    Before there was The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Eve Arden was a female force to be reckoned with on television playing the sardonic and witty school teacher Miss Connie Brooks in the sitcom Our Miss Brooks.
    The beloved classic series got its start as a radio show in 1948 that ran until 1957. In 1952, the series was adapted for television. In 1956, the television incarnation of the series was adapted for the big screen in a full-length feature film that essentially wrapped up the show's saga.
    What really made Our Miss Brooks such a success was its incredible cast of characters supported by a winning team of actors and actresses.
    Eve Arden was clearly the standout star of the show, but Gale Gordon, who played the domineering, crooked, and uncongenial principal Osgood Conklin was also an incredibly gifted actor who served as the perfect comic foil for Miss Brook's crafty ways.
    Robert Rockwell played the shy and utterly clueless object of Miss Brooks' affection, Madison High School biology teacher Phillip Boynton. Richard Crenna played the clumsy yet well-intentioned student Walter Denton and Jane Morgan played Miss Brooks' absentminded landlord Margaret Davis. Other stars who appeared on the series included Jane Morgan, Gloria McMillan, and Mary Jane Croft.
    In this video, we'll be taking a few minutes to pay our respects to the show's cast members who have all since passed away.

      Kind of a left-handed compliment, I suppose. i never cared much for Lucille Ball and her shows, but loved Eve Arden and her inimitable voice, character attitude, class, and her great line-delivery and comic timing. A real favorite. But, to each his own, correct? It's all very personal what affects our proverbial "funny bones".

      I could really identify more with Eve Arden than Lucille Ball. Ms. Arden did a lot more with her acting style and delivery of her lines. She was great in the movie Mildred Pearce.

    Even though I was very young, Eve Arden was my TV sweetheart. Her dialog delivery was suburb and unique. Coming in a close second was good old "Osgood Conclin". His attitudes and dialog delivery were extremely memorable. You go with what you remember.
    I would prefer this show over "I Love Lucy" ANY day.

    Eve Arden also did a brief stint on Bewitched as a wisecracking nurse during the birth of Tabitha in the hospital! In the 70s she also did commercials for Platex Living Bras with the distinct comment ".. honestly, it's your bra..!" to a female customer that was trying to figure out a problem with her dress! Haha!

    My father loved to drive. That's how he, my mother and I spent Sunday afternoons. We listened to the radio as we cruised along, and that is how I knew Our Miss Brooks. I never watched tv and listened to the radio. Our Miss Brooks played on the radio Sunday afternoons, and I knew the voices and names of Eve Arden and Gale Gordon. It seems to me it was sponsored by L.S.M.F.T. (Lucky Strike Means Fine Tobacco). Memory is a strange device; I remember the ditty for HALO Shampoo, sponsoring MR. & Mrs. North the ALKA SELTZER ditty. and others. I was a WWII baby and I grew up during the 1940s-1950s-1960s and the radio was my main entertainment along with the movies.

    I remember the series quite well. I was in upper elementary school and was able to see the program as it aired each Friday evening. Richard Crenna as student Walter Denton would come to pick up teacher Miss Brooks where she boarded at Mrs. Davis' place in return for breakfast, served by Mrs. Davis. The implication was that Miss Brooks compensated Mrs. Davis for the food consumed by Walter. He would then drive her to work in what seemed to be a pick-up truck (though it may not have been). The show would often include conversation in his car or truck.
    Robert Rockwell as the biology teacher Phillip Boynton did not seem at all awkward, but, rather, indifferent to amorous intentions of Miss Brooks who, in the series, was eager to marry, with her eye on Mr. Boynton. He went on to play an insurance-claim investigator for a nineteenth-century company called Blackhawk, in a program called Man from Blackhawk

    Very nice, except that you missed one important cast member. Jeff Chandler was the original Mr. Boynton on the radio show, and was much better in the role than Robert Rockwell. Unfortunately, his movie studio contract didn't permit him to do television, so he was forced to leave the role when Our Miss Brooks transitioned to television.
