You’d be suprised to learn how many movies are a rip off of Mork and Mindy.
Still better off than the in-laws that the guys who end up with Samantha Stevens have to put up with.
A) She’s 75 years old, B) I’m taking circa 1962 Laura as my beloved, not 2011 MTM, and C) have you seen me lately??
Well, she ain’t got money, but man she really got a lot.
mmm
Here ya go.
mmm
Y’know, I never even watched the Dick van Dyke Show, and Laura Petrie was still my first thought.
But only my first. I’d be much happier, I think, with either Jeannie or Morticia.
-
Julianna Margulies from “The Good Wife”
-
Patricia Heaton from “Everybody Loves Raymond”
-
Eva Longoria and Marcia Cross from “Desperate Housewives”
-
Leah Remini from “The King of Queens”
Gil Grissom from *CSI *(he’s nerdy, very smart, kind, has a wicked sense of humor, and is fascinated by offbeat stuff)
I would have also suggested Niles Crane from Frasier, but he likes to go out to a lot of fancy high society things and I hate dressing up, so that would never work out.
What? Along with Grace Adler from Will and Grace and Jill Taylor from Home Improvement, Debra Barone is one of the least appealing female characters on television.
You really only need a few words. I’d be willing to memorize a few French phrases for a man who loved me like that. Eh, mon ami?
Trust me - if she was my wife, there’s no way we’d be living across the street from my invasive parents and my neurotic brother. We’d be long gone and I’d make sure that sexy lil’ redhead was well taken care of.
You know that house was Debra’s decision, not Raymond’s. When they were house hunting Raymond had a map indicating minimum safe distance from his parents.
Yes I did indeed see that episode. Once she realized the error of her ways, we’d move. Like to another state.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ll be getting back on topic. :dubious:
You know something? It was still Ray’s fault. He jokes so much that Debra thought he was kidding when he described his parents. He should have arranged many, many more meetings between them before then.
Am I really the first to suggest Julie Kotter, from “Welcome Back, Kotter”. She’s smart, funny, and listens to endless uncle jokes - what’s not to like?
Ah, yes, that’s it! Thanks.
No, that position goes to “Green Acres” Oliver Wendall Douglas.
Speaking of which, his wife Lisa was ditzy but cute.
The next best thing to Bailey Quarters.
It’s not the 75 years, it’s the bad plastic surgery…
Don’t know if he was married on his show, but Dr. Paul Hunter on The Bold Ones: The New Doctors. My heartthrob from high school: smart, handsome, caring/attentive.
David Hartman.
No question Leah was/is quite the babe, but I really can’t judge her character because I could never stand to watch the show. Courtney Thorne-Smith from “According to Jim” is another babe who falls into that category, of being a beautiful wife from an unwatchable show.
