't forget Charles Laughton.
Stay safe

What's this? I watched Father Knows Best (and Dennis the Menace) both for the first time 3 or 4 months ago. I watched every episode. Why did this one not air? and why the title?
If you read the description you'll read that it was never aired. "This never-aired half-hour episode was commissioned by the U.S. Treasury Department in an effort to promote buying savings bonds. It was sent to schools, civic groups and churches for viewing. The message was that by buying savings bonds they would help save the country from communist rule."
I think there was a Leave it to Beaver episode similar to this.
@@bobhunter1048 that was a good decision to not air....
@@birdiesbuddy Oh, hit the road, you damned commie.
@@logirogi1468 Right on! This show should be shown today…
This episode is an excellent example of socialism. 😥.
How?
Aw I see now
Yes, it shows the evil of socialism. I'm truly surprised they get away with airing this program. It goes against everything the biden regime is planning for our country, communism and loss of freedoms especially freedom of speech. Already in full force.

"You know what...I sure love America"
@ Rose Ann Bauer. In the future they will ban these episodes. Unfortunately. The government wants to control people. Some people won't care they are convinced they want the free things from government.
they need to show this in the schools today... but they wouldn't understand...

This illustrates perfectly how the current admin. is living high off the hog while we peasants are forced to accept less and less OF EVERYTHING.
Talk about missing the point completely 🙄

Not really but wished that there were episodes that children can learn valuable lessons since parents are way too busy or don't have the time to help their children learn lessons about what society expect them to know already by the time they finish high school instead of being entitled.
Yep , sure do
Do you have any other episodes that are rare? I never saw this one before. It is scary to see how much it is coming true .😢

The ones here commenting about Socialism, do you have even a small clue what true Socialism is, it sure doesn't sound like it.
I really don't think they even understand democracy.
We are not supposed to be a democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic. Big difference.

Boy did George Meany ever have an accent on him!
Free to hand it over to the foreigners. Money talks & BS walks.
Would you please just look at us now? Oh how I wish we could fix this mess with just the purchase of U.S. Savings Bonds, now. But we can't. We've long ago, stopped being diligent about preserving our freedoms. So we've become a tyrant run nation. We live in Tyrantland. And the only one that can free us from it is God, Himself. And He will. We, His people have repented, and have asked Him to. (2 Chronicles 7:14)✝✡

My Aunt gave me a $25 savings bond for Christmas, I had to wait 7 yrs but i got the $25

IMDB says this conveniently fits into the schedule December 21, 1959: Why didn't they air it? Why did they just show it in schools and such? Because that demerits the film with the people who saw this show as entertaining and popular. The communist push was already on in 1959, don't think the central bank wasn't pulling the wool over our eyes even then.
Originally released in 1959.
This is just a plug in behalf of the treasury .
