  • Only knew William from his role on I Love Lucy. Just looked him up on Wiki to find he had a very interesting and full career. Thanks for posting this.

  • @flooflox - You are welcome!

  • @flooflox He played "Bub" O'Casey on My Three Sons for 5 seasons also. Check him out on there. He is a riot! Bill Frawley was a fine song and dance man as well as comedy but then in vaudeville one had to do everything.

  • @storrs19 - his full name on the show was Michael Francis 'Bub' O'Casey : ) He was mad as hell when they replaced him with William Demarest ... he didn't want to retire. The last thing he did was a special quickie appearance on The Lucy Show ...

  • That was back in the day when our nation had the b*lls to confront an enemy. Now we are weak and doomed. Bin Laden laughs at the paper tiger which is now the US. I wish I had been born in Frawley's generation when this nation stood for something.

  • It's jack up that he said sneaky jap now when you look at it, but these were the days of wwII and pearl harbor. Japan had attacked America on our turf.

  • Anyone mentioned this is a Spike Jones song and they're playing the music?

  • @cmania26 - The 1940's? You should search for "Flappers" and take a look at what they were wearing back in the 1920's. Or you could look for a Betty Boop cartoon. She was modeled after Helen Kane, one of the most popular women entertainers of the '20's and her cartoon attire is pretty accurate.

  • lol thats a good song

  • Who knew they had mini skirts in the 1940s

  • He was in Sons of Guns and She's my baby, Reagan had the same balls during the cold war battle against the USSR
