It's June 11th 2021 and thank God for MeTV!! MTS it's on every morning here in the North Bay, California... And I don't ever miss this show. I even go as far as to taping each episode and I'm now into when Chip eloped with Polly! This is the only show that brings me such comfort & joy in a crazy world we're all living in now... I'm ten years younger or so then Chip (Stanley Livingston...) So when I see him at age 12 or so I was just a baby LOL, but when I was five, six years old... I had the biggest CRUSH on Chip! I've NEVER told ANYBODY that (blushing) but anyway, thank you guys for posting THIS and all of you fellas making thousands of us happy viewers and STILL to this day! Also sadly Don Grady who was awesome as Robbie... Rest in peace and thank you. 🙏💜🌹🍀

I used to love the later seasons better, but that was before I saw the first 5 seasons. Now the last 7 seasons aren’t the same without them. I hate how they were completely written out and never mentioned again after they left the show. It’s like Mike never existed. Steve said Robbie was his oldest son in the later seasons. How can you forget your first born son? When Don Grady left the series and didn’t appear in season 12 he was still mentioned. He wasn’t written out completely.

Mr. Considine married twice had a son and grandchild by his 2nd wife (who stayed married to him 44 years until his 2022 death) . As for his professional life, he became car racing aficionado to such an extent that he wrote gigantic scholarly books about the history of auto racing. Yet despite his proven writing ability (unlike his onetime colleagues Barry Livingston and Tina Cole- as well as his own 1st wife Charlotte Stewart), he never seemed to consider writing his autobio or anything about his earlier performing career!

I believe it's likely they had at least some inkling but out of respect for his wishes and family's privacy, they opted to downplay his serious [and ultimately fatal] condition during this interview! What's astonishing is even just a few months before his death in 2012 at age 68 after a four-year struggle with myeloma, he STILL looked like a healthy man in his mid-30's with a full head of hair who could have passed for his 'kid brothers' son!

@@m.e.d.7997 Yeah they must be good actors if they could remember all those lines in only a couple of days rehearsing. Since they shot the show the way they did, shooting scenes from 10-15 episodes per day that’s a lot of lines to remember. And how 9 year old Stanley Livingston AKA Chip remembered all those lines the first season I have no clue. I don’t think I could do it and I’m an adult, I guess starting young is how you do it. It was so sad when William Frawley had to leave the show and sad that he died a year later.

@@veryfungamesawesome Stan mentioned once that the producer on the show the first year or maybe it was the director strived for perfection in the scenes to get things just the way he felt they should be. Often there would be take after take after take, but it does show in that first year because the episodes were flawless all around. I got the impression it was not their acting solely, but the setting, timing, lighting, expressions etc he wanted to be just right and authentic. This person left though after the first year. Peter Tewksbury left after the first year so maybe it was him. I noticed the boys fought more in the first year too but that certainly was an authentic picture of a bunch of young brothers or sisters for that matter.

To be fair, while Lucy and the others had all worked lengthy careers in motion pictures, they were NOT as big 'stars' as Mr. MacMurray when they started their shows as when he started his. And while Doris Day WAS as big a star as Mr. MacMurray, she didn't start doing her sitcom until 1968- eight years after he'd gotten his start! Of course in Miss Day's case, she wouldn't have done it but for the dual reasons that her late 3rd husband had signed her up for it without her knowledge AND had blown her entire fortune so she needed the money FAST!

You are correct in that Stanley was not in every episode during the last few years of the show. However, he was the only "son" in all twelve seasons of the show. Tim left after the first CBS episode (also the first color episode). Don Grady left after Season 11, even though his name remained in the opening credits. Barry, of course, arrived during Season 4, but did not become a "son" until Season 6 right after Tim left.
@veryfungamesawesome3 жыл бұрын
He wasn’t. He started appearing less often in Season 11 because I think the show’s focus was Dodie for some reason. He didn’t appear for 4-5 episodes in a row in Season 11. And in Season 12 I think he only appeared in 4 or 5 episodes. But the 1st 10 seasons I think he appeared in every episode or close to every episode. I’m currently binge watching the show starting with season 1 and so far he’s appeared in every episode even if it’s a brief appearance.
