Would I be correct in that Jenny Lake is patterned after actress singer Tina Louise who sang for the troops during the Vietnam war with Less Brown's band with Bob Hope? As you may know Tina Louise played Ginger on Gilligan's Island?
This was probably the best scene of the whole series. They really did well with splice real footage from the USO shows and they got the look and feel of the 60s navy, not to mention the irony of the song vs Hammer never coming back.
You know, she's a pretty good singer. I love the song, and the episode almost made me cry. (And I, like, néver cry.) Expecially Jenny(Mac)'s story, with her fiancee, and then Harmon sr. going down too...
This episode and the one where Harm went looking for his Father in Russia are two that never fail to bring me to tears....Thank you for commenting on this....
yes....Gypsy Eyes is the second part of TRWL....I know the DVD is out....I had it on tape a while ago, but have moved twice since I taped it, so I have lost it....I need to get the DVD's myself....
I'm not sure if the DVD's out in The Netherlands. And I can't get the USA-Dvd 'cause the USA are region 1, and Europe is region 2... Too bad. I believe over here you can get the DVDs up to season 6. I've only got season 2. ;-)
And, er, I forgot to say it in my other comment: Thanks for uploading!
@MinervaAnnMcGonagall I have to agree I remember this feeling so anti-climatic when this first aired since we knew what happened with harm's dad by this point in the show but it was still a great song and sad to see 10 years later.
Bring a tear to me every time. My grandfather god rest his soul was 13 hours shy of flying F4s. this makes me think of him every time. Such a beautiful jet the F4 was, I hate that the Air Force is using them as live targets for the new damn jets!
Absolutely one of the best episodes...if you followed the show. it definately a teary eye cuz thats how Harms father went MIA when he was shot down. The song made it sad...Anytime i hear that song I think of JAG
I know! It is my FAVOURITE Christmas song....I have a small audio clip of part of it, but unfortunately, I cannot send it to you....I am not on my home computer, and I won't be for a couple of days. But if you want me to, I can look later, and then drop you a line about it....
I know....I have long said that this is my favourite version of this song! It has always been my favourite Christmas song anyway, and now it is by someone I have always liked on tv....
While she sings "if only in my dreams" he´s ejecting. It´s so sad. I almost cry every time I see (and hear) it.

Even though it's a movie and the acting is... For the young:
The movie does reflect what we thought of while flying missions in VN. During moments of flight I wondered what was going on back home. USMC F4b.

I think the strangest character in this one was Phyliss Diller (sp?) who Harriet played. So out of character for her!

It remembers me a lot to this episode of Macross: watch?v=_qhjRQRxSHE
There is also another episode, I think its Miss Macross where they mix jets combat and a singer (Minmei) in the ship.

This is the saddest part of the episode, because Harm's dad gets shot down behind enemy lines, and even sucks more to get hit on Christmas Eve.
