Clearly, you missed one of the main psychological points about Phyllis and one of the main humor points of this show: Bess was really the mother and Phyllis the daughter. Stop blaming the culture of the past for your unhappiness in the present. You never 'respected your elders'. Look at Lizzie Borden. She lived in the 'good old days', when people had 'morals and values', right? No, actually, people in the past were murderers and parricides, too.
@@moviemonster2083 You just called me a hypocrite. This is what I'm talking about. There's no common decency anymore. No general respect for others. Go bother someone else with your outlandish remarks.
This was the generation when parents were trying to be friends, and not parents. It majorly backfired. The mother daughter relationship here is social commentary.
"If she had any more stars, you'd have to pledge allegiance to her!"
Gawwwd, I kinda miss this point in time!!
A magical, mystical time called the 1970's. ☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️
Terry Kiser from Weekend at Bernie's Fame.
Bess starts calling Phyllis mom now?
I was wondering too....
It happens in the episode where Bess, moves out.
Never liked Phyllis with that short hair style.
This episode shows the first stages the American society's promotion of a lack of respect for one's elders. How Bess talks to Phyllis is abhorrent.
