@10:51 min. That is such brilliant situational comedy writing -- when Sally is served the coffee and is about to throw THAT LUMP OF SUGAR into her coffee.
theres another episode where laura gets love letters from an uber hunk who was an old flame of laura's who turns out to have become a priest funny and deep like Reiner's usual style... genius he was
She didn't "get" 'love letters' from "Joe Coogan" (the boyfriend turned "priest"), she had his sonnets, written to GOD, in a shoebox in her closet. She only thought they were to her, until she read them after seeing him again (in that episode), and understood he had written them to God.
Having celery sticks, pickles, etc was fairly common back then at meals. Celery use to be a cheap vegetable before idiots started juicing it and drove up the prices.
Wow so glad this is on TH-cam and I wish I could meet this type of woman she is loyal faithful and caring not like today's women who try to destroy men and take over and sleep with as many guys as they can and are narcissistic and just want money "options" How do I teleport myself back to this time!
Actually I know I have seen at least one episode where Buddy is insulted as being fat. I guess for the show anyway, if you weren't built like Rob or Laura you risked being called fat.
the writers office was kinda dumpy...intentionally so, but look at the inside of the office door...its exquisite. the wood grain is fabulous...unless its formica of course
SCRIPT.....nothing but SCRIPT, not the true person. It's nothing but stupid television "comedy," no truth in it....especially this show, where lies and deceit were written into at least 99% of the episodes....just like today's "reality" tv, which has nothing but lies, as well.
A delightful job by Jacques Bergerac. I've always wanted to applaud along with the audience as he exits at the end.
This is what you call brilliant television!!! Dick Van Dyke is so talented!!! Long may he live!!! God bless him!!! 🙂🌞🌻💛🙏
He has so far. He's 97. He's married to a woman who is 46 years younger ! Interesting.
??????? He's already 97....how much longer do you want the man to live, for snark's sake?!?!
@@jb6712 Well, I think he's going to live longer than you.
@@oldblackstock2499Ain't he great 😊?
Dick Van Dyke was my favorite TV show in 1962 when I was 7 but the Have Gun Will Travel dude also had a great show for youngsters.
Really Love Tne Dick van Dyke Show
Ahhh those 2 embraces in the office. Sooo genuine. ♥
REINER was such a genius...
sweet message in a little story.
Written by Bill Idelson.

Their timing is perfect! I replayed it a few times to enjoy it more
When Mary Tyler Moore takes the wrapping tissue from the shoebox to blow her nose 🤣😂
Great writing by Bill Idelson. Beyond clever. Bill appeared in several episodes as Herman Gimschler, Sally's milquetoast boyfriend.
Bill Idelson was also perhaps the bravest WWII veteran in the Hollywood industry.
I've seen these shows so many times & never knew writer Bill Idelson played Herman Glimscher. Thank you!
@@kurtgubitz
There were a *lot* of WWII veterans in Hollywood then.
There has never been better on screen chemistry than between Dick and Mary. In fact I vote them the cutest couple there ever was real or fictional!
Great episode of Dick Van Dyke!😃
Omg!!!!! I soooooooo LOVE these characters/stars!!!!!
Millie is hilarious 😂
She an awesome comic actress.
Nice gams, too. Something I never noticed/appreciated as a kid.
I know right 😅. Love her
Millie's most memorable line ever... "You * Are * SO * DEEP". 😄
Rob n Laura were a cute couple . I watched the DVD show because I love Rob,Laura.❤
theres another episode
where laura gets love letters
from an uber hunk
who was an old flame of laura's
who turns out to have become a priest
funny and deep
like Reiner's usual style...
genius he was
She didn't "get" 'love letters' from "Joe Coogan" (the boyfriend turned "priest"), she had his sonnets, written to GOD, in a shoebox in her closet. She only thought they were to her, until she read them after seeing him again (in that episode), and understood he had written them to God.
They didn't have Uber back then, so he couldn't have been an uber hunk
@@Vincent-ke5zn The Nazis didn't use Uber either... but they used the term Ubermensch or superhuman.
Awesome show!
Millie was a busybody so could NEVER KEEP a secret at ANY TIME!
Jerry and his wife always seems like they be laughing at Laura when she's upset 😝
Great video
The song they dance to at the end is beautiful, does anybody know the name?
I Only Have Eyes For You
@@sharksport01 thank you!
Anyone else noticed that Laura's dinners seem to always have celery? And full length stalks too. Wonder who came up with that idea and why?🤔
Having celery sticks, pickles, etc was fairly common back then at meals. Celery use to be a cheap vegetable before idiots started juicing it and drove up the prices.
My mom way back them served celery all the time.
They probably held up well for a great length of time while filming
Celery is now an expensive delicacy, due to insane grocery prices. Laura was ahead of her time.
Celery stalks are great for the blood pressure!
Wow so glad this is on TH-cam and I wish I could meet this type of woman she is loyal faithful and caring not like today's women who try to destroy men and take over and sleep with as many guys as they can and are narcissistic and just want money "options" How do I teleport myself back to this time!
Wow! You might want to look for another type of woman. They are out there. Or change your attitude. You might be scaring the good ones away.
Rob said they were going to the den, then went thru the door leading to Richie’s room? Or does that door lead to a hallway? Seems like a weird layout.
No richie room was around the corner
I wonder if a man with Mel's build was really considered a "fatso" back then.
Actually I know I have seen at least one episode where Buddy is insulted as being fat. I guess for the show anyway, if you weren't built like Rob or Laura you risked being called fat.
Mel was far from fat!
@@kristabrewer6736 But he wasn't built like a dancer you see. I'm not a whiner. I'm just milking this for laughs.
I thought the same thing! He actually looked like a healthy weight.
Wow
But, sometimes, celery is more than celery; just take a peek at some of the artwork from Chicago-born artist Art Frahm...
All I can think is that this was the "Friends" of the 60s...
Or Home improvement 60's verson rob is like 60's tim
This is SO much better than "Friends" could ever hope to be.
Friends was straight from hell.
"Friends"??? That was a bunch of singles, these are two married couples. Three, if ya throw in Buddy and Pickles. Terrible comp.
the writers office was kinda dumpy...intentionally so, but look at the inside of the office door...its exquisite.
the wood grain is fabulous...unless its formica of course
xoxo
This guy is very inconsiderate and annoying to Rob and Laura
You do realize this is a comedy show?
@@bloodgrss Aww, don't spoil everyone's fun discussing their ideas, feelings, and questions about the show.
SCRIPT.....nothing but SCRIPT, not the true person.
It's nothing but stupid television "comedy," no truth in it....especially this show, where lies and deceit were written into at least 99% of the episodes....just like today's "reality" tv, which has nothing but lies, as well.
Dear jb, you need an attitude adjustment. No violence, bad words, just sweet, funny story.
Um, He was a nice guy!
