- The Hendersons are concerned when Miss Matilda, the instructor of Donnie's dance class, reports that their son is a awkward klutz and the girls had to draw straws to see who would have be his dance for the annual dance recital. Beulah and Bill offer to show Donnie a few of their dance steps and soon Donnie is dancing the jitterbug with confidence and panache. Unfortunately Donnie's date cancels at the last minute and the date Beulah finds for the youngster stands a full foot taller than the 10-year old. To make matters worse, Donnie's new jitterbug skills don't translate well to waltzing. -David Bassler, imdb.com

I so love me some Hattie McDaniel..Wish this show had lasted longer and Miss Hattie had lived to make many more shows and appearance's
I loved this lady like a grandmother. At 74 I still miss her.
Stuffy Singer, who played the son, is 79 years old now and will turn 80 in November.
5:27 "Let's get something a little more groovy!" I love it!❤ Her smile is priceless.
Thank You So Much for this and all of the other great tv shows ♥️
Hattie is something else still has that magic after gone with the wind.
Thanks for this show, Mike. I get to view it because of you. :).
this little boy calling that grown woman “Beulah” and that grown man “Bill”....
So disrespectful….typical.
Meanwhile she’s calling that kid Master Donnie
@@noble604 yeah it's messed up.but that's how it was back then.
Back when America was "great" according to Trumpelstiltskin. Sadly, that was a Southern tradition from antebellum days which filtered up and out through the rest of the U.S. It apparently went past race in some instances. There was a 1956 movie, "The Bad Seed" about a child sociopath who murdered several people. One of her victims was the handyman, Leroy, of the apartment building where she lived with her upper-middle-class family (father an army colonel, mother a housewife and [adopted] daughter of a nationally famous and respected journalist). She talked down to him, scolded him, and called him by his first name while all the other adults were Mommy, Daddy, Aunt Monica, Miss Fern, Grand-daddy, Mr. Tasker, etc. Her rude effrontery was class-based as she saw Leroy (who spoke with a Southern drawl, btw) as beneath her socially. Apparently she was allowed to do so by her mother and the landlady, Aunt Monica. Funny thing is that the Leroy never called her, Miss Rhoda (he was white), nor did he ever call her by name. Once he addressed her as, "Miz Uppity" to her face. Blacks had to call whites "Mr.", "Miss", or "Master" (for young boys) attached to their first names.
TheGoddessDiana - Thanks for sharing! I watch retro tv and the show “Hazel” about a housekeeper and the family she works for is on sometimes and everybody - including the kid in the house - called white Hazel “Hazel” but white Hazel surely wasn’t walking around calling that kid “Master.” Not only were little white kids thinking they were equal to adults by calling them by their first name as their housekeeper but, in our case, the respect thing was totally flipped because they’re calling us by our first name while we’re grown AND we’re giving these little kids a title, too.......... just for being white. No wonder they believe it’s owed and automatic, like royalty. It was instilled since birth.
🗣🎤 Ms McDaniel was the FIRST woman of color to win the Academy Award for best supporting actress in Gone With the Wind wayyyyy back in 1940. Let that marinate a bit 🙏🏽
Let me fix that for you... First Black woman.
1st Black woman. But I get your politically correct comment though..
Laughing but not laughing at both you. In 1940 “we” weren’t referenced as black or persons of color….but I get both of your “politically correct” ness. Have a great day 💞
@@ElleBrOw News flash! It's not 1940 it's 2021. You said woman of color. Well, in 1940 we were basically the only color in America. If the parlance of the day is what you were shooting for "women of color" ain't it.
@@bgbraz Ummm I didn’t “shoot” for anything. Nor did I comment to argue my comment. The only ethnicity ever changing is blackness…meanwhile I’m an Israelite 👀 but this isn’t about me or you. Nevertheless thanks, however you should’ve been around in 1940 to argue it’s not needed to today. At least not here 💞
BLESSED DAY STAY SAFE
Hattie McDaniel played this role for only 6 episodes before becoming ill with cancer.
😢 She's with the Lord 🌌
I've heard about Beulah but this is the first episode I've seen. I think the show began on radio. Hattie McDaniel broke segregated housing laws and practices in LA when racists suing her for purchasing a home lost their case. I have visited her LA home , it is a private home so I couldn't go in but it is a large lovely home on a corner lot. Jim Crow popped up again when the cemetery Miss McDaniel wanted to be buried in rejected her request . These things happened in California, not Mississippi. Shameful.
Good morn reelblack 🙋🏽♀️
The Refreshments go with her😄😄😄😄😄
Thanks for this great way to Spend my Sunday Eye love movies like this
I'm surprised Bill didn't eat up all them sandwiches 😄👍👍🇺🇸
Great Show x
Love this... shows how easy we can teach others in just about anything if folks are willing to learn, that lil boy ain't know anything about talk game until ms buelah put em on.... SALUTE 🙌🏾
THIS HURTS!!!
This is something to see. All whites at a party and 2 black servers.
People need to see this.
This is full of the worst stereo types, the husband is lazy and broke. The wife is a maid that loves to serve the white family and loves them more than her own family.
@@kidgrebo1 Actually, they aren't married. She is spending her time chasing a man who's stringing her along. That chuckle at the end is an indication that he isn't interested in letting her "hook" him.
@@Purple_Majesty1 You missed the main point I was trying to make. Both of those characters display those horrible black stereotypes.
When I was in first grade in 1959 my mom got me dance lessons from a high school girl who taught me the same dance steps as Bill and Beulah.
Wasnt born yet but i like it
Hattie was such a beautiful woman...If she was a alive in the 70s or 80s she could have played Eddie Murphy's grandmother in a movie or Richard's Pryor's mother in another movie.
Thanks for sharing
🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
"how come you think of me as a fish?"
"because someday im gonna hook ya"
she's such a flirt
Hi.
I have only heard and read about this show. But it pains me. Hattie brought has much dignity as she could.
Yikes
facts 🤦🏿♀️
And this had the nerve to be a role given to a history making Oscar WINNER.
🙏🏾🙏🏾
I can't.
If bill and Beulah was kissing this show would have been banned in the KKK south, of the time. That is how bad things were.
My neighbor had a black mammiewas very sweet n strick on us
The REAL Precious 😂😂😂😂
🤦🏿♀️
I didn't care for this footage. Hollyweird lacks morality in much of what it produces. But back then it was seriously lacking in humanity... during that time the roles for black actors were demeaning for the most part. Hopefully, as a human race, we will and can learn from the errors of our ways and do better as a people. SHALOM
WHITE PEOPLE Q&A?? STRANGE FRUIT!!
