I only came here because Arlene Francis was in it. I like Mary Wickes too...

[@petervance6777]

Arlene Francis always seemed so genuinely happy..I’ll have what she’s having 👼

"Excuse me, I'm boiling..." Gertrude Berg was adorable.

I love old black & whites comedies but never heard of this one

[@oswaldomilano3848]

wow thanks, GEEZ, I DID WISH TO SEE ARLENE PERFORMING!

[@MrJoeybabe25]

At last! I've heard about this series for years and have never seen it before now! Thanks!

[@eepanusstar5940]

My mom loved Gertrude Berg-thanks

[@CuppaTea_UK]

Thank you very much indeed for these rare extraordinary episodes featuring brilliant Gertrude Berg ...

I am so glad I came across this it's so 60s I love it

[@MrJoeybabe25]

What a cool look at the early 60's on campus! This is the first show I've seen but I hope you upload them all. Gertrude is one of the great actresses of all time. Mary Wilkes is a perfect sidekick for her. Mrs. G. is so lovable, it is so sad this only lasted a season.

I had never heard of this series before! CZcams can be a course in TV history!

[@alexrafe2590]

@diamondtiara84 nor had I but I’m glad I came across it. I’ve only seen Arlene Francis on game shows, like What’s My Line and Password. I really enjoyed seeing her act in a sitcom.

[@michaelynedwards1043]

Good, but I’d watch mediocre or bad if Mary Wickes in it.

[@eepanusstar5940]

same here-love Mary Wickes

[@MrJoeybabe25]

More to come, I hope!

Karyn kupincet was murdered in 1963. Very interesting story there.

[@joemackey1950]

Very much so.

[@javiervalverde2374]

Supposedly she knew that the Kennedy Assassination was going to happen. She was dating Andrew Prine who knew about it as well. He was a suspect in the murder be knew some of the conspirators

Flint Michigan!

[@kaleahcollins4567]

Aww Mrs. G likes Professor Crayton

[@musicom67]

JAHFA Productions, Mrs. Berg...

[@MrJoeybabe25]

Arlene's daughter looks like a young Sandy Duncan. Is it her?

[@kathrynfauble9053]

@Joe Postove No

[@GodsFavoriteBassPlyr]

Her name is Bennye Gatteys. She was born in 1940 (now 82). She retired from acting in 1977 and got into real estate (according to Wiki), but had a fantastic life and career.

[@MrJoeybabe25]

Any more of this great show, Alan?

[@anneroselli161]

Alan you are grand love you

[@carababyboomer4726]

Volume too low

[@melissageiger71]

That's definitely Sandy Duncan...

[@kathrynfauble9053]

@Melissa Geiger It’s not her. Closing credits confirm it’s not.

[@luruperchausse10]

Not Sandy Duncan.

[@MerleOberon]

Wondering why this is rated PG?

[@adamodeo9320]

Karyn kupchnet was murdered a yr later with ties to the Kennedys
