I still watch My Three Sons on MeTV. And I watched it back in the late 60's when Tina Cole joined the show as Katie. It was great family TV, decent and wholesome. Shows you could watch with your kids.
Fred MacMurray is my all time favorite of the show. He never, lost his cool. He always said the right thing and he always looked like the model father. William Demarest second. And Tina Cole was my ideal crush in those days. I was completely head over heals in love with her. I was about five years old.😄
Born in 1951, "My Three Sons" ran from my childhood to being a young adult. I watched it often and loved the show. This was also the age of television, as it grew from the small, B&W sets to color TV. I still like TV today, having grown up with its emergence. Fred MacMurray was one of my favorite actors from that period and I liked all of the characters. Aside from Fred MacMurray, I liked "Chip" (Stanley Livingston) the best, probably because he was the closest to my age. I still recognize Barry ("Ernie") when he appears in shows today, such as Bosch. Thank you for sharing this; it was very interesting!
This is by far one of the very best done histories of a great family show of the past. The clips are clear, the audio is very excellent with no trouble of understanding. I give it "5 starts out of 5". Thanks and keep up the excellent work.
I have & will always love"Leave It To Beaver", but I have always loved, "My Three Sons" much more. This show does not get enough credit for having family values and the love the chareters had for one another. I love each and every episoide,from black & white to color. TV stations around the states should place this show on their channels. This show would help bring back true family values.
This was a good show. I loved that the dad was pretty honest with the boys most of the time.(only once did he hold something back from Robbie) my favorite son was Ernie. He was a cool little boy and a cool teenager.
My three sons was one of my favorite childhood TV shows. I loved the show. Yes I loved uncle Charlie best because I remember him the most. And of course the oldest brother was my heartthrob
I grew up watching the later years of the show. It stayed fine. The younger Uncle Charlie was my favorite - he was the only one I knew. The show is a classic.
Fred MacMurray's seminal role for Disney was "The Absent Minded Professor," where he invents a substance called "Flubber," that allows his car to fly. Perhaps his best known dramatic role is that of Lt. Tom Keefer, in "The Caine Mutiny."
I liked William Demarest the best. He was cranky, crusty, and yet charming at the same time. The show was well done and seemed to always have a moral or a teachable moment in the story line. I wish there were more shows like that today.
I liked uncle Charley too. He didn't take any guff from the boys, always cranky, etc, but he would have died for them. He felt it his job to make sure they were raised right. I thought it was funny when he would call one of them "Alice." My favorite characters were Ernie, Katie and Uncle Charley. I think Ernie had alot more personality than Chip.
@@su-rv2uq Did you ever see any of the older B&W episodes? They are by far my favorites. How about Chip's friend, 'Sudsy'? IMO, the scripts were better in the old days. They became increasingly far fetched as the series went on.
Yep, crusty, lovable Uncle Charley- BTW, the latter years of My Three Sons, when Steve and Barbara tied the knot and he adopted Dodie, we couldn't have conversations about that show without bringing up The Brady Bunch. BTW, we've compared notes on both Uncle Charley as the Douglas family's housekeeper and Alice Nelson, the Brady's housekeeper- both were very similar characters on their respective programs!!!
Sweet! Thanks for making and sharing this! I loved this show when I was a little kid. My favorite actor was the dad, Fred McMurray. I remember seeing him in other productions too. My goodness! It's hard to believe that was so many years ago! Thanks Do you remember, great vid! 👍👍😊
It was the longest time until I realized that there were 5 seasons in b/w prior. I thought season 6 was it's first season. The b/w seasons, BY FAR, are the best. I thought it declined after that. Mike and Bub very quickly became my favorites. Tina Cole was the highlight of seasons 6 - 12. The show might have hung on a little too long. Great show overall.
Bub was my favorite character also. William Frawley had personal issues that affected his health and insurability. He and William Demerest had a well established dislike for each other long before Uncle Charlie replaced Bub in the storyline. The stories were best when Chip was the youngest. What ever happened to Chip's Bestie 'Sudsy'? Ermie began as a recurring creepy kid from the neighborhood
@@johnsieff2921 I absolutely agree! William Frawley was a scream as Bub. He had such a fun, sarcastic interaction with the boys. Calling other old women gargoyles was so funny. William Demorest as Uncle Charley actually seemed mean and too crusty. Just not very funny. Tim Considine as Mike instantly became my favorite brother. The storylines of him being the oldest is much better than Robbie's. The Mike, Robbie, Chip dynamic was far superior. I thought Ernie was a bit annoying and out of place. The show really went down hill when Steve got married. Dodie was a bit tough to watch. I stop watching the show when season 6, episode 2 begins.
I loved that show! I remember Fred from the Disney movies. I heard he was one of the wealthiest actors in his time! I liked liked William Demarest . Perfect role for him. Time is going by so fast!!
@@peoplehavetherights I'm not making it up!. I don't know what he owned as far as actual acreage was, but back in the '30s land was dirt cheap up there and he invested heavily.
I heard at the time of this show Fred MacMurray was the most powerful influence in Hollywood. In those days, there was a standard that you had to meet. What was interesting is that he was a widowed father who work at home for the aerospace industry. Very much ahead of his time. But that is what you would expect from the guy whom invented Flubber.
@@kerplunkety The fossils?? The addition of Barbara and Dodie was the final nail in the coffin. Like "Happy Days" and "MASH", this was a fantastic show that lost it's original comedy edge and ran on too long.
@@dashriprock3468 I get you😃. People don't want to kill the cash cow, so show often overstay. Also, series ran 1960-1972, a period of seismic social change. It had to adapt
I liked this show a lot as as a kid. I think it was on Sunday evenings before Ed Sullivan. My favorite was Ernie. He was the funniest of the kids and closest to my own age!
I enjoyed everything about this show. Each actor played their parts realistically. I can't say which I like the best. Each have special qualities innate to their personalities. Robbie [Don Grady] was the most handsome. He died too soon.
I watched this show along with all the other family shows. I had such a crush on Tim Considine from the Mickey Mouse series, Spin & Marty! I even wrote and sent him a fan letter! I was happy see him on my 3 Sons and enjoyed the family dynamics between them,
One of my favorite sitcom classics of all time! I still watch it daily on ME-TV! Actually, I tape the episodes on my DVR. The first 5 seasons were the best! However, the move to California and bringing on Tina Cole in season 8 gave the show a refreshing new breath of life. Also, Beverly Garland as Barbara in season 10 was another excellent season and Fred and Beverly had such great chemistry together. I was not a fan of Dody though. Season 11, really was the final season for me. I loved the last episode of season 11 which serves as a pilot for Robbie and Katie moving to San Francisco. With Mike Minor from Petticoat Junction returning to My Three Sons proposed spinoff (he was a regular guest star in seasons 4 & 5 as a fraternity brother of Mike’s), I think the Robbie/Katie spinoff could have been a great success. Season 12 should never have aired. It was exhausting to watch and just not funny anymore. My favorites were Steve, Robbie, Mike, Sallie, Bub, Charley, Barbara, Katie and Chip. Robbie, was a pure natural talent on the show and just exuded so much passion in his character. I was so sad when he passed away at such a young age of only 68.
I never liked Polly much either. Dodi was simply little kid who could not act whom they only wanted to look cute. In my mind, Polly was the only one that did not fit. Marrying Chip off at barely 18 in a whirlwind college romance was a stupid ploy to increase ratings as Don Grady had pretty much left the show in season 12. It seemed to me they needed to move Chip out of the house and on campus so Katie and the triplets could move in, so they married Chip off. Don definitely missed more than one episode, BTW, as for quite a few episodes of the last season Robbie was away in South America on a work project. Also, Polly was NOT Chip's high school sweetheart. she showed up in the last season and they eloped after a whirlwind romance of the first 2 episodes of season 12.
I was a little girl when My Three Sons was in its Heyday. I adored the show. The little girl that became Mr. Douglas’s stepdaughter was great. Her character was named Doitie, no idea how it was spelled.I think her doll she played with on the show was a big seller one Christmas. Was it Mrs Beasley? I swear that was the dolls name but I may be thinking of Family Affair. Thanks for the video!
Loved the show. We had three boys in our family too. Plus two girls. Chip and Ernie were my favorites although I loved them all. I didnt really care for the marriage to Barbara and her daughter Dody. Just didnt fit.
Loved Robbie younger but once I saw the original epis Chip stole my heart. He was super adorable. And a great child actor. Resll all those young boys were
I'm pretty sure that Jodie Foster was in some of the later shows. She was not a star yet. She was just a little girl at the time. She was actually on six episodes between 1971 and 1972, according to Google.
Actually, "Mike" was mentioned several times after he left the show (by the way, I didn't know that Tim Considine had died earlier this year--so saddened to hear that). I don't know when the last reference to Mike was made but I believe it might have been as late as 1969 or 1970, at least 4 years after Considine's departure from the show. Also, though Robbie's wife Katie and the triplets were in the show's final season, Robbie himself was not--he was said to be working in South America. [James B. Smith]
I loved My Three Sons -- watched it all the time. Robbie was my favorite and so was Bub. It started to go downhill when Tina Cole and Beverly Garland - - along with all the new characters joined the cast
You are right and she was a lot like him but softened his rough edges. I couldn’t stand her kid Doddie or whatever her name was, she was irritating and ugly…she didn’t fit in with the big crew in the end. My favorite was Robbie.
My favorite on my three sons was Robbie because I was a middle child and I knew how he felt. I love the program we never missed an episode being a baby boomer it was a good wholesome show nothing like the junk they have on TV today how nice it would be if they would bring that back. But sadly I think those days of family wholesome TV shows have long gone. But at least it’s something in our memories. And I did like uncle Charlie better Bub always acted like he was in a bad mood.
No question about it, the 1970's became Tina Cole's decade, after My Three Sons- she's appeared in numerous TV shows, afterwards. In 2018, she mourned the passing of Penny Marshall, when she passed away. No, Tina didn't appear on Laverne & Shirley, but was a fan of the show!!!
If you've ever seen the My Three Sons-Partridge Family Reunion show, there is a prerecorded clip of William Demarest. Intersetingly, Demarest spoke of Frawley as a good friend. Maybe he was just being diplomatic.
@@shauntrailskinner9645 Hubba Hubba is right, what a babe and most like to be the gay son in the show. If they do it over, realistically - make someone gay or a lesbo. BTW, always thought the older girl in Eight is Enough with the lower voice was gay.
![PORKY'S (1981) Cast: Then and Now [40 Years After]](/img/n.gif)
Don Grady and Tim Considine my favorites. Loved all the episodes. I was of the right age at the right time. 12:08

What a trip down memory lane! Our whole family would watch this show together.

I loved this show! Life was so different back then.
Loved every season, but when Mike was there it was truly special
My Three Sons was one of my favorite shows They was a orderale family back then It was down to earth show
I miss all of these old shows
Great family show.Wholesome comedy!
Love the show, I watch it every morning on METV!

He didn't work at home. He had projects that required working at home after hours but he went to the "plant" every day.
Great video that brings back memories

Yes, it was in Canada. Actually, both the original show and its reruns, which are currently airing.
I remember Katie Douglas singing Petula Clark's song Downtown.
I liked him in the "egg and I"
We watched the show the entire time it was on the air.
Just hearing that theme music brings back so much.
I loved them all, it I did especially like chip and Robbie. I really loved that show!
This show is on my list of series to view. I finished Leave It To Beaver and now viewing Hazel and Barney Miller.
You’ll love it
Loved that show especially once Katie came on

Bub was my favorite. He seemed more loveable with his grandsons, especially Chip.
Yeah he was a genuine crab-ass, Demarest seemed to beatch’ too much.
Watched this back in the day, it was great show. Some people were on The Mickey Mouse Show, Tim Constantine was the oldest son.
Cool family
Too funny. I always thought Ermie did look like Chip.only to find out, they are real life brothers!! Watching it now in Metv.
Tina Cole was on some of the b/w shows, playing different characters. Usually a friend of Robbie.
Terrible how you take a cheap shot by showing a non flattering photo of the actress years later
It is kind of despicable.
Which actress?
I'm pretty sure that Jodie Foster was in some of the later shows. She was not a star yet. She was just a little girl at the time. She was actually on six episodes between 1971 and 1972, according to Google.

She was also on “ The Courtship of Eddie’s Father” as Eddie’s friend.
