Carl Reiner's 10 Favorite Dick Van Dyke Show Episodes

[@garygesell1675]

Not that I'm profiling anybody, but if someone gives a thumbs-down to Carl Reiner you definitely are not of this planet

[@kathygaither5746]

He was insane!! 😅😅

[@ThrowbackDrummer]

Fun fact about “That’s My Boy”. Carl Reiner almost quit during that episode. Because the network didn’t think the ending when the black couple comes in would go over well and told him to take it out. He refused and said if it didn’t run as planned he would leave. It turned out to be one of the funniest moments in the show and the longest laugh from the audience. Needless to say Carl Reiner was ahead of his time. An absolute genius!

Carl Reiner, one of the best

[@JEL888]

Ghost of A. Chantz is the funniest ever.

[@cmm2145]

It is! It’s one of my favorites. Just seeing the few seconds clip at the beginning with Rob and Buddy on the hide a bed watching the door slowly close by itself sent me into howling laughter.

[@TheEllmad]

Yes - LOVE Carl Reiner and the Duck Van Dyke show! He was one of the best! ❤ They don’t make them like that anymore ❤ RIP

[@cherryleegee1182]

You can’t get it any better than this. This is one of the best sitcom’s ever. My favorite is the inflatable boat episode. I do have to admit being a woman giving a woman’s perspective we do have high curiosity and it does get the better of us every now and then. But it does not get as hilarious as when it got the better of Laura. The first time I discovered the Dick Van Dyke show was on Nick at night. That was when Nick at night was at its best in the 90s and early 2000s. But all in all I do have to think Carl Reiner for creating such a wonderful show. God bless you Carl we miss you. Thanks so much for posting the video it is greatly appreciated. Everyone take care, take it easy and be safe

[@rhondabooboo2791]

Show featuring Carl as sheriff and his dying scene is hilarious! What a genius, he will forever be my favorite. RIP kind sir.

[@phyllisryba5353]

I think the Dick Van Dyke Show was 1 of the best achievements of Carl Reiners. Besides the gift he may have given his wife & kids a great life as a husband & a father.

[@FactsVerse]

Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. Which episode is the most memorable for you?

[@cmm2145]

I wasn’t planning on being critical of the mistakes in this one, but there’s one mistake I must point out. So I’ll point out the others too. You say that Lyle Delp is a former convict and then you say he’s a guard. He is neither of those things. He is still an inmate doing his time for the attempted robbery of Rob and Laura. I think that he is part of the entertainment committee, but he is still definitely an inmate. He’s even wearing an inmate’s uniform. You keep saying “Peetrees”. It’s spelled “Petrie” and pronounced “Pet-ree”. The “e” in the first syllable is a short “e”. Here’s the BIG one. In the episode That’s My Boy? you said that Rob thinks the hospital gave them the wrong baby and in the end, he’s right. NOOOOOOO!!!!! So much NO! Rob does think the hospital gave them the wrong baby. The hospital was busy and Laura is either in room 203 or 208. I’m not sure which. Whichever room Laura is in, there’s a lady with the last name Peters in the other one. Laura and Mrs. Peters had a baby boy on the same day and the hospital keeps mixing them up giving Laura Mrs. Peters’ things and vice versa. Rob thinks the hospital accidentally switched the babies because the hospital was busy and there is a similarity between Peters and Petrie and between 203 and 208 and both had baby boys on the same day. Eventually Rob calls Mr Peters because the hospital mixed up a couple of gifts so they need to exchange them and Rob tells Mr. Peters that he thinks the babies were switched. Mr and Mrs Peters come over. Rob opens the door and finds out that Mr. and Mrs. Peters are Black, so obviously there was no baby switching.

In "Never bathe on a Sunday" the gunshot does open the door.

[@thriveguy007]

Lol! It’s well done but this guy does not know much about the show

[@lindajohnson4204]

I love the fact that, while Richie doesn't look much like Rob or Laura (a little like Laura in the eyes), he does resemble Rob Reiner quite a bit.

[@starshiptrooper2354]

He was comic genius and great humanitarian. Will miss him and his tweets

[@sharone.langley2923]

Rob and Laurie didn't bring home the wrong baby. They met the Peters' (a Black couple) and got it all cleared up.

[@Barnabas45]

Exactly, And their last name wasn't pronounced Peetrie!

[@thriveguy007]

This guy does not have a lot of the facts straight. Lol

[@oldsesalt8496]

@@thriveguy007 He's obviously not a fan.

[@STho205]

He is purposefully trying not to give away the punch line in most of these... Except the walnut dream and big toe.

[@georgewilson1184]

My favorite the haunted cabin and the toy manufacturer in Robs building when they built a UFO and my favorite character was Buddy Sorrel played by the Great Morey Ampsterdam

[@phyllisryba5353]

Carl Reiners crowning achievements to me, (besides a loving marriage to Estelle & bringing their children into the world) is the Dick Van Dyke Show. TV these days is not as good w/ acting & comedy as it was years ago. I myself can truly say that The Dick Van Dyke Show is a classic! Certain parts of our life & world were kept out of the show. Which caused that show to be as great as it was. Concerning life & comedy.

[@docadams7099]

"The Dick Van Dyke Show" is my all-time favorite comedy. Its humor is wonderful.

[@oldsesalt8496]

Loved him on two and a half men. (and everything else.)

[@joycelunsford5614]

I feel good that most of Carl's favs are also my favorites too. However if I were famous and died and somebody cared what my favorite episodes were, "Too many stars", (Rob's hilarious mocking of Laura's dance routine Episode #68), "Like a sister", (Guest star is Vic Damon Episode #38). "The Alan Brady Show Presents" (Christmas Show featuring song "Toy Soldiers" Episode #75), "One Hundred Terrible Hours" (Flashback of Rob's first meeting with Alan Brady Episode #124) and "The Great Petri Fortune" (Rob inherited a uncle's desk Episode #133), "The Ghost of A. Chance" (The guys spend the night in a rustic lodge Episode #96), will also be included.

[@francisunger170]

It was interesting to see Don Rickles among the other players.

[@Drrezzin]

The Petrie name is pronounced with a short e, not a long e.

[@joekienlen7439]

bot it was pronounced with a long e in the pilot.

[@westzed23]

Did anyone see the X-Files episode when Mulder and Scully go undercover as a married couple? Mulder picks their names: Rob and Laura Petrie, but pronounced peetrie like the dish.

[@markcadieux3445]

@@joekienlen7439 But with a short e throughout the series.

[@Noomz-of-Earl]

It was supposed to have been pronounced PEE TREE, but Dick Van Dyke kept pronouncing it PET TREE, and Carl Reiner decided that was better.

[@gregh7400]

Would have been better if you showed the actual clips instead of telling about them.

[@brianthomas2434]

Clearly he wanted to keep the surprise...after over fifty years.

[@joannagonzales3127]

I hoped that you would had just played the clips. Without the commentary 😊

Me, too... A quick summary, then the main clips... Lol

Damn shut up and let it play

[@puppycat58]

Definitely the dick van dyke show....one of my favorites is when Laura meets Robs parents for the first time...when she took millies pills ....I laughed so hard tears were rolling down my cheeks...

[@c.d.macaulay66]

PEE-trie!!!??? If you’re gonna do a DVD tribute, get the family name right. Pink Pills for Purple Patients and Body and Sol are hilarious too.

[@mpwall123]

The clips where in colour? Where they initially filmed in colour?

[@Barnabas45]

There were No colored episodes, Although Ted Turner was notorious for colorizing many classic B/W TV shows!

[@garymullis3640]

Loud mouth coast to coast is greatest in my humble opinion.

[@anthonya1151]

I loved him as Sarmoti in Father of the Pride.

[@bettychatfield1928]

That's my boy ends with the couple he thought had his baby was black, so there was no switch. It was famous for showing a black couple as middle class

[@jason60chev]

"Shut up, Mel!"

Those were Carl's last words.

[@graymoreghost]

How do you do a video about The DVD Show and you don't even know how to pronounce the character's last name?

[@MXEthatguy]

Sry I don't think I heard of him before but r.i.p.

How can this be Facts Verse with so many mistakes?

[@ellisullom1424]

A lot of mistakes as far as the narrator's details describing the episodes.

[@rocky-o]

love your videos..however you do tend to get a few facts wrong...besides the pronunciation of rob and laura's last name, in the episode 'that's my boy', it turned out rob was wrong...they had the right baby all along....

[@thriveguy007]

Get your facts straight and the pronunciation of Petrie... smh
