Wow! I saw this when it aired back in 1979 or 1980!! I NEVER forgot it and I'm so glad to see it again. The tv show was called DOROTHY and it aired only four episodes as a summer replacement. My grandmother had taken me to see Annie when I was ten and I fell in love with Dorothy (a theater queen at 10!) so this was a pretty big deal. Thanks SO much for uploading this.
Is this the lady who was Dorothy's old schoolgirl friend on golden girls???? The episode where her friend came to visit, they used to prank each other and compete against everythimg
Nothing against Dorothy Loudon, but look at Irene Tedrow, who I remember as a terrific character actress. I don't know that I ever saw her sing and dance before seeing this clip.
Even the set looks the Facts of Life. It was just too much like the Facts of Life. Perhaps if it been set in a different setting or profession. You can’t deny Dorothy had talent. The premise was just way weak.
Dorothy Loudon's career was always in the shadow of Carol Burnett. Carol does a better job of Hard Hearted Hannah, bur Dorothy was better as Miss Hannigan.
I remember this from way back in the day and loved it. I had no idea who Dorothy Loudon was until this show aired. Became a fan.

She was absolutely wonderful 🎉
This woman is wonderful!!! I wept with laughter, both my wife and I
loving this performance, so full-blooded and free!! WOW!!!
A great comedic performance from Dorothy Loudon! Sitcoms these days need to emulate this formula.
This show only lasted 4 weeks.
Absolutely love this scene!
Linda Manz is so cute.
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!
Dottie could belt they say.
Ha! So true!
beautiful linda manz, joe from facts of life ripped her off hard
Is it customary in the theater for a duet to perform with their backs to their entire audience?
What show was this? Dorothy was out of control. Fantastic.
So sad this never became a hit.

No.
Does anyone know what TV show this was from?

Who is 'Jack"? He looks so familiar ...

People said Dorothy didn't like working with kids (though these actresses were young adults) and was not a friendly person to work with.
Looks like webster.

So many attempts at "The Facts of Life."
