I don't understand this KZbin phenomenon: referring to a wildly successful person or show as "UNDERRATED." It's a joke. I think what the commenter is really saying is, "I, have been unaware of this show, or that person, and I underrated them."

Bob Newhart showed that its possible to craft good comedy without dirty jokes every two seconds. Bob Newhart had tried two other sitcoms before The Bob Newhart Show which only lasted like three episodes, so he admitted in interviews that's why he was leery at first of trying another sitcom (The Bob Newhart Show)

@MajorSeventh 3 жыл бұрын

9:53 the host (to Suzanne): "You were certainly not everybody's loving sweet supportive wife at all times." I get what she's trying to say, but watching the series again about 10 years ago I was struck by just how sweet and demonstrative Emily actually was. She didn't put up with BS, but she plainly loved Bob as a person, and not just out of a sense of duty. That made Emily even more endearing.

@Observ45er 2 жыл бұрын

@goofygrandlouis6296 2 жыл бұрын

Exactly ! That's why Suzanne corrected the host. It's clear the journalist wanted some kind of politically-correct answer about feminism. But of course since Pleshette is from a previous generation (when you actually respected your male partners).. she dodged the question and answered about Newhart's comedic timing.

@unowen-nh9ov 2 жыл бұрын

@@goofygrandlouis6296 Her academy interviews address both issues, that Pleshette as young working actress was feminist before there was a movement & that male writers couldn't really write for female character, she noticed she was getting laughs for her reactions as Emily, not for her dialogue, so once she had a lock on her character (i.e., stopped playing her like Sandra Dee with a sitcom voice, as Pleshette put it), she told the writers write for a man & I'll make the woman, certainly worked! Plus Emily was always the sane, smart, sensible calm centre to whatever craziness was going on around them. I think the interviewer is referencing that Emily was Bob's equal & partner & not a traditional passive or doormat wife in any way (Newhart himself references in another interview the episode where they learn Emily has the higher I.Q.& the writers make a great joke with that knowledge).

@malloriebrown2027 11 ай бұрын

Her character definitely had some feminist traits but I don't think you could really call her a feminist. Emily seemed to do all the cooking, cleaning and shopping. She was made up all the time. However , she had her own career and was clearly her own person as Emily Hartley. Based on interviews I've watched and quotes I've seen/read of Suzanne Pleshette herself, I don't think she's a true feminist either. Quite frankly, I find it refreshing. She seemed to enjoy doting on and caring for her husband but had her own things going on too. Seemed like a really neat lady.

"Tracy Hansford" " . . . Bob and Emily had such a wonderful marriage, and you could tell she loved him dearly!" Absolutely. When TCM put out its documentary on beloved screen legend Myrna Loy, entitled "Myrna Loy -- So Nice to Come Home To" (1991) I said surely THAT describes Suzanne Pleshette ''to a 't.'' So, "Suzanne Pleshette: -- So Nice to Come Home To" -- an apt description. 04:45 - 05:26 A rare misfire from moderator, Pat Mitchell, here in her introduction to Suzanne Pleshette: " . . . an accomplished stage, television and film star . . . what I think people sometimes forget are the DRAMATIC roles . . . "The Miracle Worker" on Broadway, Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds," and numerous television series including "8 Simple Rules [ . . . for Dating My Teenage Daughter]," "Will & Grace," "Maggie Briggs" and of course this particular show." The blunder is obvious: the four TV series are sitcoms -- NOT examples of her stellar turns guesting on acclaimed dramatic shows of the day, many of them 'hits,' e.g., "The Fugitive," (2x), Gunsmoke," "Marcus Welby, M.D.," "Cimarron Strip," "The Name of the Game" (3x), "Route 66" (2x), "Have Gun -- Will Travel," "Columbo," "Dr. Kildare" (3x), "Naked City," "Alfred Hitchcock Presents," "Bonanza," "Ironside," "Wagon Train," "Medical Center," "The Invaders" (2x), "The F.B.I." (3x) and "Run for Your Life." Any three of those respected, classy dramas would have sufficed. I've caught maybe three-fourths of her dramas, so here I offer personal candidates for a strong trio -- 'at the head of their class' -- are: "Columbo" 1971 ep. 'Dead Weight,' "The Fugitive" 1965 ep. 'All the Scared Rabbits' and "Gunsmoke" 1970 ep. 'Stark.' Honorable Mention: "The Invaders" 1967 ep. 'The Mutation.'

"The Bob Newhart Show" was the best! These guys were great! Bob is still with us - will be 94 in a few weeks. Sadly, his wife died in April. Peter Bonerz is 85. This was in Sept. 2007, just a few months later, in January, Suzanne Pleshette died, and in May, Dick Martin died. John Fielder (Mr. Peterson) died two years before this. Florida Friebus (Mrs. Lillian Bakerman) died long before this, in 1988. We lost Marcia Wallace in 2013. Jack Riley (Elliot Carlin) died in 2016. Bill Daily lived to 2018. James Burrows - "Cheers" creator - was a maintenance man on "The Bob Newhart Show". He's still kicking at 82.

Brilliant cross pollination of tv comedy history. ETA: Also Jack Riley appearing on "Newhart"...priceless.

Retaining a sense of humor through tragedy and grief is indicative of a strong person, unfortunately it's not something that I personally possess. Suzanne Pleshette did. This woman would be gone within 5 months of this reunion, had recently undergone chemotherapy, and had just recently lost her husband (Tom Poston) a few months before this reunion. Yet here she was, making jokes about burying husbands and carrying on with lighthearted stories, all the while fully aware she wouldn't be around much longer. This kind of strength is inexplicable to me. I admire and envy it simultaneously, and wish like all hell that I had it. Laughing in the face of death, especially your own, now THAT is about as courageous as it gets. Her strength and beauty was irresistible, and she had no airs about her. She was not only gorgeous, but the salt of the earth.

You're right! To some degree, she reminds me of Roz from Frasier. Peri Gilpin was sexy, low melifflous voice and very down to Earth. I should say is, not was.

@@jameswoods9238 Also, when introducing Bill Daily, seated next to, she clearly 'went up' [i.e., forgot] regarding his character's name -- settling for 'Bob and Emily's neighbor.' Overall this was a treat; it had its moments. A criticism: at the top 7 1/2 mins. spent / wasted on cast members' resumes. Surely 99.9% of viewers are fans of the series, so they have 'a pretty good idea' of the performers' credits. That time could have been devoted to more q&a, IMO. How disappointing the two professional journalists, veterans at The Hollywood Reporter and the Associated Press (wire service), couldn't come up with a well-thought-out, relevant question or two about events, incidents that transpired during the production of 142 episodes over six years.

It's so touching how emotional Bill got as he clearly valued the time spent with all his pals there. So sweet.

Like Bob, we couldn't understand why they couldn't have the reception closer to the wedding venue. I had to laugh hysterically when they told that story as it brought back memories of that incident.

Don't blame the cameramen/women, there were only two cameras. Blame the director who chose NOT to have a wide shot until maybe two-thirds into the interview. As a result, if someone breaks into the conversation, and goes on for a while, the non-live camera has to find that person before the director can cut to them. Three or four cameras would have been MUCH better, but budget is always an issue. So glad to have this on tape nonetheless!
