In 1971 when I was 10, we were up at our cabin in Lake Arrowhead, CA. We were at a little beach area in the village and Sally Field walked right by my friend and I. I had no idea what her name was so I yelled out “Sister Bertrille!!” She was so sweet and turned around with a big smile and waved to us. We were soooo excited to see the “Flying Nun!” 😊
@Weareheavenbound That was lovely of her, considering that she felt the whole exercise of 'The Flying Nun' was, by and large, a monumental waste of time. It goes to show that she was a sweet girl who liked her fans.
"THEY" want ewes fighting ewes. Reds vs Blues, us vs us. 50/50 = 1. Hegelian Dialectic: Thesis vs Antithesis = Synthesis. That being said, Sally Fields was so young and adorable -- no wonder America fell in love with her.
I enjoy looking back at the cooky TV shows of the 60's. Some episodes were rarely aired but you can see them here on YT. I'm glad I found this one. It was fun to watch.
innocent times, at least on tv. i turned 9 in 1967 and though i don't remember much of this show i did watch it back then on our family black and white tv with only ONE channel serving the whole country ( NZ) i did notice the homage to the sound of music in the opening with her and the children. thanks for this
What a sweet delightful and innocent show. I thank the Lord that, after almost 60 years, my heart has not hardened to the gentleness of this classic. The 60s had its problem but we still retained decency in our public broadcasts and Christian values were upheld. God bless.
WE still retained decency in our public broadcast back then but the clues that things were going down hill are in this program. The stuff about progress is one of those clues.
I loved the flying nun. My mother died when I was 6 years old, when I went to sleep I would dream of being able to fly escaping my pain just like sister Bertrille.
Wow! This brought back so many happy childhood memories of sitting in front of the television with my brother and sisters. We loved this show! I was 7 years old. 🥲💖 ... I'm not crying! ... *You're* crying! 😭
Such a cute show... with heart. I love that the humor didn't come from non-stop canned jokes.. but from characters, just being themselves. What a great time in TV history.
@@lindabratsch9091 Life was simple. Most people only worked Monday to Friday during daylight hours. No 24-hour shopping. Sunday was a day of rest and peace, the shops were closed except for restaurants, theatres etc. The Vietnam War caused many problems that still exist today.
When I was growing up, I remember people making fun of this series. Rewatching it now, I find it wholesome and charming. And Sally Field despite her family's prediction became a great actress.
In the 70’s we were blessed with reruns of this show, I Dream of Jeannie, Hogan’s Heroes, Bewitched, I Love Lucy, Lost in Space, Batman, and a few others.
The fifth episode of the first season is the mist touching of the entire series. Sister Bertril gets transferred to The Holy City but suddenly there is an overwhelming demonstration of support for her staying
In elementary school, because of this show and the 1960s Superman series, I believed it was possible to fly if I did it just right. I dreamed about flying to school, flying across fields. The Singing Nun was a wonderful movie.
It makes me sad to watch anything with Sally cause she has always reminded me so much of my mom who passed 3 urs ago and she always talked about these movies but I had never wzt he'd any of them til now and I'm so glad I did 😊😊
I used to watch this when I was still 4 yrs. Old. I was humorously educated and saw the world positively. Thanks God and to all the tv shows on these 60, 70, 80 and 90's tv shows and sitcoms.😅😂❤😊🎉
Great series with my favorite actress Sally field she was so sweet n lovable back then playing a humorous nun funny stuff!!! 😁 was really great 👍 👌 thanks for sharing this ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Fun to see this again. I can't count how many times I have told a young person about how Sally rescued her career from this show. Don't get me wrong. It was a great show. But damn, she pretty much had to do Smokie to expand her career. And boy did she. Such a wonderful actor. I think Steel Magnolias was her best.
@@wdgbirmingham2The nun in the driver's seat of the car that wouldn't work at the beginning of the show when they were going to the dock to pick up Sally Field.
@@dinarusso3320 What a ridiculous show. I've yet to find anything that Sally Field could act in. Except Steel Magnolias....she needed age and maturity
@@jacqueline8559 pfft. This was far more imaginative than ANYTHING Post Millenials have CREATED. Oh, snap! Post Millenials can't create anything new; just recycle ridiculous Comic Books, or obiliterate cough reimagine classic literature.
I always loved that show! Entertaining, interesting & innocent. This reminded me of a much loved movie, "The Sound of music"🏞🥰 The singing, kids and nuns ect...💚💙🩵💖
Vintage TV was and still is the best. This show was kinda corning but magic and something I wish wud come back. OMG - Sally Fields (with an S) was at her best.
Poor Sally Field really didn’t want to do this series. Her Stepfather Jock basically said to her -if you don’t do this, you will never work again “ from “In pieces’ by Sally field
So funny to see this after so many years. Levitating saints are not unknown LOL, but I could never understand how she kept the Cornette from coming off. 😁
I did too our nuns had the black habits I caused a lot of trouble but those nuns were merciful to me They were Jesus nuns I appreciate the time I went to St Cyril’s in Tucson Arizona At least they set a Christian foundation.
One of her sons is a screen writer who wrote The Town with Ben Affleck. I thought it was interesting the disguises used in the bank job ere nuns (his mama’s first major role).
Well it's no My Mother the Car...thank God. This was a fun little happy show airing at a time when everyone seemed so angry about everything. Maybe we could use a little of that right now.
I always found it interesting how nuns never allowed their hair to show outside their wimple, but Sr. Bertrille sported her Gidget bangs throughout the series.

😊@@andrewthornhill7042
I wanted to become a nun because of this show! I am now a Childrens church teacher! God is wonderful!!!
That was the purpose of "Gidget/The Flying Nun"
It would have been nice if you could have flown also.
お疲れ様です！
This sure did bring back a lot of childhood memories. I loved this program. ❤
Yes, it was a favorite! I went to Catholic school, so it might have been part of our homework to enjoy this show?! Lol
I needed a good dose of nostalgia today, and this fit the bill. Sister Bertrille was one of my first heroes.
Me too
Wholesome television from my youth.
I knew of this show but never watched it. It's really cute. ❤
She’s just one of those wonderful people you can never get enough of.
I wish they would have good clean shows like this again

Melhor época ! Quem viveu nesta época sabe! Muito mágico! Quero ver todos os episódios! Obrigada!
I miss comedies like this. Clean, family humor.
I loved the flying nun. My mother died when I was 6 years old, when I went to sleep I would dream of being able to fly escaping my pain just like sister Bertrille.
Your mother died young 😢 its heartbreaking
@@manomenon1 yes it was very heartbreaking, mum was 26 years old leaving behind 3 young children. 💙🩷💜
Im so sorry 😢
@@MareeK4346❤❤❤
Oh how I miss these light-hearted, entertaining, and somewhat naive TV series. These days it's all thrown at you.
Rewatching this show after 57 years, I realize the funniest scenes are with Sister Bertrille and Carlos. He is really a good comedic actor.
Wow! This brought back so many happy childhood memories of sitting in front of the television with my brother and sisters. We loved this show! I was 7 years old. 🥲💖 ... I'm not crying! ... *You're* crying! 😭
I get it!❤😢
❤
Such a cute show... with heart. I love that the humor didn't come from non-stop canned jokes.. but from characters, just being themselves. What a great time in TV history.
A tyypical riduculous show of the 1960s. I love it.
Sally Field almost puked when she read the script. She hated the idea.
100th like and proud of it.
I wish Sally could know how sweet and adorable she is in this.
I wish things could be so simple again. I would gladly go back to that happy time!
I think that’s because we were kids when this came out and we didn’t understand the complexities of real life…lol!

Don't you just love the big Band Orchestra introduction music and what a theme it was.
Beautiful music 🎶! I love orchestras ❤
Yes when music was beautiful
@@MichelleBerrytingley That's right!
I thought the memory of this show had flown away with the winds of time (corny I know). Thank you for bringing them back.

I loved Lost in Space!
@@janesangster5195 The robot and Dr. Smith were hilarious.

Flying Nun and Gidget was 2 hit shows for Sally Field.
Yes, they were. Which came first?
@@joecausey8508😂 Did google stop working?? 😂😂
@@joecausey8508Gidget was aired first before The flying nun.
@@yvonneplant9434 LOL yep. 🤣🤣
@@maxinewarnest894 Thank you. She sure did look young.
The fabulous 60’s!! We had Peace Love….& The Flying Nun!! Poor little Sally Field! (She ended up a Legend Anyway)!!✌️
Reminds me of the sound of music, Maria and the children.
More like Mary Poppins.
Most people don't know that The Sound of Music was a true story. The Flying Nun had no truth, just charm.
@@mercy2084Most people who know the Sound of Music do indeed know it’s based on a true story.
It makes me sad to watch anything with Sally cause she has always reminded me so much of my mom who passed 3 urs ago and she always talked about these movies but I had never wzt he'd any of them til now and I'm so glad I did 😊😊

This light the spirit of this trouble world. May God open our eyes and ears to love of purity
I really loved this show..
We loved Sally Field
This brings back lots of childhood memories.
Sigh. In the current political environment in the US right now I had totally forgotten what a christian looked like. This is nice.
OMG i just realized that's Rosario from Will and Grace.....
Who is?
@@wdgbirmingham2The nun in the driver's seat of the car that wouldn't work at the beginning of the show when they were going to the dock to pick up Sally Field.
The dimples gave it away for me :)
@@KC-kb6mg Omg! 😳 That IS Rosario!!!
Well spotted!
Oh my goodness ,memories overload .I love this.
The vivid contrast between the worldly and the holy!
I probably liked this more now than I did then. Nothing like this in entertainment now, eh? Beautiful.
Sally field has and will always have a very unique beauty...simply amazing
And to think that this became a hit show!!😊
I don't know how, I've seen some very good TV shows from back in the day and this wasn't one of them
@@dinarusso3320 What a ridiculous show. I've yet to find anything that Sally Field could act in. Except Steel Magnolias....she needed age and maturity

The singing, kids and nuns ect...💚💙🩵💖
Sally Field is Awesome!
Felicidad is the happiest word…..happiest word that you have ever heard….
Thank you! I was trying to figure out what they were singing, and now I know.
It literally means happiness! 😂
Me too!! @@ChrisJohnston-z7u
6-8 years old when I watched this.
Me too. I'd race home for all of my favourite shows. 'Flying Nun' was special.
I was that age when it first aired
I was 5 when it started. It was a favorite
Great memories! Thank you, Sally! Love you!
"You swam all the way?!" Lol
When innocence was in vogue.
Vintage TV was and still is the best. This show was kinda corning but magic and something I wish wud come back. OMG - Sally Fields (with an S) was at her best.
Says Field singular in the opening credits
@@sallywrite That is exactly my point. Sally Fields has been changed to Field which is a ME.
Loved this series when I was a child❤❤❤
Loved the show and it still comes to life with the wonderful color technology they used. (Not sure if it's actually Technicolor.)
❤Love these Sally Feilds Episodes 👍Grow up watching these all the Time 🤩👍🤞👌✌️🌅🇺🇲💫🙌🙏🌟✨😅
Poor Sally Field really didn’t want to do this series. Her Stepfather Jock basically said to her -if you don’t do this, you will never work again “ from “In pieces’ by Sally field
I liked it
Flying Nun was a hit, everyone loved watching... Sally Field didn't want to do the show at first, it became a hit because Sally is a great actress
Did she say why she didnt want to do the show?
In interviews sally did not want to do sitcoms .. she wanted to be a serious actress in movies .
Dad was right! 🙂
Sally Field definitely has come a long way since this show and Giget!!
These shows were better than anything today for sure
A long way in terms of becoming a full fledged movie star.
But her talent was evident from the beginning.
50s to 70s sitcoms, serials are everlasting.
Why are their ears so big? 😆
Oh! Its Sally fields! Cool, i love her acting! ❤
How can she still be so beautiful!
I remember watching this with my brother and two sisters. Loved it.
😮from about the 30:29 minutes mark: the submarine captain is an almost unrecognizable Dabney Coleman!! Without a mustache, and so young...
This was a Great and Entertaining show. Also a Wonderful acting stint to have on your record for anyone. !!!
The Show, The actor's were perfect I get a Happiness to the day when I watch it.
I have watched this many many years ago. It had also been broadcasted in Hong Kong too.
So funny to see this after so many years. Levitating saints are not unknown LOL, but I could never understand how she kept the Cornette from coming off. 😁
These were good times, just fun shows, Sally played that extremely well
Nuns are really creative with their "hats"...👀
Some of these Episodes i missed ! Now i can catch up! 😃🤩❤️🙌🙏💫🇺🇲🌅😅✨🌟🌻
Wonderful and unforgetble!
I went to a Catholic School and I never saw any flying Nuns!!! Only flying paddles to the seat of your pants!!!!
Amen...same here!
The 'amazing nuns and priests ' of the Catholic Church 😢😢
Same here! lol There were nice ones but there were mean ones that should have never taught children
I'm sure none of you turned out any the worse for it. Why do you think God gave us buttocks? BTW We got spanked in the Public Schools too.
I did too our nuns had the black habits I caused a lot of trouble but those nuns were merciful to me They were Jesus nuns I appreciate the time I went to St Cyril’s in Tucson Arizona At least they set a Christian foundation.
I’m amazed at the quality of the CGi on this episode…
I love this show , its one of my absolute favorites ! 😊
I loved this growing up!
She was so cute. ❤️❤️❤️
I was going to be a nun, but I was a troublemaker, so they wouldn't allow me. 😂
2-3 am I'm watching this 😂Who'd a thought!? Flows and enjoyable without negative stuff
So silly, but so much fun! 😂
Carlos Ramirez, a bad boy to love ❤️
I can see this show, this version, making a big comeback on Me TV or somewhere. She’s so charming, interesting scenery and cute plots, with morals.
I'm so sorry she was forced into the role, but I can't be sorry it was available for my family to watch.
St. Joseph Cupertino, the flying saint
My mom loved this show. I wish she could have been able to see it again.
Love this show. Thank you!
This is an absolute wonderful show!! I remember watching this show when I was a small child. Thank you for sharing.
One of her sons is a screen writer who wrote The Town with Ben Affleck. I thought it was interesting the disguises used in the bank job ere nuns (his mama’s first major role).
You are why I love UA-cam commenters 👍
That convent seems to have plenty of open space. I don't get why they can't just build a small school on their own land. But still a cute show 😂
Thank you thank you thank you for this lovely memory of my childhood!!!!
"next girl I ask will be protestant"... LOL.. Sister Bertrille really frustrated Senor Ramirez.. used to watch this when it was on.
Ramirez. " I know when I'm beat ". 😂😂😂😂
"I like to hedge my bets."
Well it's no My Mother the Car...thank God. This was a fun little happy show airing at a time when everyone seemed so angry about everything. Maybe we could use a little of that right now.
Still loving it ❤
I was in my teens when this show aired. Loved it!😊
Those were the good old family wholesome shows 👋👋👍👍👍
I’m glad she did. It brings charm in a world of filth.
She did good, outstandingly good.
I always loved the theme music!
I always found it interesting how nuns never allowed their hair to show outside their wimple, but Sr. Bertrille sported her Gidget bangs throughout the series.

One of the many tv shows sponsored by vested interests, Lawyers, doctor's, the churches etc 😮😮 always the clean good guys

I've always wondered how she actually flys
