During the 1970's ABC television in America decided to copy a popular British show called "Man About The House." The new program fit well into the classic tv sitcoms category. They hired three unknown actors and named their new show "Three's Company." This series lasted for eight full years until the network decided to cancel it. For years people enjoyed watching Jack, Janet and Chrissy get into all types of chaotic situations. Once the show was canceled they made a new show called "Three's A Crowd." It failed to attract viewers from the previous comedy.
Everyone who is older than the age of sixty can remember one funny lady with red hair on television. Her name was Lucille Ball and she had a show titled "I Love Lucy." This was one person who had many fans across the globe and the show even traveled to different countries.
The production company was also owned by Desi and his wife and they decided to change female characters in television. No other woman had ever done physical comedy before Lucille and each episode featured this unique ability. The character of Ethel Mertz was always there to assist Lucy.
During the 60's Barbara Eden was not permitted to show her belly button on a show called "I Dream Of Jeannie." The producers did their best to cover her stomach each time an episode was filmed. Jeannie was a carefree magician who liked to romance her master Tony Nelson. At times she would even flirt with his handsome friend Roger Healey. After some years the show made the mistake of marrying Jeannie and Tony.
Another show which featured a magical woman was "Bewitched." The star of this event was Elizabeth Montgomery and she played on this cursed show until the bitter end. Many actors who starred within this series have all passed away and the first casualty was Alicia Pearce. She portrayed the first Gladys Kravitz and died after the second season. The show also had two men who played the role of Darrin Stevens. Dick York quit this series and was replaced by Dick Sargent.
People of color were very proud to watch "Good Times" during the 70's. This was a funny show which featured Esther Rolle and John Amos. They were the parents to three teenage children while living within a poor area of Chicago. John Amos stayed with the series for three years and then left because of a contract dispute. Esther Rolle did four seasons with this comedy before retiring.
Anyone who loves animals will certainly watch a series called "Mr. Ed." Ed was one talking horse who could create all kinds of problems for his master. In one episode this animal pressured his owner into buying him glasses. Later on it was discovered that the crew smeared peanut butter onto Ed's lips to obtain animated action.
It seems as though Ginger, Mary Ann, The Professor, Gilligan, Skipper and the Howells will always be trapped on "Gilligan's Island." This is one show from the 60's that is well worth watching again and again.
