  • My sister and my big break on an episode of "I Love Lucy," titled "Tennessee Bound." I am the one on the left and my sister Roz is on the right. Be sure to check out my other videos! :)

    R.I.P. Marilyn (1932-2009) & Roz (1932-2003) Borden; a/k/a "The Borden Twins"
    And thanks to their talents and the talents of Desi Arnaz and Desilu, who innovated the concept of preserving episodic TV on film, this performance will last as long as there remains people interested in the show & in good television comedy.

    Isn't it wonderful that we can be shown this clip by one of its stars? Without the Internet this just could not happen!!
    RIP to you both, you're a piece of TV history.

    Some of this episode's best lines discussed or described Teensy and Weensy. Cousin Ernie says, "They are as close as two peas in a pod . . . well, two watermelons in a patch." At another point, Ernie relates what it was like asking Teensy to marry him, "So I took her aside and asked her to marry me. She said no. Turned out to be Weensy, and she can't stand the sight of me."

    I've just now read the comments further...only to learn that Marilyn has passed on as well. As I write this I am very sad. I once had an autographed picture of them but I lost it in when I moved from the west coast. I always thought of writing to Marilyn to ask her for another one...but I never did. I now regret that terribly. Rest in peace Marilyn and Roz-I love you both.

    I sincerely hope the You Tube channel and the website of The Borden Twins will be preserved and maintained for posterity, perhaps with the assistance & sanction of the Twins' sister Barbara, children, and/or nephews & nieces..
    I never realized the Twins' career lasted so long after their legendary appearances on that episode of "I Love Lucy."
    But even if were not the case, just for that contribution alone, a significant part of our cultural history.

    And sometimes when you watch an old Western movie or TV show, there will be a sound effect of a bullet ricocheting off a rock or some object in the background, after a gunshot is fired.
    As regards this song, I guess a more contemporary term would be "rebound romance," not wishing to be the object of someone's pursuit after that person has just broken up with or "bounced off" another, and then on to another, etc.

    This is the best show that has ever graced American TV! It was funny, well-written, wholesome fun without all of the politically correct, "leftist" pedantic garbage that people like Norman Lear made popular back in the 70's.
