"The Doodlin' Song"

[hfelton]

I think Peggy Lee wrote the song. I know she recorded it. I was in Junior High when the Van Dyke show came on and I had a real crush on Mary, though she was an ''older woman,'' but I believe Ms. Lewis was a slightly better dancer based on this clip.

Every time I see this I wonder why ewe have not heard or seen more of Sylvia Lewis over the years ......... she just strikes me as an absolute treasure of beauty, talent, and class! And I am sure that I am not the only one that feels that way!!!!!

[Saharaartsarah]

What a happy little ditty. Aww, and at 0:57 they hold hands :}

[nojo191]

Does sheet music exist for this?

[jen2174]

The brunette is hot, very sophisticated looking

[Easleytee]

A beautiful sense of life expressed and conveyed.

"The New Rochelle Parents' Council." Wouldn't it be wonderful if there really were such a thing?

[munchymonster999]

I have to do this thing in my chorus class in school to this song, it's a little different like the song but it's really fun

[BasicLullabye]

"Why don't you join the group? It's better than being a partypoop!"

I sang this song today! & I have to say, the doodlin' always reminded me of the song "Chelsea Dagger" :/

Love the DVD show!

[TheBruinsFan17]

they both are just so beautiful and cute in this I cant take it. I'm 26 and I've been forced to think Britney Spears and Lady Gaga are talented and gorgeous. I truly was born in the wrong era.

This clip is an example of Sylvia Lewis' talent as not only a dancer, but also a choreographer. Her choreography is simple, and very efffective. She is also beautiful, but she is more beautiful today than ever. I was fortunate to see a picture of hers, taken a few months ago. I keep looking at her videos over and over.

[MegaPffft]

Sylvia Lewis is so beautiful to watch over and over again........such a delight!

[jcbsebrigh]

[DOEDI89]

[lebow1]

OH NO, NOT THEM SINGING

[TMOSSAMI]

Can't get enough of this!

[PhaseAndDaze]

We're actually doing this song for show choir. It's so much fun to sing!

[stephenjoeagi]

Lovely. Syl is a first class choreographer, as well as danse

[pithair1]

This number had to be staged by Bob Fosse. The costumes and the choreography is so Fosse.

[oldgypsytap]

@pithair1 .The number was staged by Sylvia Lewis who also staged and performed this and "Cielito Lindo" from the same episode.

[straypooch]

@pithair1 I see your point, though. It really looks Fosse-like.

[mahajoma1]

They should have resolved Dick and Mary's dispute by giving Sylvia Lewis her own show! What a talent!

[filmguy3d]

That was so much fun!! Sylvia Lewis shines in this! Who were those other two??

[bbmcrae]

@filmguy3d I know you are kidding.
