@Tonetare Why should he? It's his house too. Just say no. Of course, he might want to start filming at that point in case she decides to ram her face into a door and falsely accuse him of something.
Yea and he sided with Thelma the time they had her to babysit little Eugene😂 Alberta didn’t want to discipline him but the Reverend was all for it😂😂😂😂😂 he pulled his sleeve up and lit into him😂😂😂😂😂😂 then Thelma go say hold on Reverend I think you missed a spot😂😂😂😂😂
@@judethaddeus9856 If you can't see the humor in the writing for this episode, why are you watching and commenting on this social site, you humorless dolt? I hope I haven't offended you. I do know humorless dolts get offended easily. Perhaps you should stick to watching episodes of 'The Cosby Show', that would probably be more to your liking.
Thelma and Bubba’s characters have come a long way since the carol brunette skits. I can look back on bubbas parent teacher conference on carols show right now 😂
"Alberta, Juvenile Hall is not a prison. It's a wonderful place where they try to help young people with their problems." "HA!" (Thelma pretending to speak Swedish) My favorite part. 😂😂😂😂
I love how stupid Reverend Meechum was; even though he was just told Inga couldn't speak English, he figured that speaking English with an accent would make her understand. ;)
Love this episode wished the whole episode was shown. Its a " hoot" its like living w the Ma Barker Clan...hahhhaaa...so near right b...h. That is a great comedy show would love to get the DVDs ...Please ! R.I.P. Ken Berry 12/ 01/2018. Love ya always a laugh. ♥️🕊
The name of this episode was S3, E11 “Where’s There’s Smoke”, it wasn’t called, “Inga”. “Bonita Rokeke” was played by voice actress Yeardly Smith, who has been portraying the voice of Lisa Simpson since 1989. When she started acting she was in an “ABC After-school Special” in 1984. I first remember seeing her in 1985 in “The Legend of Billie Jean” as Putter.
Unfortunately Vicki purposely changed the character when they went into syndication, softened her tremendously at the suggestion of Harvey Korman. He warned her that Mama would have to be less sour and dour and more warm and cozy if the show was to thrive. I disagree with that 100%. Thelma Harper was funniest when she was prickly and stone faced and critical, like in the sketches in the 1970s. I like the sitcom Mama's Family ... but the Family skits were simply brilliant dysfunctional comedy pieces. Kudos to writers Dick Clair and Jenna McMahon who helped create the world of Eunice and the other wacky folks of Raytown.
@@eduardo_corrochio I agree with Vickie and Korman, "sour Mama" works ok for a 15 min sketch when she is the deuteragonist and Eunice is the main star...But it wouldn't work for a 30 min sitcom in which Mama is the main character. As Harvey Korman, I believe put it, "Mama would have to do more than just sit around frowning constantly" "
@@jonnaking3054 Sounds valid, but I can't agree, and that's okay. They took the character I loved and made her something else. At least I have the sketches ... and some early "Mama's Family" episodes where the sour Mama is hilarious (like the show when Mama gets a job at the travel agency, etc).
Lmao!!! His paw paw sure did spank his ass at the end. Thelma said hold on Reverend I think you missed a spot lol! I'm getting that episode from amazon this weekend for my birthweek.Surprise his little delinquent ass will be in juvie with Bonita lol! 😂😂😂
When I watched this as a kid I never realized that Bubba and Mama Thelma were probably the same age in real life. I loved this show. It was so relatable. I remember this episode. I think at some point Bubba's sister lived with them (maybe she was a cousin, I don't remember) and I don't remember her name. I never have watched much TV but always watched this show with my family. At some point it was the only thing we did together all week. We were pretty disfunctional and from Mississippi and this was a humorous way of seeing our lives.
@@intangible8 *Vicki Lawrence* (b. Mar. 1949) and *Allan Kayser* (b. Dec. 1963) are nearly 15 years apart in age. He was 22 when he began on the show in the third season (Sep. 1986); she was 37 at the time.
No by mama’s family, Vicki was a bit well into her adulthood more than bubba’s actor was but Vicki started playing mama on carol brunette at just 24. That’s crazy to think about considering I’m 25 lol
I think the couple sitting on right appeared in Golden Girls... The man as Rose's father and the Lady as the woman running away from home n meeting Rose at the bus station!
They were both on the Golden Girls as well as the spin-off show The Golden Palace. However not in those roles. The actor , Earl Boen played a reverend in 2 episodes of Golden Girls and one episode of Golden Palace. The actress, Anne Haney, appeared as Dorothy's roommate when she went into the hospital on The Golden Girls, and on 'The Golden Palat' as an old lady that ran away from a nursing home and Rose wanted to let her stay at the hotel.
The lovely Anne Haney. She was great in the Golden Girls and Mrs. Doubtfire!
And Liar Liar.
And Designing Women!!
Bit she seemed to always play a bitch.
Alberta was such a witch. I'm so glad Thelma was not afraid to put her in her place. I love the way the Reverend would always side with Thelma. LOL!!
But Reverend probably had to sleep on the couch later on that night so doubtlessly Alberta got the last laugh with poor Reverend

RIP Earl Boen I loved his roles on Mamas Family and other shows
When Thelma told Bonita “Shut your face or go to Juvi”😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 in Scandinavian language😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Boy, those Scandinavians have INCREDIBLE appetites!" Gotta love this show.
Why? What’s so brilliant about that?
We do have incredible appetites!😎

Yeardley Smith is so underrated and doesn't get the credit she deserves outside of being the voice of Lisa Simpson.
I thought she was funny in Legend of Billie Jean
And Maximum Overdrive!!
@@destineydevereux4722 "No you cannot come in and watch!"
Because she sucks
And Bart Simpson she does both
2:15 "Mama, that's not Inga that's the Keek!" LOL!
Having a cat named Kiki that I call the keek I was rolling with laughter this entire clip ❤️😂
Vinton is as stupid as a Jack-Ads! He's also very gullible!
One of the show's most brilliant moments!
Thelma may have dropped the ball with her own kids, especially Eunice, but she sure did right by Bubba.
She loves her grandson
Yes, especially that bulge Bubba be packin in his bugle boy jeans.
@@ameliabedelia7018 Amen to that !
That was hilarious how Thelma pretended to speak Swedish
Made me wonder if mama spoke swedish, cuz why did she just pick Sweden out of the blue? Maybe she had to take it in school or something?
Thelma and Bubba’s characters have come a long way since the carol brunette skits. I can look back on bubbas parent teacher conference on carols show right now 😂
"Alberta, Juvenile Hall is not a prison. It's a wonderful place where they try to help young people with their problems."

My favorite part.
😂😂😂😂
Kari Chandler the way she backed away from Bonita when she saying bye to Thelma 😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Right up there w/ the Swedish chef!😎❤
One of my favorite episodes on Mama's Family.
Same here
@@GODBLESSAMERICATHEUSA yes
I love how stupid Reverend Meechum was; even though he was just told Inga couldn't speak English, he figured that speaking English with an accent would make her understand. ;)
Ikr
At least he didn't do the "If I speak really loudly, they'll understand" move. 😊
So true. Judgement doesnt heal. Caring does. Its really not that hard to understand
"Listen to bubba he knows what he's talking about" lol
IndoSmoke151 FREE 🤣😂 Cracks me up when Mama says that.
She said that like when Eunice would ask to stay with her 😂
love ms Harper and when she speaks to Inga and she says " Inga shut push a back to juve" it's so damn funny
I literally laughed out loud! God this is genius.
Plus a few table manners and some fashion tips 😂😂😂
My favorite! Love this episode!!
In this episode Bubba said that Bonita ended up in juvenile hall because she burned down her high school when she wasn't elected prom queen.
One of my favorite episodes on Mama's Family. I love this show.
They always said, Mama stuck up for her family and friends every time.
Love this episode wished the whole episode was shown. Its a " hoot" its like living w the Ma Barker Clan...hahhhaaa...so near right b...h. That is a great comedy show would love to get the DVDs ...Please ! R.I.P. Ken Berry 12/ 01/2018. Love ya always a laugh. ♥️🕊
Damn, Bubba was fine AF.
"Well, mama, now who do we have here?"
"Where?" XD
GinnieKinz💜 you mean Her
Yeardley was so funny in this one. Reminds me of her character named Putter in "The Legend of Billie Jean" film.
Hello, Edith,
How are you doing today?
I dont remember her in TLOBJ... wow
I loved that movie- Fair is fair!

S3, E11 isn’t the name of the episode
No one said the name of the episode was Inga, calm down
Cool! 👍
This show was one of my favorites theat my mom used to watch
Yeardley Smith is actually cute in an adorable way. She has weird eyes, but has a cute face and a cute, adorable squeaky voice
👺 ROLLS!! 💀
🤣 I ROFL every time 😊
Love hearing Lisa Simpson the convict aka the keek
Thelma is such a better character in this series than she was on Carol Burnett. Love it!
She's totally a different person
She's kinder and sillier. Which would probably be easier to write a half hour sitcom around that.
Unfortunately Vicki purposely changed the character when they went into syndication, softened her tremendously at the suggestion of Harvey Korman.

He was eye candy
That old lady with the pearls is the inspector on Mrs.Doubtfire 👻
Mrs.Doubtfire: “HELLOOO!!!”
love Mother Harper
They need to upload the episode with the rev. Meechum's grandson Little Eugene lol!
OOOH, I used to want to whoop Little Eugene's ASS! Mama did, too! Lol...
Lmao!!! His paw paw sure did spank his ass at the end. Thelma said hold on Reverend I think you missed a spot lol! I'm getting that episode from amazon this weekend for my birthweek.Surprise his little delinquent ass will be in juvie with Bonita lol! 😂😂😂
Let's put Little Eugene's bad ass on "Good Times" with big James Evans Sr, and see how he'd fare... LOL! ;-)
+J Miller yeah like that episode of Good Times when James whopped the bully that stole Michael's lunch and lunch money.
Lmao that fuckn brat
Vicki Lawrence pretty much recreated her Scandinavian accent from when she played aMrs aTudball on the Carol Burnett show
I think this was my favorite Mama’s Family moment ❤️
Bonita = Yeardley Smith (Lisa Simpson). And Alberta Meecham = Ms. Sellnar from Mrs. Doubtfire.
"I had a cat named Snowball... She DIED, she DIED...."
LMAO.
"mom said she was asleep, she lied, she lied.."
Why, oh, why is my cat dead? Couldn't that Chrysler hit me instead?
@@Charmedone9805 I had a hamster named Snuffy, he died--
Wish they would let people upload MM episodes again classic.
theres full episodes on dailymotion
They do upload them
czcams.com/video/MkXFnSiwRaM/video.html
One of my top five favorite Mamas Family episodes. The rest have Eunice or Ellen in them
Just that shot at 0:54 of everyone staring at her is great
💖💖💖 that's Mama Harper.
Could you imagine if Little Eugene had been in this scene, joining his grandparents dining with the Harpers when "Inga" sauntered in?
That would've been hilarious. 😂
Reverend: Tell me, Inga, what church do you attend in Sweden?
Bonita: ROLLS!
Mama: Uh, she means Holy Rollers! (tosses a roll to Bonita)
😂
“Just a damn minute! No offense Reverend.”
It's Lisa Simpson
Where kmsl
@@divadavis6542 the one eating rolls is the one who made lisa
Who is Lisa Simpson?
@@laraoneal7284 Character from the Simpsons on Fox
I still remember her from Maximum Overdrive, with that screeching voice yelling, CURTISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS and Lisa Simpson too from The Simpsons.
Bonita Rokeke, AKA The KEKE!
And later on, Bubba's wife.
@@sha11235 when did bubba marry the keek
She the voice of Lisa Simpson
Love those two with the hypocrisy when it’s their grandson Eugene who’s the ultimate little brat.
"ROLLS!"
She meant "Holy Rollers".
I know. Best answer EVER!! LOL
And I loved that Mama chucks one at her lol
Damn Bubba hot af.
My favorite show
My favorite episode
Now just a dayum minute here!!
Naomi: Ms. Harper, do you know who that is?
Mama: Lisa Simpson.
Bonita is Yearly Smith The voice of Lisa Simpson
The famous "Keek" episode.

Yeah Yardley Smith
I think it is
Yes.
Yup. Yeardley Smith was great here.
Yup. Lisa, before becoming a vegetarian...

Bubba was around 23 and mama 34. Not that far off, considering she was playing his grandmother...her talent made it believable.

The Keek!!!!
Fun fact: all Scandinavians can are taught English since kindergarten and are proficient at it. You might not even know their from Scandinavian.
I liked her on Murphy Brown who pestered Miles in the airport and was heartbroken to find out that he had a girlfriend.
Alberta was always a snob to Thelma.
Who watching in 2022
I wish these words would stay off here
Wow. I'm getting old, that little girl became the woman on "Inside Hermans Head" and the Voice of "Lisa Simpson"
Omgosh that's Yeardly Smith aka Lisa Simpson
I named my demon cat kiki after bonita rokiki!!! Lol
michele adams lmao 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Before Madea, there was Mrs. Thelma Harper. She would clap with anyone by putting you in your place.
I just realized as Lisa Simpson
I used to think Bubba was hot, now he looks like Rue Mcclanahan.
@@marchorton2903
Now watching this show. Have no idea what he looks like currently.
OMG LMFAO
Don't do those drugs anymore. Those are the bad ones.

Wasn't the lady in the blue dress in Mrs. Doubtfire?
Hey that’s Yeardley Smith The voice of Lisa Simpson
Omg, that's Lisa Simpson 😂
3:10 That's the voice actress of lisa simpson
Yeardly Smith starred in Maximum Overdrive and The Simpsons
Is Alberta the the same woman who played the detective or social worker role in mrs. Doubtfire?
Yep, same one!
IT'S LISA SIMPSON!!!
At first I thought that was Yeardley Smith (the voice of Lisa Simpson).
Go with your instinct.
Yeardly Smith as 'Inga/Bonita' (Lisa Simpson from the Simpsons)
Please upload full episodes! Please please. Miss this

Lisa Simpson wouldn't eat that chicken, she's a vegetarian, ha!
That's Yeardly Smith. Better known as Lisa Simpson. I can't believe she really talks like that.
It's Mama's voice.
People shouldn't laugh at mama when she
Talks.
Lisa let herself go
LOL!!!😝
Bonita Rokiki.

Why does the actor playing the reverend seem to always play people of the cloth? Was he one in real life at one point before becoming an actor?
It's his niche. I think I've also seen as a lawyer or judge.
He was typecast. He played one on "Golden Girls" also but he did other parts as well.
@@billgateskilledmyuncle23 he was mayor once on newhart.
