@@AmyPieterse Say hello to this Boomer. I would come home from school in 1977 at 3:30 PM, grab a coke and a Giant Food Store BIG COOKIE (Okay, two of them) went into our family home basement, lay down on an old vinyl (REALLY?) couch with a blankie and watch the Mary Tyler Moore and Bob Newhart shows back-to-back. We had about 4 or 5 TV stations available by antenna back then. Then I would fall asleep until woken up for dinner. NOTE: YEAH! This is my retirement template!
"Mr. Carlin" was a director who stepped in front of the camera for this show. He was also a writer. The fellow was very talented. What a funny sketch, Liver lips!
I think you're thinking of someone else as far as being a director. Jack Riley (the actor playing Mr. Carlin) worked as an actor on many different things over the years and also wrote a bit as you mentioned, but I found no directing credits for him in his bio.

@@Dulcimertunes I think those years of watching Saturday night sit com TV is one of the reasons I didn't get into trouble as a kid! We were all eating and watching MTM and Bob Newhart as a family and laughing.
"I'd rather sass you anyway, liver lips!"... LOVE IT!! OMG, you don't know how popular of an insult "Liver lips" was on the schoolyard in the late 70's.
I love Mr Carlin. He made an appearance on Newhart's later show as a guest at the Inn. One of his comments was that he had seen a 'guy in Chicago who really screwed up', hahaha.
Hats off to Bob Newhart to have the lack of ego to allow himself to star in two, long-running shows. Yet (seemingly) be content to remain in the background and let other actors get the big laughs. I imagine many stars of comedy series would not be able to do that. R.I.P. Bob Newhart ☮

The Jack Benny Show model. Surround yourself with great characters and act as the lynchpin. Call the show after your own name and no matter who gets the laughs the audience will always say: Did you hear what they said on the Jack Benny, Bob Newhart, or Seinfeld Show last night.
When I heard of Bob's passing away the other day I felt real sorrow and a true loss. "The Bob Newhart Show" is my 2nd favorite Sitcom of all time. What i really liked is that it was a show about adults much like my #1 sitcom "Seinfeld". There were just a few episodes that I didn't care for and they all had to do with Howards son. RIP Mr. Newhart say hello to your good friend Don Rickles for me, I hope he made it;)
These shows are remembered and writers and comedians steal from them constantly. Every now and then I get into a Barney Miller binge that lasts about 4 hours.
The mom looks like Lauren Tewes who played the social director on the Love Boat, so I checked it out (and I see it is noted elsewhere in the comments). This episode is titled "A Day in the Life" and that family is actually a real family-the Kenneally family.
I remember watching this the night it first aired and laughing my ass off. I’m only guessing now, but was Riley responsible for cracking up the cast and causing retakes more than anyone else? I have to suppose he was until I’m corrected. All of Bob’s other regular patients were wonderful, but Mr. Carlson... what a piece of work! Also, who played the old man who only spoke about how his wealthy son was disowning and mistreating him? He did an incredible job of never once even starting to look like he was about to laugh. Thanks!
“A Day in the Life,” originally aired 29 October 1977. Believe it or not, according to IMDB: “The Swerdlow family is played by a real family; the Kenneally's - Bud, Joan, Robert and Pam (who were Mr. and Mrs. Swerdlow, and Tom and Becky, respectively).”
Seriously? I thought the actress playing the Mom was too young looking to have kids that age, and I just assumed the actors playing the kids were older than the ages they were playing. Not sure if it was a trend, but I remember several cases in older movies and TV shows where actresses playing the mother were only a few years older than the ones playing their children.
this was an actual family, The Kenneally Family... the daughter Pam Kenneally was the star of Skateboard (very hot) and the brother Robert has some credits
This show was on several years and on you tube there's only about four eps available. At least 1980s "Newhart" has every ep on you tube, in full. Carlton was weird, but funny.
They're a parody of the classic empty family on sitcoms and advertising since time immemorial. Always white, happy and empty. You see America, this could be you if you would just surrender!

Have you ever met one of those eternally happy people? These people are no doubt eternally happy people. Lol while Mr Carlin is the Quintessential Pessimist
Eliot Carlin was one of the best side characters in any sitcom!
I agree
then how come he did not have his own show ? if Hartley did not have him Carlin on his show he would not be on t. v. ! think and surprise all
@@dawnheistand912 huh? say it in English
Diane Newman They were only in this episode, I think. Saw the whole original run on broadcast back in the day. BN, MTM & Carol Burnett. Great TV!
@@dawnheistand912 the comment was he was an excellent supporting actor. What's having his own show have to do with it. Idiot
The Sverdlow Family: "We love everybody."
Dr. Hartley: "Here's your first big test."
Bob Newhart, RIP (September 5, 1929 - July 18, 2024). Goodbye to a comedy legend. 🥲
He was my favorite 😢 I’m a millennial but I watched his show as a kid on nick at nite 😢

Jack Riley spoke volumes with his facial expressions and mannerisms. He just mastered this role. Couldn't have been done better by anyone else.
He was so good at what he did!
One of the funniest things I've ever seen. And Carlin is the voice of reason.
Too funny!
Bob's understated humor is the best !!

Jerry Seinfeld was also like that to a certain extent on "Seinfeld". Often being the set up guy for the other characters antics.
Not really he got plenty of punchlines. I think he just loved the ensemble cast like Carol Burnett.

Oh, Dr. Hartley,... the Mormons are here.
Always loved Jack Riley's character on that show. =)

I wouldn’t exactly call the Seinfeld characters “adults”.
RIP Bob. From one Oak Parker to another.

"Listenin to Mick Jagger records and disrespectin' yer parents" I suspect.
😅
Probably enjoying the 70s in real time instead of this.
Since you can’t remember, I am guessing smoking dope.
Mr. Carland was probably my favorite character on the show. He was honest, sincere, and he hated everyone!😄
This has to be one of my favourite episodes! Hilarious. RIP to Bob Newhart and Jack Riley. They must’ve had a lot of tun on the set!
Jack Riley for the Mount Rushmore of side characters - a timing genious!
This was hilarious! This is a great show yet overlooked I feel. Same with Barney Miller. I love how they went from The Brady Bunch to The Bundys LOL
These shows are remembered and writers and comedians steal from them constantly. Every now and then I get into a Barney Miller binge that lasts about 4 hours.
@NormAppleton agreed! And yes it's so easy to get stuck on a binge with these gems.
I had a youth camp counselor tell me that I was too much like Mr. Carlin....that I was too cynical....my response was "Yes, and?"
Good thing they we'rent on the Titanic. Hahahaha 🤣 😂!! Lol 😅😆!!!
I love Bob's humor!!
If only people in real every day life were as nice as that family ....
Then life would be really boring and annoying lol.
You didn’t watch the whole video! They are fake and show their true selves at the end!😅
Great show. Clean comedy.
"Who do you think your callin' 'stupid', Liver Lips?!" Classic scene...and, "These people could win the Pillsbury Bore-off."
Mr. Carlin was the Howard Cosell of this show. His character always told it like it is!
Plus he wore a bad toupee!
God that show was so wholesome

This is great.
There were a lot of jokes involving the elevator on The Bob Newhart Show.
Jack Riley also appeared several times in episodes of "Night Court". His style of delivery was singular.

Mr. Vickers. Don't remember his actor, but his son was played in a guest role by William Daniels.
This is like the Eddie Haskell family.
"Mr. Carlin, what do you think you're doing?!"
"Making chocolate pudding"
Another iconic Jack Riley role.
'How long before greater Chicago learns that I take a bath with a rubber ducky???!!!'
"Well, this will be your first BIG TEST."
I used to watch this strictly for Mr Carlin
I loved Bob, but I would wait for Carlin. He was so funny
Bob should have had Carlin sit in on all his sessions. His constructive criticism would be a welcome addition to any recommendations he might suggest.

Buy the DVD set, that's where this likely came from.
So that's where the Buddy Bears from Garfield came from.
