    I loved that house so much. I loved the "Butler's Staircase" off the kitchen, it drives me crazy when shows on HGTV always want to rip out these second staircases; I love original, traditional floorplans and hate when they knock all the walls down for an "open" floorplan ... Just, no

      I think this is an example where the script has nothing to do with the presentation of the actual character as portrayed by this particular actress. The writer is just filling up space or making the doctor say something, or anything authoritative to sound doctor-like.

      @@shelley6477 so, i'm kinda in between shelley and xanthas71: i was born in 1961 and we lived in a small desert town in california. we definitely had a milk man - but no glass bottles anymore - who not only delivered to our house, but let us kids ride on his milk truck as he made the stops around the neighborhood. i, too, was allergic to dairy as a child, and the youngest in the family. so i loved being able to ride on top of the ice cream freezer on the truck and then pick out a frozen rainbow sherbet push-up for 'helping the milk man with his duties'. great memories. :D

    I've only seen three episodes of this series, and already I hate Nancy. She's worse than Gloria on All in the Family. And as for Jeff, he's a lot like Meathead, only not nearly as liberal. I also want to say that Willie and Buddy are the best kinds of friends anybody could want, because they don't give up on the people pushing them away. Which episodes don't focus on Nancy, so I can give this series a better chance? I haven't hated a character named Nancy this much since Little House on the Prairie.

    It looks so weird to see people running about public spaces without surgical masks and interacting so closely with strangers. I think the pandemic has permanently changed my brain, certainly my perceptions, perhaps my life. I don't know if I can go back to living how people lived back in the 70s. The survivors of the 1918 influenza pandemic were that way, too. Ever wonder where the stiff-armed Fascist salute came from? In 1920, Benito Mussolini was still uncomfortable with the old custom of shaking hands! Nihil novem sub solem...

Baxter never progressed with the character & never quite came off convincingly as thoroughly selfish in later years...conflicted yes, but not outright mean, which lent her Nancy portrayal not altogether dislikeable. She played her frustration with Jeff very convincingly. I suspect that Baxter vented some of her own marital strife during those more vexing scenes with Jeff.
