Ummm... that's called a "Flat top" cut. Very popular back then, although they were normally cut quite close on the sides (no - I never had one of those. I wanted a Beatles' cut.).

Yep, a flat top. Like Sgt Carter wore on Gomer Pyle. I didn't care for them as a kid, but tried one on for size as an adult about 10 years ago. I liked it, but I wasn't going to the barber every other week just to keep it looking nice.

I am all for talking about the episodes. Debating about whether to get the rest of the series.

 

[SuperClark]

I guess Herman Munster had a natural 'flat top'.There should be no doubt as to getting the rest of the series.Its great! I think my second favorite tv family is from the Donna Reed show.Come on and release seasons 6-8!

Yes. The rest of Donna Reed is on my list of TV shows I would want. Maybe MPI can somehow acquire the rest of it. If all of O&H can make it......

Agree, Gary. I watched 2 more great episodes from early Season 6- The Mystery Shopper and Ricky's Big Night. It is interesting how a simple event or incident can be made into such a fun and entertaining storyline or plot. I read a little about the young lady Elaine DuPont who appeared in Ricky's Big Night. A very cute looking girl. She was born in 1933, which made her older than Ricky or David. So at the time that episode was filmed in 1957, she was 23 or 24, but she could have passed for 3 or 4 years younger easily. DuPont was once married to Ray "Crash" Corrigan, who appeared in various films and did a lot of stunt work.

I watched a few episodes tonight. I've always loved Ozzie's dream sequences and also how flustered he gets when things get confused or mixed up. Darby's amusement when Ozzie gets upset is hilarious. It is wonderful seeing so many episodes I've never seen. What a great show. It was a long road to get here but, wow, it has been worth it.

I plan to complete the series. The last seasons contain some of my favorite episodes.

I preordered Seasons 11 and 12 from BullMoose. It has been a blast watching these sets. So many of these episodes i have never seen before.

 

[ponset]

One has to wonder if this photo of David and Ricky were taken with Kodacolor film.

If anyone would like to see a 19 year old Linda Evans (The Big Valley ; Dynasty), go to the Season 10 episode titled: "The Randolph's Niece". She's 80 years old now. In the credits, she's listed as Linda Evenstad which is her birth name. She was in another episode in Season 9, but I can't remember which one.

Would that be The Girl That Loses Things? Roberta Shore was also in that episode. Linda was featured in 5 episodes according to research I just did.

I believe you're right. If she's in 5 episodes, she must be in several more in seasons that haven't been released yet. Yeah, I like Roberta's "look" also! I have a CD called "Hollywood Princesses" where Roberta sings 8 songs on it (the most of any of the other 'princesses'). I think I remember liking a couple of them.
Darla Hood (Our Gang / The Little Rascals) sings 4 songs.

I'm sure you haven't missed Cheryl Holdridge - another looker - in several episodes so far as "Norma". If you remember, Cheryl was also Wally's girlfriend for a while in Leave It To Beaver.
Wow, she sure gets around!

Cheryl played 2 parts in Leave It To Beaver. First as Gloria Cusick and then later was Julie Foster. Of course, she was in The Mickey Mouse Club and turned up in various other TV shows, including Bachelor Father, My Three Sons, The Donna Reed Show, The Rifleman, Hawaiian Eye, Dennis The Menace, Dr. Kildare, Mr. Novak, The Dick Van Dyke Show and a few others.

I'm also a fan of Roberta. She was in the first four seasons of The Virginian (currently airing on Starz Western). Unfortunately for us, she retired at 22 to focus on her family, being a devout Mormon. But I can appreciate that she did what was best for herself.

Just having watched The Usher (season 3), enjoyed it and some funny lines by Ricky. It's interesting to observe the way he and David jab at each other in the early episodes. Later on their relationship evolved into more of a cooperative one, especially when David worked at the law office.
