She was the best, though the opening for this show plays like an ad for perfume. And that haircut was not flattering.

NBC, dude, not ABC. The WSYR mentioned in this promo is different from the current ABC affiliate in Syracuse after 2005.

This show is one of the greatest sitcoms of all time, and it played a direct role in creating modern television as we know it. Its creators went on to make shows like Taxi, Cheers, and The Simpsons. The vast radiation of talent from this show's production team (James L. Brooks, James Burrows, Ed. Weinberger, etc.) would go on to create or inspire most of the comedies on American television from the 1980's to the current day. First degree of separation creators like Greg Daniels (King of the Hill, The Office, and Parks and Recreation) continue to inspire and create new shows. As a bonus, MTM (the studio) also more or less created modern TV workplace drama with shows like St. Elsewhere and Hill Street Blues, which themselves went on to inspire everything from L.A. Law and E.R. to all of the Dick Wolf procedurals.

Heck, i liked the damn car and wished i had a 70 Mustang in 1970. She was unemployed and had one, why couldn't I?

Lou's office took a hit when the show made it to the airways.

That was the original scene between Lou Grant and Mary. The one that aired in the pilot was slightly rewritten to make Lou a little less grumpy. They only changed it about 15%, but if you watch the two takes back-to-back you see the adjustment.

“It’s about what it’s all about” terrible tagline. Looks like a good show though. This must be where B.J. became a doctor and met his wife before he went back in time to be on M.A.S.H

Social media would be all over this if it were today

If you notice, in the opening credits, Mary always either catches the bus in front of the house, or parks on the street in front of the house. That is because the house was built in 1892 and had no driveway.

Alright I'm hooked.

As spoofed on an episode of "The Carol Burnett Show". William Conrad was the guest star on that episode.

They never performed live

@1:10 is that Penny Marshall? Or Lynne Lipton? Lynne was in the pilot episode. I want to see episodes of this show again!

If I had this sort of interview, I'd be out of the door. I would not want to work for someone who behaved like this.

Wow sally feild is old enough to have been in a black and white show.

Yes- it was a ground-breaking show but how "funny" was it?

Hi Ernie, I be Pea Pickin Excited over owning one of that there 57 wagons.

OMG ! Desi looks around 8 years old ! 😳😳😳😳😳😳

This show was so much better than Happy Days.

Any chance you can upload the series?

I was only 6 when this show aired but i remember an episode when jeff's mother is hit by a car driven by his buddy.

That's Teri Garr dancing behind Dino.

Man from Atlantis is an American superherotelevision series that ran on the NBC network from 1977-78. It initially began as four TV movies that had aired in Spring 1977. The movies achieved high ratings which led to the commissioning of a weekly series for the 1977-78 season, but it was cancelled after 13 episodes. HOW LONG CAN HE LIVE WITHOUT WATER? 24 TO 40 HOURS ?

Karen valentine was so gorgeous and sophisticated.talented and charming.

AT 1:04 HE PUTS HAND UP HER CRACK!! WTF???

It's hard to imagine going to a job interview and being asked what your religion is, whether you are married, and if not, why not?

It’s crazy to know it was because of this show Erik Fleming from Rawhide lost his life

Q: What is a snork? A: Sea Smurfs

Me acuerdo en casa de mis tías y abuela ver esta serie los domingos por la tarde. Me trae unos emocionantes recuerdos.

And in 2027 (after 54 years on CBS)…the Grammys are coming back to ABC!!!

The cutest girls anywhere.

RIP Teri Garr

She did these wheat thin commercial for almost 30 years. In the 70s and 80s

Love the theme song

Too bad this show was so quickly forgotten😁

What a hottie.

"There will be no questions accepted addressing lung issues, we bought the time, goll darn you!" Wikipedia should be paid today, as Ed died in '74 of Esophageal cancer, and Dick Stark was available for comment, at that time. The Grand Rapids, MI native died of a heart attack in '86.

Epic theme song intro!

The New People is frequently listed as one of the worst shows in television history.The theme is corny.

This show is frequently listed as one the worst in television history.

People Smoke Chesterfields And We Tell You What Happens 😂😂😂

It was opposite Laugh In and Gunsmoke.

This show was a huge bomb.

One of four original series created by writer Rod Serling. “The New People” was almost certainly the inspiration for the series “Lost”.

An earlier version of Lost

The New People are the Old People now. And ABC still uses that same logo.

Song seems to be heavily influenced by louie, louie

Lord of the Flies - The Series

Her personal life was so tragic. Alcoholism, being the adult child of one, but she was a survivor. The biggest mistake Mary Richards made is that she didn't know or think it was okay to have a life that didn't involve her co workers. I saw the pilot episode and thought she lived in the whole house. I didn't know at the time that a House can be converted into an apt.

And Now, Back to The New People!
