Carol Wayne - Love, American Style The Executive & the Secretary

[@sugarjoe50]

Paul Lynde may have gone straight after meeting Carol Wayne!

[@MasonBrumseymeisu88]

They were in another show together for one episode. I just finished watching an episode of Bewitched where Uncle Arthur (Paul Lynde) turned Tabitha's rabbit into a woman (Carol Wayne).

[@AcmeRacing]

I just saw the same clip this morning, so YT must have thought we'd all like this one too. The Bewitched clip also had Bernie Kopell, who played at least two other characters on Bewitched.

Carol could turn a homo straight.

Lol. Either way, the guy was hilarious. Amazing comedic timing.

I thought Paul was fabulous. I always mimiced his voice. He was super funny. I bet he's still making people laugh in Heaven.

Actually Carol Wayne was amazing! She actually was a really good actress in my opinion but was continually type cast as the dumb blonde. Either way you look at it she certainly fulfilled many boys and men's fantasies. It's too bad that her life was cut short due to weird circumstances. Believe me she would have been a sexy woman in her eighties, just like Barbra Eden!!!

Okay. What were those "weird circumstances"?

[@im1who84u]

@@ceasarandrepont1243 The short story, you’ll need to look up the details if you’re interested. I am not going to do all of your homework for you. After the cancellation of the _Matinee Lady_ on The Tonight show her career took a nosedive and she fell on hard times. She hired herself out as a high end _escort_ for dinners, international vacations…. She got hooked up with a car salesman that paid her to be his _companion_ on vacation to someplace in Mexico. While there they had an argument, and she disappeared. The next day he packs up his stuff and hers and checks out of the hotel without her and leaves her stuff at the front desk and flies back to the U.S. without her. Her body is found floating near a beach and the authorities are called. He is suspected but is cleared. Interesting note about the guy. Earlier he was married to Art Linkletter’s daughter, and she allegedly jumped off a balcony to her death. He was also cleared of that. Both deaths were very suspicious, but they were not able pin either on him.

[@randallkarlin4115]

@@ceasarandrepont1243 she died on a trip to Mexico by some producer. I thought was very strange. My opinion! it also involves her drowning on a boat ride with this producer.

I was a teenager when this was first aired. Our family parked ourselves under the color portable TV, adjusted the channel, and the antennae....

[@michellepost3098]

Always watched this as a child, when new. I can still recall some of the eps. I always liked Paul Lynde's sitcom of the 1970s. General Clayton from MASH is Paul's boss on this.

Herb Voland as Brigadier General Crandall Clayton, not to be confused with Robert F Simon as General Maynard M Mitchell.

I can remember being a very little girl and watching this show late at night when I was able to stay awake.

I watched this as a teenager!! You must be a bit younger than me. This brings me right back into the teenage years in my mind! Sometimes it’s nice to go there these days.I ❤❤

[@alwayswondering4051]

Loved this as a kid. In a way, I think this was the best thing on TV. It was light-hearted and so much fun. Those clothes, wow. They were outrageous. I remember when bell-bottom pants showed up in the later 60's. A real statement - in the beginning. Thing was though, after a while you couldn't find a pair of pants anywhere that weren't bell bottomed ! I hope I'm wrong, but I don't think that the craziness of the 60's will ever come around again. Shame. A rare time when complete inocense was so stark-driven guilty. What a blast.

[@avecmoi9429]

Yes, a happier time for sure. thanks

[@jacquelinerussell8530]

Yes i agree I was about ten when the show was the one to watch And i remember wearing bell bottoms and elephant pants

I tuned in for Carol Wayne but stayed for Joey Heatherton. Great to see her with long hair.

[@vincentbaretti3114]

So sad. Three things Hollywood doesn't do anymore. #1, make Western TV series (and only the occasional movie remake of a classic......True Grit comes to mind ), the last of western series that were any good was Alias Smith and Jones and Gunsmoke, off the air since 1973 and 75 respectively. #2, Variety Shows. I don't count AGT or American Idol with a panel of judges and singing or other acts by armatures. I mean a show hosted by one person like The Dean Martin Show, Andy Williams or The Glen Campbell Good Time Hour or two people like The Sonny and Cher Show where the host would sing, have guests/groups/duos that would sing, plus comedy skits and a special Christmas show during the holiday season. #3, Vignette shows like this. LAS and another vignette show that was on at the same time, Night Gallery, hosted by Rod Serling, were the last of the vignette shows. All 3 styles of shows are gone because America has changed so much, and judging from the crap that's on TV these days, proof that the change isn't always for the better. Just MHO...…..

[@eduardo_corrochio]

While there are more ways than ever to have TV come into our homes and lives, we really have to pan for gold a lot to find the good stuff. And I agree, it's too bad we don't have those types of shows any longer. The Carol Burnett Show and its ilk (The Cher Show, etc) was so good back in the 70's. But for every gem we had huge duds-- such as The Brady Bunch Variety Hour, which stunk to high heaven. I'd rather watch The Donny and Marie Show, and that's not much better. You mentioned anthology/vignette series, and Night Gallery was a favorite of mine; I still like watching it on DVD. Of course it's not of the caliber of Mr. Serling's earlier anthology program, but it's still a hoot. Some Night Gallery episodes were so memorable: The Caterpillar, The Doll, Green Fingers, Cool Air. Plus, in the 70's we also had a couple of spooky hour-long shows like Ghost Story (aka Circle of Fear) which was often hit or miss but always a class act with cool guest stars like Bill Bixby or Karen Black. It's nice that some of these classic shows are available on KZbin. I often will watch a vintage sitcom or variety show, or a British sitcom like Are You Being Served.

[@eduardo_corrochio]

@Lance Lanny It seems that each generation has its golden era-- that we'd love to visit again as it was. And that feeling/notion is very _Twilight Zone_ (like the episode Walking Distance, where the businessman suddenly finds himself in summer in his home town when he was a tween).

[@larrymead5911]

That's why I no longer own a TV.

[@DavidChrisCastillo-im1wg]

1969-1974 like the Brady Bunch. I miss those telephones. Anyway, if I had become a commerce executive functioning in an office handling accounts & orders, I'd probably manufacture unintended errors & produce delays as this business executive did if I also had a sexy secretary to also deal with as an added distraction. So, I comprehend his problems. I couldn't perform duties under those circumstances any better either. I remember Paul Lynne's appearance on Hollywood Squares as being the middle 1. I also think Carol Wayne appeared a few times on Hollywood Squares when Peter Marshall used to host it. I wonder if Carol Wayne was related to legendary actor John Wayne (The Duke).
