  • "Why aren't you home with the dishes?" Men sure knew how to handle their women back then.

  • I love seeing Ernie laugh. Same as the time when he was a "mystery guest" and was laughing so much at Dorothy K's screech of recognition. Come to think of it, I feel the same way when I see Lucille Ball or Carol Burnett laugh.

    I guess there is something more satisfying seeing one of these great comedians laugh than seeing anyone else laugh. It's almost like seeing a small bit of payback for all the laughs they've given, it's wonderful to see them enjoying the same.

  • Ms.Adams appeared on this show twice..the second time she was on with her husband..

    Mr.Kovacs.

  • Ahahaha i actually laughed out loud at the dishes part

  • @mca1218 - Yes, that's an absolutely great take by him; putting his hand up to his mask, you can see him mulling it over in his mind. It's moments like this that made the show so great. I've often wondered whether a show like that would make it today. My gut feeling is no, that it's too locked into it's era in terms of interpersonal dealings that just aren't the same any more, but I'd love to be proven wrong. Anyway, good observation.

  • Edie still sent by Edith then. Actually I find her more sensuous than Marilyn. As for laughter, as one poster mentioned. I think the most charming laugh was Phylis Diller's. That woman could really laugh in an unaffected manner, as evidenced by her appearance on this program or on the Friars Roasts.

  • @soulierinvestments I've seen "Cinderella" and if you remember, Cinderella was played by Julie Andrews! It's a lovely piece. I think Alice Ghostly and Kaye Ballard played the wicked step sisters. Such fun! The music, if I remember right, was very beautiful.

  • There is certainly no doubt of the good fortune Ernie Kovacs had...incredible comedic talent and an incerdibly beautiful wife who loved him dearly......we should all be so lucky

  • When Ernie was killed, he was heavily in debt. Edie didn't realize that and was shocked when she found out. She worked many years in nightclubs and did many TV commercials to pay off that debt.

  • That's right , the 50's was a decade of Utopia for men ...today a remark like that he would have gotten the dishes thrown at him, plus a month on the sofa. Roles are reversed today lol.

  • She wore her perfume. What a foolish thing.

  • Why aren't you home with the dishes??? hahahaha best part!!!
