Oh god, unfortunate many people today are not aware of or do not appreciated the cutting edge attitude of such artistic comedy writing, thank you Norman Lear
I totally agree! I used to watch it with my mom, when I was in high school. She would let me stay up on a school night! My mother and I loved it!
There’s not cutting edge about this show. There’s also nothing comedic about this show.
@@GodfatherAl102892 if you weren’t of TV viewing age when the show came out then maybe you wouldn’t get what I mean. There had been nothing else like it on TV before, at least not in America.
norman lear didn't write this show.
@@GodfatherAl102892 you clearly never heard davey's reasoning behind killing the lombardies and their goats and chickens. this shows comedy is brilliant.
I remember when I was a kid and whenever this show or soap was on, it was time for me to go to bed.
Brian Olson Haha... Yes, me too!!
It sure was.
Ha, yep that was my cue
Me too.
I was able to stay up a few times and watch this and cell block h. As kid I was like wtf is this? I didn't get it all!.. but block h was great though.
This show freaked me out when I was 14. It was so strange and wondered why so many people watched it. That siren... WTH. It’s like a messed up Twilight Zone and your stuck in it with them.
This show used to creep me out when I was a kid in the 1970s I mean I wasn't scared or anything was just creepy
Yeah, I was 8 and this was “one of those shows you’re not allowed to watch”. I remember it being on late at night when I was a teen during the 80’s and thought “What the hell is this freak show?”
It WAS freaky is right, the weird camera angles and all!!!
Yep.
Same age and same reaction......I was really freaked out....!
I watched this show as a kid and it may explain my sense of humor.
I haven't thought about this show in decades. 70's, thick carpeting, avocado refrigerators, grand ams, late night am sick fi radio programs, good times.
Mary Hartman was iconic, and funny in an indescribable way. Some get it, and some don't. I think it appealed to the off- beat types, like myself. It's just poking fun at life, really.
And satirizing prior tv soap operas, from the 1950s mostly treating domestic issues of upper middle class homemakers.
@@JudgeJulieLit waxy buildup and such a deadpan delivery by all cast made this a wonderful lear production
Freaking loved this!! Most people don’t know about it 😊🎉❤
She was married to Woody Allen for 4 yrs. Makes sense.
Valium makes the time just fly by.
Mary Hartman acts like she's taken a couple of Quaaludes.
😂😂
So true
Prolly 😂
It’s coke. Watch her closely. You’ll see.
@@prettypinkroses I can't differentiate, but was definitely SOMETHING. The 70's were wildin.
Debralee's green nail polish really works for me. Those nails just look cool.
How high were they when they made this?
Yes.
show was on when I was in my early 20s . weirdest show ever even for today. addictive.
Boy do I remember the 70s. Thank you King Lear 😁😁
This show I never got as a 9 year old kid! Now I got it! Lol awesome job!
Northern Exposure is also funny
Same here. It was spooky and surreal and now we see that was intentionally done. 🤣
This is the funniest show on tv then and now!
This scene is trippy as hell especially knowing that Debralee Scott is R.I.P.
I was a teenager when this show was prime time and it creeped me out back then, but it was so dry funny without a studio audience or laugh track that I watched anyway. They managed to sneak some really raunchy shit into this show if you read between the lines. Fun times.
Brought here after having just watched an old Taxi re-run with Louise Lasser guest starring as Alex's ex-wife, where she emotionally blackmails him into dragging her along to a company Christmas party.
She pretty much owned the scenes she was in, and while I may have been imagining it, Andy Kaufmann appeared to be in absolute awe of her.
Martin Mull was in this show sometime after it started. He just passed away. 😢❤
Idk why but I had a thing for Mary as a teenager 😍
Same
Oh yes.
I loved this show when I was in college!
The Carol Burnett skit of this was hilarious. It was on UA-cam but has been removed, otherwise I'd post the link
MMAFighter38 It is back on now. Carol as Mary H.
Here it is ua-cam.com/video/d5SKCHRZDos/v-deo.html
The gay bar in my town used to have Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman on one of its TV's every week. Everyone would stop dancing and gather around to watch. I'm still not sure why it appealed to us so much...but it did.
This scene creeps me out. Puts me on edge and makes me sad somehow. I need to see more!
That's exactly what adult satire is supposed to do. Mission accomplished!
I loved this show its amazing..
So great Mary's delayed reaction was the best.
I absolutely loved this show! I’m 52 and would stay up watching this because it came on at 10:00 and it was my secret obsession ❤
This show was a great bonding experience with my mother when I was a teenager. We would laugh our heads off together. My brother and father were just all WTF?
Me too, except my parents were divorced and I would visit my mom on Friday nights, she'd come home from work at 11pm and we watched it, just the two of us, on her little Sony black and white television 📺.
I watched this show as a kid, but didn't really understand what the heck was going on.
I still watched it thou!
The quintessential moment of the entire show for me. Be sure to have a conversation with your older sister about the quality of a household cleaning product before you delve into her marital difficulties. Great satire.
I've only seen this and "I have an STD??" I would think the latter would be the benchmark . . .
Love this show, very nostalgic
I loved this show back then .. it was so dramatic
Best part was when she would climb under the kitchen cabinet
Carol Burnett did a skit about Mary😅😅
This used to weird me out when I was a kid.
Mary is creepy af.
Me too
I loved this show. My favorite live was, “You wanna do it” LMMFAO
Vintage '70s avocado-hued kitchen.
JudgeJulieLit - *Shudder*. 70’s flashbacks.............
LOL Yes! Either you had Avocado or you had Harvest Gold!
We had Harvest Gold kitchen canisters! But we had an Avocado electric can opener! Now I think of it, sickly Earth tones were the thing back then... yuck!
@@Aramanth Perhaps the avocado and/or Harvest Gold appliances, reflecting Mary Hartman's kitchen fluorescent lighting, made her linoleum floor just seem to have a "waxy yellow buildup."
I still have one melmac avocado plate. Cherish it! And an avocado plastic corncob holder that I use to untie knots.
My Mom had those coffee mugs!
@@timnewman1172 Viva la kitchen Kitsch !
I watch this every day.
I was addicted to this show back in the day. Marijuana infused comedy
Had to be stoned or dead drunk to get into this show back in the day...
I still love this cleverly written show buzzed.Norman Lear was magical
But for Louise Lasser's New York accent, her channeling a Midwest, Middle American WASP housewife (but with her braids and miniskirt, still rocking the Fleishman's white bread and Vermont Maple Syrup logo girls) of this era was spot on--with a bit of subtle exaggeration for satiric comic effect. Her Mary was as iconic a homemaker stultified in her cage as Lucille Ball's Lucy.
The show had a vaguely "Black Mirror" vibe didn't it.
no.
Yes, Debralee Scott.....so cute. Sad to die so young....
Oh, good. I wasn't the only one who thought the sister was attractive.
@@marksusskind1260 ....
She DIED??
WH. WHEN??
m.
@@mwatts-riley2688 2005. Her fiancé died on 9/11 and she she never got over it. Sad.
:-(
It was a satire but the problem for some of the audience was that there was no idiot laugh-track to tell them when to laugh.
Interesting observation. You generally rarely actually busted out laughing during this show (this was not Lucille Ball stand-up, sitcom) but instead chuckled to yourself after a stretch. It was that kind if "episode." Often leading seemingly nowhere - i.e., no punch lines; but something to rehash in your head, and might find it humorous.
"M*A*S*H" was brilliant without a laugh track. I wish I could watch "All In The Family" without one as well.
My mom taught me as a kid to hate laugh tracks. I notice now if I fall asleep to a tv show it’s adult cartoons because there is no annoying laugh track to jar you awake
@@janicecampbell4212
MASH did have a laugh-track. The DVD version let people turn it off, but at that point anyone who watched the original knew from long re-run experience instinctively where the funny lay.
@@janicecampbell4212 "All in the Family" was a live audience, not a laugh track. Fun fact: It was the first major US TV show to be filmed in front of a live studio audience.
used to watch the Friday night episodes as a kid .. encompassed the 70's chaos perfectly ... you just had to live through it
this show came on way too late for me to watch but i always wondered what the heck it was about
This scene reminds me of a Marie + Skylar scene from Breaking Bad... Debralee Scott even looks a bit like Betsy Brandt.
She really does. I was just noticing that
I'm almost positive she says " minion cans a week."
70's bizzarrooo. This show was odd.
Forty-five years later I am still clueless as to what this show was about and its appeal. Not knocking it, really; I just never got around to watching it.
This show was the best series ever made...imho
The pace is too fast. lol.. Love this. show. droll satire
Mary Fartman,Mary Fartman,was what I called it!😂
Just like someone had said Mary Hartman was the bomb of the times.
If anyone had meet a personality it was consider a judge of character for themselves.
Mary seems stoned
MMAFighter38 she was known to a major coke abuser behind the scenes.
Mother’s Little Helper.............
MMA- Ya think?
So were the regular viewers
What a great smile!
Lol probably the weirdest show Norman Lear ever came up with
I always used to appreciate how spacey she was during her TV shows.
Loved this surreal bizarre dark comedy back in '78. Apparently, a lot of commenters here don't get humor beyond straight jokes.
I always did like her hair the braids were cool I guess she had the right face for that style .
Funniest quirky show of all time.
Didn't know that Louise Lasser (Mary Hartman) was married to Woody Allen. That explains a lot.
I remember watching this as a 9 yr old thinking WTF by my father's expression he had the same thought😊
I KINDA REMBER THIS SHOW, WAS A KID. I REMEMBER NODDING TRYING TO WATCH THIS WITH MY MOM
lukecoco metoyer sr wrote the lyrics the theme song witness royal north
..."MH, MH!" might've developed something of a crazy cult following and still does to an extent, but it definitely was not one of Norman Lear's better storylines... Probably why it was the way it was and why it occupied the late night, after the news time slot...
"Waxy Yellow Build-Up!!"
Oh, and you're wearing "Pee-Pee Long Stalking" Halloween Costume, Mary Hartman!!
Why am I just learning about this show? 😮
I just saw her on the Mary Tyler Moore show as Mary’s banker.
Seriously? The same home set in Married with Children came from the Mary Hartman TV show?
Yeah it does kinda look like that.
Look at how the show was gutsy, cutting edge, not afraid of introducing controversial, even disturbing original material. Mary Hartman's complex personality, with its touches of paranoia and neurotic behavior, but capable of a great deal of caring love, made this show so different and fresh. But it figures. Shows like this so often don't have great appeal for the uneducated, unsophisticated masses, surreal, offbeat humor doesn't interest the average viewer unfortunately. Mary Hartman lasted how many seasons? One. Look at other original ideas of soap operas such as Twin Peaks...how long did it last? Two seasons. And yet other soap operas with such ordinary day-to-day affairs and lives of humans go on and on for years. Guiding Light, Days of Our Lives....etc. etc. ho, hum, yawn.
I was in High School when this came out. My parents thought it was weird but Monty Python's Flying Circus was also on TV at the time and they were getting used to different.
I am so glad we didn't have TV.
People all the MHMH episodes are up! Please support Jakyung Koo who posted them in November so he keeps them up long enough for me to watch them all!
I didn't know this show was a parody.
I didn't really know what a parody was.
Jack Mason brought me here!
What did I just bear witness to? I don't remember this person or how she was finally defeated. Nor by whom? The inner struggle with cleanliness must have been overwhelming. Perhaps a reaction to the chemicals she was using? One can only wonder......
Dody just passed away recently..sadly
When I watched it back then I just wanted to slap everybody! Act right dammit!!! Make sense!!! I could enjoy it better today... if I was intoxicated in some way.
En primer lugar, Louise Lassar era una mamacita. En Segundo lugar, que programa de television tan raro.
I never missed an episode and my husband and kids just didn't get it.
Don’t even bother people. Bunch of click bait for ALL of these “full episodes” channels.
Putlockerz has 1 ep of S1 & 194 eps of S2..... Weird....
Fan theory:
She had a form Aspergers and didn't know it, or DID she?!
lol.
Changed nightime television
I remember watching this show as a 6 year old and not understanding they were actors but an actual family.. In my mind I thought this was one creepy family out there somewhere. Mary Hartman gave me the creeps.. An hearing her name being called freaked me out when I heard it coming from the television but still I needed to see what was going on..
Mary, Mary.....you smokie too much!
I used to get stoned & watch this as a teenager. After seeing this, I wonder why? Maybe because we only had 3 TV stations back then.
She looks like Toni Collette! hahaha
Wasn't the other actress a regular on Welcome Back Kotter?
Loved watching it stoned
The ironical thing is that today, 45 years later, about 90% of the people I converse with are essentially Mary Hartmans. The only thing missing is the floor wax and an actual female even concerned with it.
I miss all the smoking on TV....
Haha, me too, I miss smoking….
Brilliant
Mary Hartman was a stoner.
Everyone knew this, right???
No, she was more of a ('70s film reference) "Stepford" wife, sheepley tranced into numbness by the daily yet forever mundanity of her housewife-in-pumpkinshell confined existence.
@@JudgeJulieLit Correct. Art imitating life right there for the entire nation to see.
@@JudgeJulieLit You forgot the valium.
@@JudgeJulieLit As opposed to the working one; depressed and beat working for corporate America, forced by peer pressure to work outside the home, a contribution to the disintegration of family brought on by guilt from Third-Wave lesbian feminism.
Is that Hotsie Totsie?
DevilMaskMedia Yes, that's Debralee Scott.
Debra Lee Scott!!!!!!!!
This show was bizarre.
I was nine years old when this show was on the air. I remember it. I never liked it. I always thought it was a very weird show and so was Mary Hartman.
My dad wouldn't let us watch it, I think I remember he said she was on drugs and weird! Lol.
Methaqualone, Methaqualone.
I totally forgot Hotsie Totsie was in this show.
I know this show was fairly successful. Wondering why it only lasted two seasons?
Horney of Marys Horenet ask the GreeenHornets in this Nest
Like Twin Peaks before there was Twin Peaks.
Now I realize that the two actresses (groupies) in 200 Motels (Frank Zappa) were doing these two (impressions). That must have been Frank's idea. If that wasn't the intention, it sure is a coincidence. Who out there knows what I'm talking about?
200 Motels was several years earlier than Mary Hartman.
FZ came first. Perhaps reverse?
Louise is such a turn-on.
More like a turn-off
I just read a comment and was thinking as I read it that it made good sense, and then I saw that I had written it!
lol
I cannot imagine the amount of cocaine that was ingested during the course of the show!!!!
I remember the line being
Yellow waxy build up , not
Waxy yellow build up
Mandella affect?
