Great conversation, thanks! I don't recall 'Nanny and the Professor', but I really enjoyed 'The Waltons' back in the day..... "G'night Rossiter!"

[@RossiterMeets]

That’s really nice! My pleasure! My mom was a huge fan of “Nanny and the Professor” when she was younger, so not only did I get to meet him, but my mom also got to meet him and have a little conversation with him. David Doremus had a really great career. It was so great to get to meet him and to interview him. Thank you for commenting!

Great interview. One of my all-time favorite shows. So glad this video was posted. Hal Everett was my favorite character. I would love to have the entire series on DVD. I was in love with Juliet Mills. She was so sweet. And Richard Long played a great father.

[@RossiterMeets]

Thank you so much! I’m really glad that you liked it. David Doremus was so friendly, and I really appreciated him taking the time to be interviewed. Juliet Mills was there, as well, and just as lovely as ever. Thank you again so much for your comment!

A nice interview. Thank you.

[@RossiterMeets]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate you taking the time to say that.

I loved watching him on The Waltons

[@RossiterMeets]

That was such a great show. I learned after the interview that he often appears at “Waltons” conventions. This was his first time appearing as part of a “Nanny and the Professor” reunion. Thanks for commenting!

[@dgold6891]

Great "get" and interview as well, R! So cool to find out David helped to make Nanny's magic effects happen! To this day the theme song for that show is imo one of the best in TV history, just so warm and mystical ✨

[@RossiterMeets]

Thank you! I really appreciated him sharing his time. So many theme songs from that era still resonate today. Thanks so much for the nice comments!

[@fyiaustralia9686]

This was an iconic show when I was a kid. It's amazing David had to run some of the props as well as do the acting - such a responsibility for a young teen. Good interview thanks - we mustn't forget those actors and their wonderful work no matter how small or long ago.

[@RossiterMeets]

I agree! Performers like David Doremus make many contributions to film and television, and deserve an extra round of applause. It was great to hear how much he enjoyed running the props and special effects. I really appreciated him taking the time to be interviewed. Thank you so much for the encouragement!

Thankyou.nice interview

[@RossiterMeets]

I really appreciate that! Thank you so much for commenting! David Doremus is a great guy.

I was at that Hollywood Show. I really enjoyed talking with David. What a down to earth guy. I grew up watching Nanny & The Professor. In fact I met young Trent Lehman, who played Butch on the show, back in that time. He was nice but very shy. I was very sad when he took his own life at such a young age. Nice interview. Thanks for sharing.

[@RossiterMeets]

@@goplad1 Talking with David Doremus was such a pleasure, and I really appreciated the chance to ask him all about his years on “Nanny and the Professor.” You were very fortunate to have met Trent Lehman. What a special opportunity. If you see me at the next Hollywood Show, come say hello! Thank you so much for commenting!

[@goplad1]

@@RossiterMeets I can honestly say I have been to every Hollywood Show over the last 20+ years. For me it's a tradition. I'm looking forward to the October show. Hope to see you there.

[@RossiterMeets]

@@goplad1 I’m definitely planning to go in October. I hope to see you then!

[@NotFitforPrintBeauty]

He knew at age 5? That’s so wonderful.

[@RossiterMeets]

Hi, Rebecca! I agree, that’s really interesting! He became inspired early. It was so great to get to meet David Doremus and to interview him. He was part of a really good show. Thank you for commenting!

[@gretchenarnold5977]

I watched "Nanny and the Professor" all the time and still remember the theme song. This is the first time I have heard of a 5-year-old wanting to be on TV and paying his way. He certainly is talented and hard working. I had no idea a kid would be doing those kinds of things behind the scenes. That was an interesting interview, Rossiter.

[@RossiterMeets]

Hey, Gretchen. Thank you! I was really impressed by that story, too, and I was amazed that he paid for his own SAG card. “Nanny and the Professor” was a really great show. I enjoyed getting to meet David Doremus and to interview him. I agree, he’s definitely a hard working and talented guy. Thanks for commenting!

[@atreb56]

Billy Mumy also pointed at the TV and said that he wanted to be on TV.

[@RossiterMeets]

@@atreb56 That’s really interesting! I didn’t know that. I guess some people are just meant for show biz. Thank you for commenting!

[@Albert-ez6fx]

David is very engaged in the interview!

[@RossiterMeets]

I definitely agree! He’s a really good interview subject. I really appreciated him sharing his stories. I also loved hearing him talk about getting his SAG card as a child.

[@noname-bf1ob]

I wish he had questioned David about his acting on the Waltons. That was one of my favourite shows. An opportunity lost. Wishing him well!

[@sandymarek9010]

yes I liked him as G.W.

[@RossiterMeets]

Sorry about that. I didn’t learn that he had been on “The Waltons” until after I interviewed him. Hopefully, I can interview him a second time and ask him about working on the show. Thanks for commenting!

[@RossiterMeets]

@@sandymarek9010 Thanks for checking out the video! Hopefully, I will have another chance to interview Mr. Doremus and ask him about “The Waltons.” Thank you for commenting!
