The Dick Van Dyke Show - Season 5, Episode 28 - You Ought to Be in Pictures - Full Episode

[@daleupthegrove6396]

Fun Fact: The head waiter was played by Frank Adamo. When this show was on Nick at Nite's lineup they had something called the Adamo Watch that encouraged viewers to be on the lookout for whenever he appeared. Frank Adamo was not an actor, he was Dick Van Dyke's personal assistant and a close friend so Van Dyke would get him parts as a minor character or an extra.

He was also a great modern poet famed for his work Lavender Lollipopths

[@amierichan7231]

He actually was an aspiring actor, and DVD made sure he got occasional roles in the show

[@judilehman1481]

Dick was on Broadway in production of Bye Bye Birdie with Chita Rivera...the names are so close.

[@kimberlyhughes6807]

Michael Constantine played Michael Cooper in an episode called “ I am Curious Cooper” in a Mary Tyler Moore show! He must have had so much fun working with her on both shows!

[@billyfoster3223]

Great episode!😁👍

[@willmorris8334]

That's good Rob couldn't get comfortable kissing his co-star. When Laura played Cleopatra, she looked like she was enjoying the kissing part.

[@paulamalone1382]

Rose Marie always looked older than her age in the show. Even still, the cast was always great.

Dick Van Dyke does another convincing English accent. So convincing that someone had to point out the fact that he was using an English accent.

Now you have to post the outtake from the scene in the living room when Rob does it while crying...almost wish they had gone with that take

[@jessicacahen2040]

The actress’s last name in the sketch is Rose Marie’s real life name!

Michael Constadine from "Room 222"

Laura’s is always the voice of reason.

[@johnfoster4244]

This might be the actress who had a very brief role in, "Coast to Coast Big Mouth"

[@stevemahoney1733]

Laura's dialogue sure doesn't sound nearly as oppressed as feminists make the era out to be

[@amierichan7231]

Women could not get their own credit card or mortgage in those days. Yeah, it was pretty oppressive. And let's not forget the line only a few years earlier, where he tells her to obey him (Washington and the Bunny).

[@stevemahoney1733]

@@amierichan7231 True....how about the suffergettes who wanted the right to vote but not to be drafted or do the fire brigade as a result of the right to vote? Women think the Titanic movie was romantic, men thought it was a horror movie..why? cause all the men pushed the life boats away to safety & died. Are we really going to play the oppressed game? Remember Michelle Obama asking that all those female school girls be released in Africa? Did you forget that all the school boys were slaughtered?

[@Tmanaz480]

They were a modern couple from the Pepsi Generation. I grew up in that era, and my folks were more like this, but there were plenty of old-fashioned couples in our neighborhood.

[@mattcarroll5603]

In this episode, DVD is an actor pretending to be a writer who's trying to be an actor. 🙃

[@lynettepalecek3141]

Rob Petrie was hilarious because he couldn't get comfortable kissing his co-star. That of course, was great because it showed that he really loved his wife Laura.

[@MrMenefrego1]

Love is the strongest bond.

[@lynettepalecek3141]

@@MrMenefrego1 That's right. Rob showed his unconditional love for his wife. If I ever get married, I would want my husband to do that to me.

[@Mrcool19771]

Terrible episode. They were running out of ideas .

[@DanielLiebert-i1p]

This and the Twizzle were the most hated by the cast themselves. Van Dyke hated the 'Bad Old Days' episode in which in a dream he is an old fashioned father and husband mistreating his family. Even in a dream he REALLY didn't like playing it.

WHAT A PHONY...........LAURA HAS NOTHING TO BE JEALOUS ABOUT.

"PHONY??", She was gorgeous! And 100% genuine female; nothing "phony" about her.

I'm very glad I'm in the faith I'm in; no man in our faith would ever kiss a woman who isn't his wife---even my minister, one of the finest men I've ever known, only lets his daughters kiss him on the cheek. We take God seriously when He said the MAN and WOMAN were to cleave to each other, and not to 'others.' I'm done with this show now; after 60+ years of watching it, I've come to realize just how much of a wimp the script writers always made "Rob" to be, and how cowardly they made him be when he, if it was real life, would and should stand firm in his convictions. The lying, deceit, cringe-worthy behaviors, timidity when it wasn't warranted (among all the scripts for all the actors)....it's just not funny anymore.
