I just love the TV programs from my childhood ... among the comedies, there were December Bride, Bringing Up Buddy, Pete and Gladys, Angel, Love On a Rooftop...oh so many, but they weren't rebroadcast through the years the way I Love Lucy was. So a KZread channel like this is especially welcome.
I never knew that this show existed. Great find!
My family and I watched this show every week. My mom gave my baby brother Carnation I his bottles.

Yes, the last few Years I lost interest in any new TV. I watch Old Shows and Movies on here every day! I make up a Playlist the night before of what I want to see the next day!
Love this show. Very funny. Harry Morgan from Dragnet and Mash stars in the show. Love sitcoms from the 50's and 60's. Thanks.
Most of these old shows I know of even if they were before my time, but I never heard of this show.I was only an infant when this was made.God, Harry Morgan sure looks young! Gale Gordon must have been on every sitcom made before 1975.LOL.He was on radio, too, before tv.

I was thinking the same thing. This was just after Lucy/Desi ended their run and they modeling the tremendous success of female comedic actors like Lucille Ball. TV always tried what worked before and not was original.
Love these classics shows. Ahhhh, look at that beautiful, spacious kitchen. No string of obesity, hypertension, and diabetes then. WOW, how far America has fallen.(3/19/18)

There weren't thousands of actors under contract back then and they sure kept the hundred or so comedic ones busy.
Yes, This Episode Is The Funniest Ive Seen!
Originally telecast on October 30, 1961.
...I remember watching this TV- but I don't remember this particular episode...
Boy did Gale Gordon have to deal with the crazy redheads or what? lol!😁😁
Thanx muchly for sharing, Stu! I hadn't seen Pete and Gladys since it was first run. Always loved Harry Morgan. Thanx for keeping the ads, too. Great nostalgia trip.
Okay her little kid smile is terrifying
I was home from school sick, watching reruns of this show when they interrupted the show and announced that the President had been shot, Nov. 21, 1963

She looks a lot like Lucy and is just as funny.
Don't ask her if she's okay,or anything when she falls. That was odd

Doesn't she sound like Lucille Ball. Kind of looks like her too.

I guess it was common back then. My mother gave me something called Pet milk similar to Carnation. She had told me the doctor told her to change to that milk because I had bad colic. Apparently babies were given whole milk back then in their bottles if they weren't breastfed. This was in 1954. And my mother specifically told me she did not want to breastfeed 😱😃
Though officially a spin off of December Bride this was CBS attempt to mimic the success of that most famous redhead Lucille Ball using some of the same personnel as ILL , This was during the two years between the end of Lucy-Desi specials and Balls return to CBS-TV . CBS even tried Ms. Williams on a second attempt in 1964 with Balls return in the fold .

It is said that when Bob Schiller and Bob Weiskopf spent their years writing for "Pete and Gladys," Lucille Ball chided them: "You gave some of your best material to that OTHER redhead!"
Hi Stu! How did the program with Cara Williams go? I would love to see it!!!!
I remember this show from when I was a kid, it was probably in syndication by then. For those unaware, Pete And Gladys was one of the first " spin-off " comedies, with September Bride being the "original " series. I alway thought this was funnier than LUCY because it relied a bit more on jokes than physical comedy. My favorite episode is on YT. Gladys forgets pretty much everything on a very hectic day.

At 3:38, Uncle Paul mentions bowling ball. What episode was that?
He was later Colonel Potter on MASH.

Cara Williams was a very good comedic actress. And she was amazing as a dramatic actress in the movie the defiant ones. But I hate to say that Harry Morgan was miscast as her husband in Pete and Gladys. he’s depressing - a little Harry Morgan goes a long way so he is better suited as a supporting actor. There’s nothing for Cara Williams to work off of. Two or three years later Carol Williams was in another sitcom and that was a better one but I can’t remember its name. Too bad she didn’t get the right cast to work with. Perhaps if she had been cast more with Gail Gordon ….
So sexist. Those two jerks didn't ask her how she was after she fell. Also, the commercial was sexist too. I was a child at that time. I see it now for the sexism.
