December 13th 2024 he'll be 99 !

They are the cutest couple ever

[@teijaflink2226]

Mary Tyler Moore was absolutely stunning in this show and Dick Van Dyke is a very funny guy.

One of the classics. Plot, script, acting and chemistry - all among the best, and timeless too.

6:35 The way his face falls when he realizes she flirted with a stranger never fails to crack me up. 😂😂😭

[@terryandjoe]

"Let me live here" and Laura's laugh when she was asked if she knew it was him from the beginning always makes me crack up

[@poetcomic1]

And an ending that's the cherry on top.

[@millions9523]

Me too🤣 keeping him wondering🤔

[@chazm3]

The way he said that line was one of the best line readings I’ve ever seen from an actor. absolute perfection. MTM is perfect, too.

[@nicolekat8758]

I love watching these earlier seasons because the announcer pronounces Ms. Moore’s last name “Mure”. And then after a while they correct him LOL

[@MrMenefrego1]

I noticed that too! You have to wonder how an announcer, who was most likely well-trained, could pronounce such a common name like Moore so incorrectly! 🙄

You're right, it does sound like Carl Reiner

[@MrMenefrego1]

What kind of a hat?

That was great. Odd how much I miss shows like this. And I'd almost forgotten how gorgeous and sexy MTM was.

It always cracks me up in the intro when he says “Mary Tyler Moo-er.” 😂

Their clothes were so fantastic back then man, so much better than the garbage we have to choose from today.

[@thomasciarlariello]

Before 1982 everything was injection molded with crystal chrome light pastels of Lucite and of course they were so formal a Sept. 1946 sci fi pulp thought it was "weird and out worldly" if a "lady wore a flight suit instead of a skirt" to remember intro to early 1960s "Jetsons" of unbounded optimism of exact roles of "nuclear families" along with colonies an ocean away and or tough neighborhood ghettos for social problems vanished due to hippie riots of 1965 to 1975 of how GI Bill often flooded marketplace with skills of few commercial industrial uses for employment while a passive aggressive victimhood welfare state offered "Bread & Circuses" via audio mob agitation of a transistor radio.

[@zoraroa]

Literally one of my favorite episodes I come back to watch it all the time 😂

[@joshuaanothereraseddad]

At the tender young age of 45, I can say there will never be any decent programs like this one, amongst others, ever again. TV today is literal rubbish.

[@oldblackstock2499]

I have no idea what is on regular TV anymore. I just watch these old shows.

[@soswezz]

11:31 That guy laughing in the background sure had a good time 😂

How you noticed how beautiful Mary looked in this episode?

[@scotnick59]

yes! = she's just stunningly gorgeous

[@jb6712]

I'm just amazed at how few men (mostly) don't realize how many truly gorgeous women were alive and acting, among other things, at the same time MTM was: Raquel Welch was far, FAR more beautiful than almost all of them; Sophia Loren was gorgeous, Tippi Hedren, Elizabeth Montgomery, Marilyn Monroe....by no means was Moore "the" most beautiful woman!

[@dovermoreno]

The opening sequence where Rob trips over the ottoman was filmed right after the filming of this episode was concluded. Buddy's grey suit and Sally's black dress and pearls in the office at 14:26...and Laura's grey skirt and sleeveless top with a broach on her left shoulder at 24:18 are identical to the clothes worn in the opening sequence!

It was called getting dressed, everyone got dressed, completely, every day.

[@CaptChrispy]

I don't understand this in some ways: 1) Laura knows it's Rob and feels he's trying to be romantic, then why when he asks about her knowing these words, does she act like she has no idea where she got them? 2) Laura thinks he's trying to play a trick on her so she's going to play it back by pretending she got a call from a stranger and not telling him about it. So she must have known he might not show up.

[@lynettepalecek3141]

Laura very obviously knew immediately, instantaneously that Rob was disguising his voice. She smiled the instant that he started to talk to her.

[@jb6712]

Unfortunately, the writers of the show very often made "Rob" to be incredibly foolish and stupid. It happened a great deal throughout the five year run of the show, as well as a lot of lying and deceit being written into the show.

I was curious to see what MTM's hairstyle was called during the early years of TDVDS; It's called "Flip". Anyway, Flip is making a comeback. According to a 2022 Harper's BAZAAR article, Flip is not only making a comeback but also being incorporated into existing modern hairstyles. So, don't be surprised if you see the 1960s Flip coming to a girl's noggin near you. 😏

[@bethb8276]

Those type of hairstyles required teasing the hair, curlers, and a lot of hairspray, I doubt it will make a comeback with the average person. I did like most of the clothing styles from back then. For both women, and men.

They didn't have Caller ID or anything like that in those days, so when Rob, pretending to be an Italian guy, said he'd call her back, Laura then knew it was he. Actually, she probably recognized his voice, even though he had disguised it.

[@tomwheeler2012]

Mary Tyler Moore is so beautiful. The DVD Show was so modern and yet traditional. Remember that at this time there was an undercurrent of the counter-culture, beatniks, hippies, drugs, open relationships/marriages, divorce, civil rights, the assassination of Kennedy, etc. This show wasnt just warm and funny and depicted a modern 1960s marriage but it also was a reassuring anchor for Americas married couples and Americas families that they could go into the future and it would be ok. People wanted that sunken living room and that midcentory modern ranch home and a happy marriage surrounded by good friends, music and laughter. Plus...look at the predecessor of the DVD Show which was "I Love Lucy" which depicted a wild out of control wife and a volatile husband reigning her in...so Rob and Laura Petrie were showing America a different kind of marriage and family....people loved DVD's talent but people were captivated by Mary Tyler Moore....much like Elizabeth Montgomery...both were the mother every child wanted...the wife every husband wanteed...the neighbor and friend everyone wanted....interesting...Mary Tyler Moore had a lot in common with her on-screen personality and her off-screen personality

[@tomwheeler2012]

Grant Tinker was a fool to let her go.

[@DyreStraits]

Do you think people also wanted separate beds?

[@randilevson9547]

Laura knew it was Rob on the phone all along. She was having fun with him.

My neighbor's kids were watching episodes of the DVD show and they were freaked out about the rotary phones that didn't take pictures or text.

[@randilevson9547]

Typical of kids today.

[@moriahw3947]

Despite the fact that Rob and Laura sleep in separate beds, I love that they normalize a husband and wife having a healthy sex life. I made this connection when I realized that (pretty daringly!) they had not one but TWO episodes (including this one) where Rob and Laura clearly are into role-play! Spicy! (the other one is "Never Bathe on a Saturday" where Rob dresses up like David Nivven for..."the cocktail hour".....)

Another more modern way to go with the ending would be to have them role play a bit face to face and enjoying it.....but that might have been a bit weird for 1960.

Dick Van Dyke sure has a problem with accents. This isn't the dumpster fire of his cockney accent in Mary Poppins....but his "Italian" accent around 5:00 sounds more Russian than Italian....or maybe Bela Lugosi?

The jackass I was married to for nine years couldn't fool me---his voice was too distinct for him to be able to change it significantly. Our son, poor guy, had the same voice as an adult (he was killed in 200). Son wasn't a jackass, just his father.
