@weightfeather1 That's what I've read...shows like LOVE ON A ROOFTOP, HE & SHE, and GOOD MORNING WORLD didn't fit in an era when the hit sitcoms were rural (anything set in part or whole in Hooterville), gimmicky (suburban housewife/witch, beautiful girl/2.000 year old genie, novitiate who takes flight at inopportune times) or comfortably familiar (wacky redhead does crazy things, bachelor raising kids with help from his live-in domestic).
I remember being on the set of the Universal sound stage. The cityscape was a huge wall painting with lightbulbs imbedded for the night scenes. They were shooting the Munsters next door there during that same period.
The 2nd season of this show was sandwiched between Bewitched and That Girl. I wonder why it bombed,. back then...people didnt change the channel because it took effort so they just sat through the dud show to see the hit show. Wonder why it failed
This was a fun series. Judy Carne was on the Captain Penny Show in Cleveland, Ohio and he was barely sober and seemed to have recovered nicely from his wife's suicide off a bridge. It was almost indecent, and this was a kiddie show, but I figured I would understand it better when I grew up.
I used to enjoy this show The golden age of situation comedies Marlo Judy and Elizabeth were the leading actresses at this time Thanks for the video These were like mini movies in their day They actually had music/soundtrack written exclusively for the episodes.
Boy! Do I remember this show! I was only in fourth grade when this show first came on.
Secondly, Judy Carne and Burt Reynolds were divorced in either 1965 or 1966. Whether they got divorced before this show, or while this show, was even on the air, I don't know.
But anyway, I havent's seen this show since 1971: when ABC last aired it.
Amazon has put a placeholder up on their site where you can sign up to be notified by e-mail whenever a DVD release of "Love on a Rooftop" becomes available, so PLEASE VOTE!!!!
No, Judy was married to Burt Reynolds at the time this pilot was originally filmed, 'sonny'. It was filmed in color- this is a black & white print. Only 30 episodes {one season} were produced- it was eventually syndicated, on and off, through the '90s.
How fondly I remember Love On A Rooftop from when I was in my 13th year.
One of the players who went on to become quite well-known long after the stars were either has-beens or dead was Rich Little.(I'll always remember him doing a few imitations on an episode of LOAR.)
When I read in a TV Magazine that Judy Carne would be a regular on Rowan & Martin's new show that gave me added reason to watch it.
hi there...thanks for posting....this was right after gidget was canceled.....peter duel had his next tv show.........and judy carne right before laugh in......this show was in color too

This was one of the crappiest shows on TV. Rich Little alweays made the show somewhat bearable.

@sopaman1234 Now that you mention it, they were. "Love on a Rooftop" was a Screen Gems show.

I believe the voiceover here was done by Don Porter, then most recently known for starring on TV's "Gidget" as Sally Field's father.
