When I look at this video, I am instantly transported back. I thin of this scene as he was the last boy and she was the last girl and there was that 'look," back a moment in A I then go back to that Spring of Appril '75 when I was the last boy on the Junior High dance floor and Emma was the last girl and we looked at each other with this awkward glare. We hesitantly took each other's hand and the the rest of the evening became a sensual and glorious blurr.
Thanks so much - I had forgotten this show and now I remember how much I liked it. Mind you, having Bobby and David to look at sure wasn't hard to take! Great memories.
I remember there was a song on one of Bobby's albums. Can't recall the name or the album but one line of the lyrics was "how slowly each day passes by, but my how the years seem to fly". Does anyone remember what song that was????
@gayleputt I think more was "tell me why I remember kisses so tender, promising true love that never came true...where has it gone? Wish I knew. I've tried searching "wish I knew" but can't find it...HELP
If you want to see the "real" Seattle, come to Seattle and take the Seattle Underground Tour. The worlds finest toilet is on display in a glass case, and Seattle never had any houses of ill repute. We did however have a "Seamstress Tax" that the police would pick up ever Friday and we had a LOT of Seamstresses for the loggers. Last "Seamstress" place was closed down in the 1960's
Boy, I don't think I ever watched this show back in the day once. I never really watched an episode of the Waltons either.
I guess I just did not go for this kind of stuff. I watched Star Trek, The Immortal, The Name of the Game, Get Smart, The Outsider, Combat ,the Invaders and some comedies. I also watched a lot of Saturday morning programming like the Herculoids, The Banana Splits, Space Ghost, Bullwinkle and Underdog.
I was about 7 ,or 8 when this Song and T.V Show came out and I cry just absorbing its lyrics, fondly and with forelorn remembering how innocent those times were, or at least seemed to be; how much we seemed to be loved and love life. I want to go back for at least a week . I want my family life with Mom and Dad. I want those innocent lazy days of summer. I want my old girlfriend, the pizza place, the bubblegum music and times. Am I alone in feeling this way?
If you like Bobby Sherman, you might like my bubblegum music podcast, Echo Valley. We play music by Bobby almost every show! Just Google "echo valley podcast"!
Wow! This one takes me way back to my high school years! Don't know if that's good or not. Lived on Whidbey Island, WA and this was a popular show up there.
Growing up I was POSITIVE that I would have three boys and they would be named Jason, Jeremy, and Joshua! I LOVED those names, this show - and the stars. Thanks for the video!
HELLO, ALL. I have Season 1 on DVD and I play it whenever I need an emotional lift. Good hearts, genuine love, loyal friendships, strong family ties, solid, positive values, optimistic story lines all on display. I also love the beautiful, charming clothes. SOCIETY did used to be cleaner, gentler, much more sophisticated. It can be again if we just share these images with the children (My husband and I do). BEST WISHES TO ALL.
Just found out who this guy is due to a Simpsons Episode. But I find it interesting to see the positive responses of Childhood compared to today's child hood. I grew up in the 90's. I know things now today are getting progressively worse.
@MARILYN19481 should, be Seattle's song , only 39 yrs old , mom liked bobby, used to make fun of, until i started watching "here come's the brides"on antenna t.v. on sunday's @10 a.m. pacific
YOu have to be a 60's child with a good memory to remember this one--loved the catchy main tune, Bobby Sherman (looks and voice) and the best looking bunch of lumber jacks and their ladies to hit the small screen. "the bluest skies you've ever seen in seattle" Thank you for posting this--you've brought back some wonderful tv memories for me.
"The bluest skies you've ever seen...." Heh, heh,...obviously written by someone who's never lived there! Cute song. I remember this series. Was just a tyke.
Just about the dumbest series ever but I enjoyed it when I was young. I often feel no connection with young people. They are shown stuff just as dumb but it is often so weird and violent. This one was pretty geeky but nice and fun.
I remember this show and I remember, given I was 3, loving it. Loved the song and had a crush on the red head...Bridget 'something'...! Was like 'Gunsmoke' with music, which I did not like but my g'mother did (though I doubt she understood half of it as she was born and raised in Italy), so we watched it. I still enjoy the song, I think, or maybe just the memories the song reminds me of in my life. More innocent. Less drama and trauma and confusion. Even paid for song from itunes. Good memories,
Oh, how I loved this show! Agree with you, Jannieja, that was a wonderful period for TV. *sigh* It was great for Pop music, too. So many happy tunes with an actual melody, and you could EVEN understand the words they were saying.
I loved this show when I saw it in prime time, back when I was eleven. But while I remember Bobby having a nice voice, Jason Bolt was ALWAYS the one I drooled over. Second on my crush list. First was Edward Mulhare as Captain Daniel Gregg on The Ghost and Mrs. Muir. Both shows started in the fall on 1968 and were cancelled after only two seasons.
I grew up mainly on early 80's action shows/cartoons, but this looks like a show that would be worth seeing, if only for the great theme song. It looks a bit like the reruns of Gunsmoke that used to air on saturday afternoons in '85.
Here Come the Brides-Loved this show and the song. Have chosen a long version done by Bobby Sherman showing a lot of scenes from the show. Fun times on TV.
I was about 10 or so when Here Come the Brides was airing on Friday nights. I remember all of us guys thought Bridgit Hanley was a real cutie and all the girls liked Bobby Sherman. I remember teasing my cousin Kim by telling her she was lying about liking Jeremy and that I heard she really liked Clancy, the old Irish guy....LOL. I miss those days so much.
@ridgerunner721601 I still have the "Ship in a bottle" model of Clancy's boat my Grandfather made for me when I was a kid. I wonder whatever happened to the real one used in the show?
@AliceFan1 LOL...There's no telling. A lot of that kind of stuff is auctioned off by the studios. It would be nice to be able to afford something like that.
I loved this show!! I couldn't wait for, I think it was Friday nights, to watch it when I was a kid. I had a big crush on Bobby Sherman (who also sings the theme song). I found this because I was watching some Elvis vids, then it made me want to look up Bobby's music, then it led me to this. Memories...
I remember this from my childhood, and I just have to say the comments on here are hilarious. "Bring back these kind of good clean shows". "Those were the days" etc.
What's the moral value in sappy inane escapism? It was the Vietnam War. There were worldwide Revolutions in '68! Were you people totally checked out? No wonder we went to crap.
If you don't watch crappy network reality shows, we are living in the Golden Age of television. The Medium has finally come into its own!
Dear Lord, I miss shows like this- what in the world is happening to our planet? I wish they would bring back great acting and entertainment like this- not the trash that's on TV today!
Okay, now I know I've gone back in time. I remember having a crush on Bridget Hanley, and I remember Joan Blondell, David Soul and of course, Bobby Sherman in the show. Good clean shows back then unlike the profane disrespectful garbage we have today.
@kezm1310am Bridget Hanley was on an episode of The Brady Bunch one time as an actress named Myrna (in that instance pronounced Meerna ;) ). While looking at some stuff for Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, I just noticed that today is Bobby Sherman's Birthday (# 67). He was always a nice guy, and he's an EMT now. Happy Birthday Bobby. God Bless you!
I loved this show! I was a young girl and thought Bobby Sherman aka Jeremy was so cute.me,.my sister and cousin .use to act out the show and made our own words,,,,Those were the good days.... Wheres Bobby at ??
What a GREAT tribute Thank you for sharing it with us, brought back a TON of memories..... Bobby Sherman does a fantastic job with this song ( as does Perry Como on his hit version of this tune) YOU ROCK Klaatubes !!!!!
What a GREAT tribute Thank you for sharing it with us, brought back a TON of memories..... Bobby Sherman does a fantastic job with this song ( as does Perry Como on his hit version of this tune) YOU ROCK Klaatubes !!!!!
HERE COMES THE BRIDES had EVERYTHING POSITIVE. Characters with genuine integrity, solid sense of community; people looking out for each other. So nice to be reminded how open and unspoiled the landscape used to be. THANKS FOR POSTING! I'm going to get the DVD so my children can see what quality television looks like.
Also from that era-born in 61. Watched this show mostly because it was a feel-good type show with some likable characters. To be truthful though, the show was full of fashion anachranisms, archetypes & cliched story lines. At my age, that was acceptable. I just loved Bridget Hanley. 1 of my youngest crushes-never forgot her. She (& Bobby to a point) was the only reason I was sad to see the show go. It was mediocre at best. In hindsight, wardrobe looked less genuine, and more like costumes.
I loved this show when it aired but it was a bit progressive and didn't last as long as it should have. Thankfully season one is out on dvd and I encourage everyone to buy it so that the company will see a need and release season two. Please do the same with Room 222 so we can see future seasons of that great show as well.
I have not seen this show since I was 10, when it first aired on ABC. Love the clips you used to make this video. Lots of real outdoor shots and some nice camera work. Oh ya, also the home of my second crush - Bridget Hanley aka Candy Pruett.
I loved the year we focused on Northwest History in elementary school (3rd grade back in the 70's), and this song was a favorite in music class! 6th grade was the Old Prospector's Song..."surrounded by acres of cla-a-ams!" Yes, Puget Sound comes with its own culture, gotta love it!
Thanks for the memories. I grew up in Seattle and was 8 yrs old when "Here Come the Brides" debuted. What a stud Robert Brown was, but of course Bobby was quite the cutie, too.
Beautiful, Heartwarming song, Just love it. Such great memories, so glad I was raised during this time. I actually feel sorry for kids today, things used to be so much simpler and wonderful. It 's a harsh world out there now.
I can remember this TV show from back when I was a little girl in the 60. Seattle certainly isn't anything like that now. Still it's a fun city to visit.
On the rare days that you can see the sky, it probably does look a little extra blue. Like the rest, I thought all was lost, then along came youtube to bring back the dreams of our youth.
I bought the complete series on line from the states....the quality on a few shows isn't the best but you can still see them and it is the whole second season...I'm not too picky..I'm happy with it..
i heard this song first on The Critic. when that woman mistaked Jay Sherman for Bobby Sherman. but i can tell yeah, Jay sings this song so much better
I love this show..I wrote to Robert Brown a month ago.....he's still going strong..my fav character on the show ..the show stands on its own tho...it was great and still is..I have the whole series so I can go back anytime...
Dakotahstr, how on earth did you get the entire series?? They've only released season 1 on DVD. Lucky you! I am dying to find out what happens to all of them in the second season!
Ahhh, yes. The late 60's and early 70's. LOL Hippies, drugs, decadent rock stars, Woodstock, Charles Manson, witchcraft, Richard Nixon, The Hells Angels scandals, corny TV shows with actors-turned-singer, polyester outfits, flared bellbottoms, bad hairdos, porkchop sideburns, yellow smiley faces, peace signs, brown panelling, scary movies about devil worship, the rise of the junk food industry, and nobody worried about HIV. Aren't you guys glad that's over? LOL
Not all of the 60s was bad. My 1960s childhood and 70s teenage years were cleancut and "geeky" one...consisting The Beach Boys (without Manson lurking around), Shindig, Family Affair, Motown, Easy Bake ovens, double dutch jump rope, eating cookie dough without worrying about getting sick over it, being able to walk to and from school without worrying about molesters,
well spoken, I would not trade the times I grew up for today's ever mgc2125! For me, it was just such an easier more laid back time filled with friends & the best teen idols to ever walk the earth!
I liked watching this show as a kid -- in Seattle! The only problem has been with the song -- that "scent of pine trees in the air" bit when there aren't that many pines in Western WA; it would've been more accurate to say 'scent of fir trees' instead since they're everywhere.
You can count me in that club... Bridget Hanley had me "fainting" and I was just a little boy then... hehe... aren't crushes a wonderful part of growing up... ;).
I liked this show, it was great. So glad I was born in 1958 and was a kid in the 60's and 70's. We had the BEST shows then. All they are today are crime shows, violence, sex or stupidity. I actually feel so sorry for kids today, they don't have a clue.
@jannieja yup i know what you mean i as born 1990 but i grew up like show like here come the brides and i love Lucy and the hardy boys and other great show like that thank GOD i had TV land than most show to day suck really bad
@jannieja: i was born in '58 too and i cried when i saw a rerun of this- it really made me miss those great old TV shows too- you're so right- there's hardly anything good on anymore- too much trash and not enough of sweet shows like these !
@teceyS3 You're so right! There is just trash on TV now! Watching a show like this makes you really appreciate what we had back then. I miss good clean shows. Try turning on a TV show today without hearing a bad word. It's almost impossible. There is nothing good to watch. I miss the clean and decent shows like this that can bring a tear to your eye.
@Beautifulmusiclistnr: i know- i miss this stuff so bad i looked on amazon to get the series on DVD- i don't even go to the theater anymore- nothing decent to watch much there either. i want to get these old shows on DVD and sit back w/ a huge bowl of popcorn smothered in butter and enjoy ! ! !
@teceyS3 Believe me, I hear ya! I'm so tired of reality shows. They're just soap operas with unpaid actors. I so miss the old TV shows and movies and old songs. I came across the movie "Hello Down There" with Tony Randall and Janet Leigh here on YT. I also found "Where The Red Fern Grows". Just wonderful! I miss that kind of stuff......the clean stuff, the good stuff. I think I'll get some clean DVD's myself also! FYI, I stopped going to the movies in 1987 because there was just junk.
oh wow, this is great! I was 10 to 12 yrs. old and my mother and I watched this together. My favorite was Bobby Sherman and hers was Robert Brown (now I see, he's a heart stopper). This tribute was terrific but missing a few stars...it needed more Joan Blondell and there's no David Soul. What a wonderful, innocent show.
This is a great vid. I love Bobby Sherman's voice and you have captured all the reasons why I loved the show while matching them to the words perfectly. Great job!
Haven't seen/heard this since it aired on TV. Somehow, I remember the theme song to be much grander, but I guess it couldn't have been since Bobby Sherman sang it.
That's cuz it's from the 60's show Here Come The Brides was was set in the 1800's. :) Great show! And the Bolt Brothers! I watched his back in the 60's and still love it...
I loved this show and I always loved Bobby Sherman. I had forgotten how many stars came out of that show.

Bobby Sherman was a true 60s icon! having been a regular on ABC-TV's "SHINDIG!"
this man played a vital part of the Teen Beat years,before landing the co starring part
on Screen Gems' "HERE COME THE BRIDES" series in 1968. i have a few of his
records,,and at the time,he was up there,with his music! then there was the spin-
off from "The PARTRIDGE FAMILY"-"GETTIN' TOGETHER!" in 1971-that sure
had some potential,although short-lived!

Okay, now I know I've gone back in time. I remember having a crush on Bridget Hanley, and I remember Joan Blondell, David Soul and of course, Bobby Sherman in the show. Good clean shows back then unlike the profane disrespectful garbage we have today.

@Beautifulmusiclistnr Bridget Hanley! I could not remember her name. She was big in the 70's, as I recall. She was a doll!

@kezm1310am Bridget Hanley was on an episode of The Brady Bunch one time as an actress named Myrna (in that instance pronounced Meerna ;) ). While looking at some stuff for Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, I just noticed that today is Bobby Sherman's Birthday (# 67). He was always a nice guy, and he's an EMT now. Happy Birthday Bobby. God Bless you!

HERE COMES THE BRIDES had EVERYTHING POSITIVE. Characters with genuine integrity, solid sense of community; people looking out for each other. So nice to be reminded how open and unspoiled the landscape used to be. THANKS FOR POSTING! I'm going to get the DVD so my children can see what quality television looks like.

Also from that era-born in 61. Watched this show mostly because it was a feel-good type show with some likable characters. To be truthful though, the show was full of fashion anachranisms, archetypes & cliched story lines. At my age, that was acceptable. I just loved Bridget Hanley. 1 of my youngest crushes-never forgot her. She (& Bobby to a point) was the only reason I was sad to see the show go. It was mediocre at best. In hindsight, wardrobe looked less genuine, and more like costumes.

I loved this show when it aired but it was a bit progressive and didn't last as long as it should have. Thankfully season one is out on dvd and I encourage everyone to buy it so that the company will see a need and release season two. Please do the same with Room 222 so we can see future seasons of that great show as well.

I loved the year we focused on Northwest History in elementary school (3rd grade back in the 70's), and this song was a favorite in music class! 6th grade was the Old Prospector's Song..."surrounded by acres of cla-a-ams!" Yes, Puget Sound comes with its own culture, gotta love it!

Ahhh, yes. The late 60's and early 70's. LOL Hippies, drugs, decadent rock stars, Woodstock, Charles Manson, witchcraft, Richard Nixon, The Hells Angels scandals, corny TV shows with actors-turned-singer, polyester outfits, flared bellbottoms, bad hairdos, porkchop sideburns, yellow smiley faces, peace signs, brown panelling, scary movies about devil worship, the rise of the junk food industry, and nobody worried about HIV. Aren't you guys glad that's over? LOL

Not all of the 60s was bad. My 1960s childhood and 70s teenage years were cleancut and "geeky" one...consisting The Beach Boys (without Manson lurking around), Shindig, Family Affair, Motown, Easy Bake ovens, double dutch jump rope, eating cookie dough without worrying about getting sick over it, being able to walk to and from school without worrying about molesters,

I liked watching this show as a kid -- in Seattle! The only problem has been with the song -- that "scent of pine trees in the air" bit when there aren't that many pines in Western WA; it would've been more accurate to say 'scent of fir trees' instead since they're everywhere.

I liked this show, it was great. So glad I was born in 1958 and was a kid in the 60's and 70's. We had the BEST shows then. All they are today are crime shows, violence, sex or stupidity. I actually feel so sorry for kids today, they don't have a clue.

@teceyS3 You're so right! There is just trash on TV now! Watching a show like this makes you really appreciate what we had back then. I miss good clean shows. Try turning on a TV show today without hearing a bad word. It's almost impossible. There is nothing good to watch. I miss the clean and decent shows like this that can bring a tear to your eye.

@teceyS3 Believe me, I hear ya! I'm so tired of reality shows. They're just soap operas with unpaid actors. I so miss the old TV shows and movies and old songs. I came across the movie "Hello Down There" with Tony Randall and Janet Leigh here on YT. I also found "Where The Red Fern Grows". Just wonderful! I miss that kind of stuff......the clean stuff, the good stuff. I think I'll get some clean DVD's myself also! FYI, I stopped going to the movies in 1987 because there was just junk.

oh wow, this is great! I was 10 to 12 yrs. old and my mother and I watched this together. My favorite was Bobby Sherman and hers was Robert Brown (now I see, he's a heart stopper). This tribute was terrific but missing a few stars...it needed more Joan Blondell and there's no David Soul. What a wonderful, innocent show.
