Gildersleeve always had an Extremely cool and expressive face.

Many of these episodes have a basic message that is timeless. I love the message in this one: you don't have to be wealthy to have class and know how to treat people with respect and kindness.

Great and short Western-Show!

I love the simplicity of this show. The message in this ep is still true: Do what you love, be where your talents are needed, and be assured the love of those around you when its true stays with you through good and bad times.

Doing it the proper way.

That sucks, I feel sad with Riley

What a cute episode! I can see the beginnings of Ralph Kramden!

I think the rcmp uniform is Very beautiful

The lovely Doris Singelton! One of Lucies favorite acters and a good fried to her.

Doris Singleton was a fun character actress who had an outstanding career, beginning with radio. I loved her as Carolyn Appleby on “I Love Lucy. I was fortunate enough to meet her during the late 1990s. She still had that unique sounding almost breathy voice.

Who has the crown, is it Queen Victoria?

What a revoltin' development this is!

Is the guy who played Digby O'Dell the same one who played him on the radio?

A foreshadowing of Ralph Kramden at 11:45.

I like the minimalist theme song.

Thank you for putting this episode in focus!

I love this show. Ty for posting.

Wazzup from Hanford site 😊!

If implied your stupid chances are you are STUPID

Never knew he was on television.

😎I must be the corniest guy in the world because I loved this show when it was new and still love it today. Cummings had the best delivery and wasn't afraid to play the fool. Just great stuff. Thanks so much for posting this. Cheers!🎥

Douglas fowley plays the whisting bandit nice!!!!

Swimsuits back then where sure different.

Cool at end was actor Martin milner!!!

Didn't know you could smoke in a hospital??

What a mistake, too pretty for a maid!!!

Great show can't make classics like this today!!

I want a Birdie! She is the best, and would make my family perfect!

Wish I could find unedited copies of these

I've been binge watching this. I wasn't born until 63. This is such a great show. 😂

Per the IMDb, Lanny Rees (Junior) turned 17 in 1950, the year of this episode - and Ann Burr (Marilyn, Junior's date), 30. And yet the actress you find on a Google Image search for Anne Burr (the Anne Burr at the IMDb used Ann as well), from 1950s soap operas, looks nothing like young Marilyn from "Life of Riley" here. And there is a page at the IMDb for Ann Burr proper (not Anne) that is blank. Help!

One of my favorite scenes in television history: Marilyn: Junior, tomorrow you are to go back to school ... Junior (looks about sheepishly, resigned): ... Yes, Marilyn. The episode might have been titled "Junior in the Honey Trap."

Funniest line, as the just-delivered Mrs. Bennett is talking about her twin baby daughters and Riley, already in a panic over his to-be extracted tonsils, thinks she is talking about her own, post-op: "My husband can't wait to get home each night and play with them!" Let us pay tribute there to Marlo Dwyer (1915-1999), who also, in Episode 9, played the teacher in "Junior Falls for Teacher". Her screen credits, per the IMDb, range from her playing a Gold Digger in "Gold Diggers of 1933" to an episode of the TV drama "Medic" in 1955.

I remember this one. Thank you for Sharing.

I don’t want to dance OR play baseball; I want to do just what I’m doing right now; namely, listening to great gildersleeve and generally reminiscing.

Loved it

THANKS 👍👍👍👍👍

Love this season 1 💕

Peg Riley: "My father let me decide who I wanted to go around with." Chester A. Riley: "Yes. And he's sorry to this day!"

I like to listen to this on the radio

This episode is awesome! They are great dudes for sticking with that poor dude freaking out about his baby. People just aren't like that anymore. Too many snakes , can't trust anyone :( I lived in a small town where it felt like a 20 year timejump to the past and I was lucky enough to experience some small-town charming neighborly acts. It still exists!!!

👽 Luv me some Topper . . . 🌵

GREAT FILM THESE HELP TO KEEP ME SANE IN THESE HORRIBLE TIMES-WELL AMOST HA HA

Im a huge Jackie Gleason fan, and grew in the 80s and 90s. Yhe Honey Mooners used to come on regular TV programing late at night during summer break. That's when I become a huge fan. I've never seen this, and it's a gem! Thank you!

I love how the attorney (Mr. Dithers) gets annoyed at Chan's platitudes. 😃

Thank you for posting these episodes without commercials

Old Guilders is an old school playa 🤣🤣🤣.
