RIP Valerie.... thank you for all of the laughs
The actor Lorenzo Music, who did the voice of Carlton the Doorman also wrote some episodes Rhoda and Mary Tyler Moore, was a writer and performer on the Smother's Brother's Comedy Hour, was the co-creator of The Bob Newhart Show, and was the distinctive voice of Garfield the cat.
Also the voice of Dr. Peter Venkman in "The Real Ghostbusters" animated cartoon series; later Bill Murray, who played the live-action Dr. V. did the voice of Garfield for the live-action/animated "Garfield" theatrical release.
That's Amazing to know!!
Thank you for Sharing!
I absolutely enjoyed everything about his humour on the show.
This is amazing news to share with others
Ive been in to watching these older shoes that bring me back to my childhood, life was so much simpler and calmer at that time.
Taking that quiet time again is enjoying.
Thanks for the share
Thank you so much for all of this great information!!!! Garfield - that’s it! You helped me finally piece together why his voice is so familiar! 💖👍💖
Quite talented guy! Thanks for the info!
He also did Tummi Gummi on the Gummi Bears!
RIP Rhoda (Valarie Harper) much love and off to the next realm ❤💗💓
Beautifully said.
And a good realm too!! "A new heavens and a new earth......where the resurrected ones will "live forever UPON it." Earth!
Rest In Peace Ms Valerie Harper.
RIP Valerie Harper
goodbye you gorgeous gorgeous lady x
Every time that intercom sounded, I kept imagining a sarcastic orange fat cat on the other end.
lol
RIP MORRIS, the 9 Lives Cat. lol
@@dm95422 Actually, Carlton (aka Lorenzo Music) was the voice of Garfield. Morris was voiced by John Erwin.
OMG... That is hilarious. 👍
Trump was on this show?
Thanks for putting these shows on UA-cam. I was a teenager in the 70's. Boy, these shows sure do bring back memories!
Yes. Love this. 😊
I love the 70s sitcom. Thank you.
Yup! For me too...
I had my apartment broken into in my 20s. Several were broken into that day. It was a nice neighborhood and building. The person took all my jewellery. I was so scared to live there. Stayed at my friend's that night. Got a new lock. The police officer I had was awful. I lived in Ottawa at the time. This was back in the 80s. I was frantic.
*jewelry 🙂
Julie Kavner is the best. Her personality and character just adds to her cute ness.
I’ve thought so too!
Lmao i love when Brenda says "Thank you Raymond. Do send him up" She does a priceless english accent. Best line in the whole episode.😊
Ive been craving to see my Rhoda 70s decor for a few montgs now. Yaaay im back and recharged! Its like comfort food transporting yourself back into the 70s. Definitely my comfort food😊
I like when Nick calls Brenda "little fox" and Carlton is hilarious.
How about the guy who sounds like a seal when he laughs.
Carlton is annoying
The best part of the 70's... RIP dear Valerie.
she was hip without trying to be
Thanks for all of these episodes!
Ruth Gordon is hilarious
The way she portrayed that role was perfection. Reminded me of a Columbo episode she did.
That windup!! 😆😆😆
@Connie D...I was just thinking about that. Its one of my favorite episodes.
Oh what joy,I found the episode I was looking 😀☺️❤️
O..M..G... I JUST DISCOVERED THESE EPISODES ON YOU TUBE! THANKS SOOOO MUCH FOR THESE! I WAS A RHODA FAN AT LIKE AGE 8
LOVE IT! AS A YOUNG BLACK FEMALE FROM A SMALL TOWN..
THIS WAS UNUSAL FOR ME TO BE SO INTO RHODA AT THAT TIME.. ALTHOUGH I DID NOT REALIZE IT AT THE TIME..
THANK GOODNESS FOR MULTI CULTURAL AWARENESS
rhoda was soo NYC funky I was a young black female at 13 but I Identified with RHO more than I did mary who was kind of white bread lol. Liked mary but loved rhoda and Joe
@@bluedov69 , Rhoda was my favorite show back then. When she split up with Joe, it wasn't very good anymore imo
This is really a great show with Carlton. Loved Ruth Gordon as his mom. Rose Prulx
Thank you SO much for all these Rhoda episodes. These were made before I was even born and I discovered Rhoda and MTM a couple years ago on a retro TV network. Totally hooked. The shows still stand up today with very little in the dialouge to "date" them in any significant way. Love, love, love!!!
Same! I could never understand why I was so drawn to Rhoda’s whole aesthetic, I wasn’t even alive in this era. It might be that Rhoda was aspirational for me. She represented all of my neuroticism and complex maternal psyche, but with the confidence to own it.
Also, her wardrobe was goals.
So fun to see the legendary actress Ruth Gordon playing Carlton’s eccentric mom! 😅
"Thank you Raymond. Do send him up!'' ROFL That cracked me up.
Good episode! Ruth Gordon is always a hoot. I first experienced her when she was the nosy neighbor/coven member in the movie "Rosemary's Baby". I also loved her in "Harold and Maude". This show is one of my faves from the 70s, along with "The MTM Show", "The Bob Newhart Show" (not to be confused with "Newhart"), "WKRP in Cincinnati", "Taxi". The only thing that really dates these sitcoms is the lack of electronic gadgetry and, in some cases, the clothes..
Miss Gordon played Curt's grandma on "Newhart" in season 1.
Those aren't the only things that date these show. 😳
She was also Clint Eastwood's mother in the Philo Beddoe movies.
She was fabulous in that great horror flick!! Fantastic!
Ruth Gordon-Classic
Rhoda looks like MaryAnn from Gilligan's Island in those pigtails.
I wanna go back 40 years in time and pull them! ;-)
"Kiss Your Epaulets Goodbye" is the first episode of Season 2 of "Rhoda", and thus the season premiere. Written by Michael Leeson, and directed by Robert Moore. First aired on CBS on September 8, 1975. Starting with this episode, "Rhoda" introduced a new opening sequence, which consisted of clips from Season 1 episodes, intercut with Rhoda in many different activities around New York.
That's my dad (Lee Vines) playing Raymond, the Doorman!
Wow! Wonderful!
Hey! Cool! Jim......June from Maine
COOL!
It must have wonderful working with Valerie and Julie.
You’re a liar! I knew Raymond’s kids & you’re not one of them!! I don’t like liars!!
Today Commemorates Lorenzo Music's 80th Birthday
Ruth Gordon ❤️❤️❤️
Listening to Carlton’s voice makes me happy! I love me Lorenzo Music.
Valerie Harper and Ruth Gordon together,magical,monumental PURE BLISS! Huge appreciation for the sharing of this!
Mark Pollock Where do you live? Pic is familiar.
THey did a horror movie together, Don't Go To Sleep
Ruth Gordon - fabulous!
I will admit it. I miss the 1970's.
The scene with Rhoda and Charlton's mum starting at 16.20 is arguably one of the greatest duologues in sitcom history.
Ruth Gordon of Harold & Maude :)
Brenda was in a whole thruple. This show was so ahead of its time.
Carlton The Doorman was so goofy!
I love Carlton's voice, he almost sounds just like Garfield the cat :)
I'm sure you're joking but he is the voice of Garfield. Great man :)
+moofushu He also sounds like Norm MacDonald.
That is Lorenzo Music, google his name. You will find that he was exactly that.
moofushu that's because he is Garfield☺️
And Brenda is the voice of Marge Simpson
I was 14 when this show started. David Groh was my first "Now i know for a fact i am gay" crush.
Same here! Loved the furry chest WOOF!
I crushed on Joe too when this show originally aired. A hunk of masculinity, that dude.
I felt the same way about Carlton
wasnt he ruggedly handsome ? That was my first white boy crush was so mad when they got a divorce
I think was 10 when show started
Ruth Gordon was SUPERB in this episode. She & Valerie Harper were excellent!!
Ruth Gordon was the most talented writer, director, actress!
@12:29 when she looks 👀 in the bag, you can tell as she turns her head away that she’s trying not to lose it.
It was @19:29 is when Rhoda looks in the paper bag, then looks away as if she's concealing her laughter.
Carlton should have been terminated. In real life, management would never have let him slide. Letting burglars in an apartment with no ID? In NEW YORK?
come on. it's a TV show. Lighten up.
Shirley Gutkowski That was no excuse on Seinfeld. At the very least, Carlton should've been required to attend AA meetings.
I would have reported his behind too! Causing that anguish? Nope. No dice! He should have been fired.
+JhomasE Go easy on him, he's doing a pretty amazing job for a fat orange cat.
JasonMovieGuy Exactly! He NEVER should have gotten his job back.
Did he also let a big orange cat in?
Ruth Gordon. What a classy actress she was. Academy Award-winning for "Rosemary's Baby" also in a movie "Harold & Maude" which I believe was about four years prior to this episode.
11:08 for a split second Valerie looked right at the camera. Also, I love these old 70s sitcoms because they remind me of the homes of my family and my friends’ families when I was a very young kid. The furnishings and styles. But why does Brenda seem to have two pieces of furniture in her apartment neither of which look exactly like a bed or a sofa? (I get the whole small NYC studio apartment thing, but I can’t figure her place out.)
Pull out sofa
"Me neither" Lol. Rhoda should of called Ida over to handle her. Lol. Can you imagine?😂 Lol
Destiny Chaney That would be awesome to see!
The actors were better than the writers. They lifted it off the page and created unforgettable characters. They each deserve an award. RIP
Of COURSE Ruth Gordon is Carlton's mother!!!! So cool!!!!
A great line from the series: "Lenny, you promised no toe talk in front of strangers."
Thank you for uploading these gems of episodes like this one. Love this show and it's too bad that it wasn't renewed after the last episodes of this great show.
The scene with Ruth Gordon was one of the best in the whole series. I remember it from when I was a kid.
I've always wondered ~ Does Carlton EVER get a day off? No matter what time of the day or night, Carlton The Doorman is always the person who answers when Rhoda rings the lobby...
Ruth Gordon.......wonderful lady.
Brenda is adorable in her farmer's daughter outfit. What a talented and under rated actor she is. It's clear that Nick Lobo gave Andrew Dice Clay the idea for his obnoxious character.
Blind Brazilian Tex Atlantis You are not the only one. I had a major crush on her too
I don’t know how underrated she is. She‘s had a steady job for the last 32 years.
For an “underrated actor” she sure has done pretty darn well for herself, considering she voices one of the most recognizable characters on one of the most popular and long-running shows of all time.
Nick played the character like Fonzies stand in. The character of Arthur Fonzerelli played by Henry Winkler came to the masses over a decade, possibly two, before Andrew Dice Clay' and his "Hickory Dickory Dock The......" nonsense.
Valerie & Ruth were in Don't go to Sleep as mother & daughter, a good thriller.
I loved Carlton the doorman!
Erik, There wasn’t anyone like Rhoda 😃
Ruth Gordan is a hoot. Loved her character on the 1971 movie Harold and Maude. Check it out.
She's also good in a later episode of Columbo called "Try and Catch Me".
Do you have any spare meat? sooo funny.
Julie Kavner's yellow owl sweater... So damn pretty!!!
Typical fashion of the 70s lol
"Raymond" was also the name of the announcer for "The Inner Sanctum" radio program.
"It's not easy for a mother to sit by and watch her son get the shaft..."
I feel like there should have been laughter there... Anyone else?
Ida Dudenmanner 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🐸☕️
I expect the writers thought so, but not me. the "old lady uses slang" joke left its best-before date decades ago.
i love Rhoda's pigtails...
Cute
Those are ponytails; pigtails are braided :P
Rest in peace. Beautiful lady
Wonderful memories watching this when I was a kid with my Mom.
The great Ruth Gordon! What an excellent episode.
Am I the only one who finds the theme music incredibly annoying? It was bad in the first season but even worse now. So loud and obnoxious. lol
Emily Edwards lol it is unbearably awful
I liked the spoken intro from season 1. It was a good intro to who Rhoda is. But the music itself was annoying and season two here is beyond awful!
I was just going to ask the same thing - possibly the worst theme music in TV history? Can anyone name worse?
I agree and Rhoda shouldn't have got Carlton his job back. The British guy sounded cool
agree. ALWAYS seemed a bad choice....esp. compared to the wonderful song and opening credits for the Mary Tyler Moore Show.
The intro music should win an award for the absolute worst most annoying theme in the history of television.
I agree. What were the producers thinking???
Gotta luv Ruth Gordon
She's a charmer-
I wonder why Lorenzo used his first name for the developed by and producer credits but only his initial for the voice over credit.
Probably because he didn't initially want to be known as a voice actor. Of course, that all changed, once he started voicing Garfield.
I wondered about that too.
Carlton is a regular cast member so of course I knew he wouldn't stay fired. But I still don't like that he got his job back. Not only did he let strangers with no i.d. into Rhoda's apt without permission but he wasn't even genuinely sorry about it! And I didn't like that Brenda didn't back up Rhoda's complaint to management by saying that Carlton also let Lenny into HER apt that same night when she was out too. Carlton had a dangerous pattern of doing that & hence putting them and other tenants at risk.
This very thing happened in a building I managed. The Desk Clerk (+doorman) was fired immediately and stayed fired. The tenant sued the building and recouped her loss from the building's insurance (her homeowners subrogated). The entire affair was not a bit funny.
Agreed. I'm watching this like, yeah, ok!
I didnt lbike that he got his job either . His mother pleaded with Rhoda and brenda
3:40 nick lobbo’s philosophy is so deep :))) love it. hilarious
Loved Nick.
@@reneebraxton1032 agreed!!!!
I love Rhoda and I'm sorry they tuck her show with that awful theme song :(
The new one is even worse than the first one.
This was not Billy Goldenberg's finest two minutes for sure.
I'm a little offended the cops didn't mention Columbo
"You KNOW who his father was." "No." "Me neither."
I love Brenda's Owl
'You know who Carlton's father was.'-Carlton's mother.
'No.' -Rhoda
'ME neither!'-Carlton's mother.
This is why you need renter's insurance, people!!!
Yes!
Nick:Hey, Hey! Yo Little Fox!
I think Lenny played the boy on MTM show who had a crush on Mary.
Yes
"What do you want me to do? Slap you?" lol. Rhoda got herself together real quick lol.
Like real real quick.
Thanks for a better quality too. I just finished watching season one over the weekend. I always had assumed that only luxury apartments in high rise buildings had their own security and a doorman in the city of New York. Rhoda lives in the Bronx area.
The studio audience laughter is annoying sometimes. They must select certain types of people who laugh out loud at anything. This was taped in LA studios so I assume only local Californians were admitted.
CaptainGrimsdale I hesitate to disagree with you, but Rhoda's and Brenda's parents live in the Bronx. Ida is always complaining about schlepping all the way from the Bronx to visit her daughters and in Episode 3, "Ida's Doctor", when Brenda challenges being referred to as a child, Ida explains that a child is a 22-year-old girl who is not married, lives in Manhattan and works in a bank. I've spent a fair amount of time in NYC and it is indeed a schlep from Manhattan to the Bronx (Yankee Stadium). I it's also a schlep to travel to Queens which is across the East River and just above Brooklyn. There are lots of residential neighborhoods on Manhattan Island such as Chelsea, Soho, Greenwich Village, Gramercy Park, etc., and they're great places to spend hours walking and patronizing cafes and shops. The iconic Victorian era brownstone homes alone are worth a visit. The boroughs of the Bronx (beaten up but not bowed), Queens and good old Brooklyn have charms of their own. No place in the world quite like NYC. One of my favorite places among many.
Melanie Hamilton I am not familiar with the New York area or where the Bronx area is located. I grew up in Sydney Australia and I had assumed the Bronx was part of Manhattan. I never knew how large New York is compared to other major cities around the world.
CaptainGrimsdale I appreciate what you've said. No reason you should have any idea how the 5 boroughs of NYC fit together to form the city. My first trip was with my parents when I was 8 yrs old to visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art, among other places. I didn't return until I was 19 when I visited a sorority sister who lived on Long Island. It's been my good fortune to have had many friends who attended various colleges in NYC and several who have lived there over the years so I've visited many, many times. It's much easier to enjoy the city with folks who know their way around. It can be daunting otherwise, but not at all impossible. Even though I'm from the South and my regional accent gives me away, I've found New Yorkers to be very friendly and welcoming. The energy and the ethnic diversity of NYC are absolutely amazing. Perhaps someday you'll see for yourself. I would absolutely love to see Australia. My stepmom spent 3 lovely weeks there not too long ago. She enjoyed herself immensely.
that annoying laughter is from producer james brooks. he's in all mtm shows and even appeared on a lot of episodes.
CaptainGrimsdale Actually Rhoda, Joe, & Brenda live in Manhattan. Rhoda's parents are the ones who live up in the Bronx.
LOVE! THIS SHOW REMINDS ME OF MY FORMER BROOKLYN SELF!
the problem with Rhoda is that EVERY episode was like the beginning of a new series. Nothing (or almost nothing) ever CONTINUUUUUUED.
They actually did have a B plot with some continuity for Brenda’s polyamorous lifestyle which I had never before defined as such. Clearly, such concepts were far above my theory of mind as when I first watched the series. It just seemed bizarre to me, but I’m going to rewatch with this in mind. Polyamory in the 70s, very avant- guard.
RIP my new idol she was the best and such a force of strength and kindness
Don’t steal the records!
Everyone dissing the intro song.
As a kid I would sit in front of the t.v. and sing along with the other kids. So put a sock in it. 😝
Thanks for the uploads
Hey old man! You old!🤣🤣🤣 Not right!
Carlton!!!! I am appalled!😁
Poor Joe he had to deal with so much with this family.
I recognise this theme tune.
Lenny was stalker status with the pretending he was someone else to get up to her apartment🤔
Are there any of the kids who did the LA LA LA LAS Out there? I hope you went on to better things ‼️😆
Two favorite lines:
"You know who his father was?"
"No"
"Me neither"
"Oh no. Not the blender. I never got to use Puree"
😂😂😂
Ruth Gordon is a classic
I love Ruth Gordan
The simplest TV theme song ever.
A big disappointed tbh
Why did tbey ever have little kids la la la
.......The theme? HORRIBLE!
I agree. La la la
Yes. Horrible!
Oh boi Rhoda at her most neurotic!
332 W.64St. Cheaper rent. 70's!! Early 80's!😊
