I remember discovering reruns of this show on summer mornings at the age of 10 or 11. Back to back with Bewitched. I was learning about grown-up life and fashion. And storytelling. I loved the rhythm and movement of the dialogue. And New York City.
You have just described me in kindergarten about 1969 -1970. I watched the same! Cardinali clothes are absolutely gorgeous. My mom was an amazing seamstress and loved all the color blocking.
I feel like the mid 1960's to mid1970's was the best time to grow up, for so many reasons. Music, t.v. shows, movies, fashion, and so much more. Before life became too fast-paced and crazy. I feel very lucky to have grown up then.
🤌🤌🤌@randilevson9547 So, so true...I agree it was a wonderful time to grow up in. We were lucky to grow up in that era. I miss those 'good old days' and fondly think back to them every day. 💗💗💗
Ten cents for hot water. I love Ann's version of 🍅 🍅 soup. The colours of the yellow top and the yellow frame sunglasses, along with the black and orange dress are smashing.
If I am not mistaken, I think the tomato soup was a gag for Laurel & Hardy as well, and also Abbott & Costello :) plus some real people maybe in the Depression
The automat in New York City in the 1960's! Wish I could have been there! Looks like so much fun! The only thing that was similar for me back then, was the Kresge's cafeteria, where all the food was on display, and you chose what you wanted from the shelves as you slid your tray along the rail. You could also ask for hot food, like macaroni and cheese, or crinkle fries and brown gravy. Delicious!! Beats the heck out of ketchup soup!!
Growing up in Manhattan in the 60's. I remember my parents taking my brother and I to the local Automat. We love going near St. Patrick's Day and ordering corned beef and cabbage. I remember using the machines. Glad I found this episode.
@@sbella6719 The people were in line to get change for the machines. The machines only took coins. I remember using dimes and quarters for the machines.
@@sbella6719 I believe you had to deposit exact change into the window slots, to be able to open the doors, to grab the food inside. So lots of change was needed if you wanted to have a decent meal. If time travel was possible, off I would be. New York City, 1969.
Despite earning much less money than Mary Richards, Ann Marie was a much more fashionable dresser. No idea how she managed it. Mary Richards wore mostly dull clothes in drab colours. She did have an office job, so she had to dress somewhat conservatively. Ann had more freedom in the way she dressed.
I'm hooked on this 1960s series! But Annie is way too thin here & it's such a shame about the hair style which looks like a wig. Never mind..still love her (especially the actir who plays her father..who's hilarious in this & I'm soo glad he's in nearly every story line!
I enjoyed season 1 of this show but I'm getting really tired of this season. This is awful. It's so dull and repetitive. I can predict every episode in this season. I also don't understand why did they make Ann's personality so jealous and paranoid in this season. She's downright insane.
@@suestephan3255 Marlo Thomas has always maintained that it was her real hair as Ann Marie .. she seems the same weight as always until this very day. However, her makeup ( blush) is a bit heavy in this episode so her skin does not look as “ fresh” as it normally does..
Lew Parker looks exhausted in this episode. Very dark circles under his very puffy eyes. A kind of pained expression on his face too. I hope he wasn't ill.
@@bridgettstephens5582 Good question, one would think with today's youth consisting of people who don't like too much human interaction they would bring it back! Who knows they may yet. Coins replaced with cards no doubt.

They were all very rapid fire and professional in this show. And the clothes are very chic❤

The hot water was free . The roll was 10 cents !

It was also used on an episode The Lucy Show. Lol!
I love this show and other vintage shows. There was an automatic in one of Doris Day’s movies too.
That Touch of Mink
@@ShannonLee1956 I meant to say an automat. Autocorrect changed it. Thanks!

@@randilevson9547 I used to work at a SS Kresge’s in the mid 70s. No more five snd dime stores now.
Absolutely love the young Gary Marshall and his British accent❤😂He and Marlo work very well together! DELIGHTFUL ❤

You lived my fantasy!!
I'm not familiar with automats. Why was Ann and all those people standing in line if they had to insert money to get food?

@@randilevson9547 ok. Thanks for schooling me.
It was sad to learn the OPENING BUMPER was NOT included on dvds :(
I remember the automats, it was so fun to eat at them when I was a child.
Absolutely love the young Gary Marshall and his British accent❤😂
Never heard of G.M. before. I orinally thought this was Rex Harrison's son, coincidentally really named Noel.
"Those eyes!" Poor Don.
Wow, that blonde model at 19:25 looks a little like Paris Hilton.
Yes she does!
@@feleciarogers9909 Right 😊👍
Now that you mentioned it, yes. I love the dress she's wearing
@@sbella6719 Absolutely 😊👏
Maybe that was Paris Hilton's mother. Way too early for Paris. She would not have even been born yet.
Hey, this 2-parter episode guest stars Laurie Main from Welcome To Pooh Corner, Winnie The Pooh and a Day for Eeyore, and Sing a Song with Pooh Bear!
Ted Bessell and Lew Parker were so funny.
One was sweet and one was annoying. No prizes for guessing which was which.
The Automat!! Bygone days!! I wonder if they existed in any other places besides NYC?
10:52...good for her! She tells him not to call her child
Poor Ann and her ketchup soup!! Then along comes Noel the Prince!!
Some college kids eat tomato soup by using hot water and ketchup.
We did that when I was in college 55 years ago, living on the cheap.
Now???
It seems to me that Ann Marie and Mary Richards could have exchanged outfits in the early days.
Despite earning much less money than Mary Richards, Ann Marie was a much more fashionable dresser. No idea how she managed it. Mary Richards wore mostly dull clothes in drab colours. She did have an office job, so she had to dress somewhat conservatively. Ann had more freedom in the way she dressed.
Kids these days! were born in 1937 LOL

@@FriendlyCroockThen why the hell are you here?
I love this. It's a great time capsule

Don't know why someone just didn't offer to pay for her meal?????
I thought the same. We empathic people think a like.
@@annemccarron2281
Then there would be no reason to introduce Noel Prince. But I wondered the same thing, too. 😂
In New York? Nope.
He has not said anything about money!!
that girl.. is danny thomas girl
is why she is that girl ..
Yes 10 cents for hot water some of us have eaten Ketchup sout at the Automat
The Automat seems as though it was a great idea. Any idea why they are no longer around?
Hot Water was free. It was that hard sourdough roll that cost $0.10.
@@bridgettstephens5582 back when there were automats and ketchup bottles at them.
