Wow, Doug's striped shorts are awfully....short! LoL! That is so funny. That's how the short styles were the seventies though, short short short Shorties. 😉 I still remember in my 70s youth, we wore the solid color ones with the white stripe on the side. They were also very very short. I forgot all about that. 👍
@@dynodish oh my gosh! That is so TRUE. We used to wear leg warmers all the time. I lived in Wisconsin so we would wear them over or jeans too in the winter. And yes, terry cloth headbands.😉 That is a fact 👍
Wasn't sure whether anyone already commented on this, but did you see that this episode is a little derivative of "The Red Shoes" (1948)? Demanding director forcing prima ballerina to choose between love and the dance. It's a beautiful, artistic film and, I believe, still holds up well.
Why is the fact that Willie was married never mentioned again in any episodes? He was so in love with her supposedly. She died of cancer but Willie was seemingly unaffected. Also, what happened to McGee? He proposed to her as well? I wish the stories had more continuity. I still love this lovely show though.
Actually they show some short comments about Willie had been married and also quite a few episodes after the death of the wife shows Willie just at home or running errands for the family reflecting that a fair good amount of time passed and he was reclusive ...It helps to watch the episodes in chronological order.
Agree.. I reaally wish McGee had come back, or she'd been the woman he married who died. I dunno, I just loved McGee, wished she's been his one true love haha
That's a trick to get it down fast..If it really were extra thick we'd be watching her drink it for 15 minutes complete with pausing for brain freezes. LOL
OK, now I've seen everything: Kate exercising in a dress!! Was there some clause in her contract that she never wore pants (or exercise clothes)? Who does this! 😵
She should have been going to Elaine Powers. That was the big fitness studio back then for women. Could have gotten some sponsorship $$$$$'s from them, too.
Not sure how her car ever got fixed? Or his? Lol lol lol Well Willie had a nice family and a nice house. He never yelled at her. He was kind to her. She didn't fall for "him", she fell for being treated well.
@ the only chick who Willie got who was worth a damn was the ballerina. The dumb chick from the health food store wasn't very bright and she was a single mom with a lil baby she would've taken anyone. The radiation chick was cute but he had to practically beg her she kept kicking him to the curb. Diane from Cheers was a big flake. Bambi the stripper was desperate and also not very bright. So Willie didn't really have it going on he managed to finagle dumb and desperate chicks. And the ballerina was half nuts from overwork.

@@XxowendanxX - okay so you have seen all of the episodes. I have to agree with you. It seems as though the writers were trying hard to make him a heart throb but he didn’t have anything to bring to the table. In real life he would have been playing video games in the garage apartment and spending his evenings at the triple X theatre alone.
@ I agree. Willie as a Romeo and chick magnet makes no sense. He was still a boy living at home and he had all these women who were into him. Real women with careers and places of their own. I suppose the rationale was that Willie got all these chicks because he's a nice guy which is a way that most people prefer to believe it should be. Also Buddy got all these 🔥 guys who were way out of her league. I think the writers were pushing that angle that she's a nice girl and deserves hott guys. Meanwhile Nancy who is actually good looking is with a nebbish like Jeff.
@@XxowendanxX One word for ya...bru-tal...eeks it would “seem” you’re one for the surface but I’m sure there’s far more substance to the overall person you are than just one of the superficial...maybe those that have been in love or loved you have found you to be far more substantial than one of surface, superficial character maybe the character Willie deserves the benefit of a doubt in all that you judged him for but maybe my words are futile bc after all, he’s just a character in a script written from words.
Willie was really not the sole reason for her wanting to quit. It had alot to do with her controlling coach. He was a bastard that she actually made excuses for.
When he was married, he lived away from home. I think Nancy had moved out of the guest house after his wife died, so he moved in there. He never leaves home!
Oh you are a tea after my own heart. Yes, I love the ladies of this show except for Nancy. Buddy, Kate and Annie are my girls 😊 the rest of them can go get bent. I believe they nicknamed her Buddy because of what the word means. She is very amiable and makes friends easily.
Well her given name was Leticia. I guess she hated it. She could've gone by Tisha but maybe early in the show she hit on Buddy and has gone by that ever since. Even her teachers call her Buddy. Nice of them. I had one teacher who didn't believe in nicknames. It had to be your birth certificate name. The parents didn't argue for the kid's choice in those days.
I like this show i have been watching for days ,cant get enough .
Know what you mean Been Binging for Days
This episode is priceless. It made me laugh....I never laugh. Thank you.
If you thought this episode made you laugh, wait till you see the one where Willie pulls his pants down
Doug's shorts are from the Richard Simmons collection.
Doug is such a dork, Richard Simmons laughs at him
Doug looked hysterical. I thought it looked like he was running in underwear.
@@marjoriecohn3868 he might be in the closet along with Willie
RIP Richard Simmons.
@@ddivincenzo1194 Legend is, Richard died of shame when he saw Doug wearing his skimpy lil undershorts.

Dolphin shorts☺️
They were so short, Doug needed two hairstyles to wear them
@@XxowendanxX 😂 hahaaaHA!!!!! 👍
I knew we all wore them as young women, but had forgotten the men wore them so short. Pretty funny.
Willie seems to have a new girlfriend he will move in with every episode.
the only thing about this show I don't care for, sleeping with any woman he dates.
I noticed.
@@lindaoscutt62he only got it on with this one because she reminds him of Buddy
Love this show--how did I miss this growing up. Watching all episodes!
I had a pair of baby blue satin short shorts in the 70s...I remember wearing them to Centre Island, Caribana Sunday What a hoot! The 70s was a blast.
I can't unsee Doug's 70's shorts..
Yikes!! 😳😵💫

...This brings back fond memories of "Magical Times." 🤭👍🏽
Willie: “I’ve known you two days move in”

He connects with Lizzie's roommate in a future episode. And yes, he sleeps with her too.
@@lindaoscutt62 Is there anyone he doesn't sleep with? Doesn't appear so.
And Rachel? Wasn't he engaged to her too?
Extra thick milkshake looked pretty damn watery to me. She slurped that baby down in 10 seconds.
That's a trick to get it down fast..If it really were extra thick we'd be watching her drink it for 15 minutes complete with pausing for brain freezes. LOL
I thought that too. Plain old chocolate milk.
@@sydney13ism That's right. A really thick milkshake you need to eat with a spoon. Like the Wendy's Frosty.
Thank you for uploading this show I used to watch as a kid!
It Was a wonderful show
Well that's one way to get out of paying for his tail light...

Kate is classy 😉
@@XxowendanxXI like her style. Sada crafted her clothing beautifully to go with Kate’s character.
@@XxowendanxX Here,Here!! I agree.
I thought I saw everything when Bruce Jenner started working out in a dress 👗
No....Doug......not those shorts.....
Jealous much?
Not sure how her car ever got fixed? Or his? Lol lol lol
Well Willie had a nice family and a nice house. He never yelled at her. He was kind to her. She didn't fall for "him", she fell for being treated well.
And he cooked her dinner.
Willie is such a dork yet he's such a chick magnet lol
That chick was way too cute for him
no
I know and Jeff was a super dork until I realize oh yeah he was wealthy. If a man is wealthy, looks don’t matter much lol
He has a certain charm and I like his curly hair. But I really prefer dark haired men.
@@MTknitter22 I didn't like Jeff at all.
Boy Willies fast... All this shows is in love or whatever the first night..etc...
@ You said it perfectly I was thinking the same. What do they see in him lol😆
@ the only chick who Willie got who was worth a damn was the ballerina.

I didn't realize what a player Willie is. Is there a female he hadn't had relations with?
“I! Have! Never! Had! Sexual! Relations! With! That! Woman! Another slick
Willy, Mr. Rodham.
Then he left his mom to cook breakfast for his hussy of the week
The low culture trash types are always resentful/jealous of Willie in the comments.
Yeah, his sister Nancy, his sister Buddy and his sort of sister Annie. Oh yeah and his mom.
Did Stephanie Zimbalist do her own dancing? I didn't know she's a dancer too.
Willie is the king of the meet cute
Willie gets more ass than a toilet seat
Why is the mother wearing a dress while exercising?
She used to exercise in the nude but the neighbors complained
I liked the 1970s fitness craze.
Who wears short shorts?
We wear short shorts!
Dolphin shorts!! They were ugly back then, especially on guys. lol
Richard Simmons made a career out of Dolphin shorts....LOL
Doug wears short shorts! 😂🤣 If they were any shorter they'd be a mini skirt
Would anyone *really* throw their whole career away for a fling?
It sickens me that Willie was able to bag that cute chick
Quite odd.
Willie was really not the sole reason for her wanting to quit. It had alot to do with her controlling coach. He was a bastard that she actually made excuses for.
@@MariaWelsh-lu6fg It's one thing to make her work hard. But the insults and demeaning crap was unnecessary. He was a loathsome bug.
She told willie hes hitting below the belt. Willies hits to get below the belt.
Those shorts 😳
If you've got it, flaunt it
Yesssssssssssssss!!!!!!! Thank you 😊🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸💜🌸🌸
Was there an explanation of Willie moving back into the guest house?
When he was married, he lived away from home. I think Nancy had moved out of the guest house after his wife died, so he moved in there. He never leaves home!
Does indolence require an explanation?
Willy Magical Time! I don't think so😆
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Since when can't people have a career and a relationship with the same time?
Being a ballerina is not a career it's a life 💯 all the way to be a top ballerina!!!
That's what Willie said when he got that job at Jack-In-Box
I also watched part .
No strings but sex and pizza are ok...
Willie has extra cheese between his legs
Does anyone know what the picture/sign reads in Buddy's bedroom by the door? Just curious😺.
PC Cates It read good neighbors come in all colors.
@@joejoewest thanks😀
It says "my brother is a manwhore"
I really can't stand Willie or Nancy.
I love Buddy, Kate & Annie.
Do they ever say how or why Buddy got the nickname Buddy?
Oh you are a tea after my own heart. Yes, I love the ladies of this show except for Nancy. Buddy, Kate and Annie are my girls 😊 the rest of them can go get bent. I believe they nicknamed her Buddy because of what the word means. She is very amiable and makes friends easily.
@@XxowendanxX yes, I adore Oolong tea! Thanks for the information on Buddy's nickname!

Nice of them. I had one teacher who didn't believe in nicknames. It had to be your birth certificate name. The parents didn't argue for the kid's choice in those days.
What is Buddy’s real name on the show? Is it ever revealed?
Letitia
@@Xanthas71 thank you, now I remember, I used to watch that show many years ago
Laticia
Yes, Letícia.
I hated Stephanie Zimbalists role. Stand-offish, rude, absolutely frustrating!
She should have played Nancy
