It's the same thing every night.
It's like clothes agitating in a washing machine.
(Mary): This IS the washing machine! - Brian Baker
(Jack): We have it made, Mary.
Good home, good food, good furniture, good television.
I wonder how the Colemans are doing.
(Mary): We're at the Colemans! They
just took off for England! - Brian Baker
If I have to watch Fred for another second, I won't be able to eat another bite. - dj
So that's what a grass reek looks like... - Connie Pen
You know, Jack, we can sit and stare at that Bendix all day long, and the clothes aren't going to wash any faster. - dj
Fred Allen looks like death warmed over! Does he smoke Luckies? - Marie
Rochester- the picture's still snowy. Run over and turn off the fluorescent light over the Colemans' kitchen sink. - Moose Hatrack
Mary: Jack, now I can see why Dennis Day's mother took a swing at her TV and cut her hand. - Ken Busse
Rochester, turning off the light over the sink didn't help. Unplug it and plug it in backwards. - Moose Hatrack
Jack - 'Mary, don't my blue eyes stand out on television!' Mary - 'Sure, in black and white!' - MJC Australia
Something is not alright at home. - Jan-Christine Johnson
No, no that didn't fix it either. Rochester, go up on the roof and jiggle the aerial. - Moose Hatrack
I can hear the show, but all I see is Don Wilson's stomach. - Tysano
I swear, Mary. That test pattern is like watching TV through Phil Harris's eyes. - T. Opper
How dare they cut my violin solo! - Debra Lyn
I can't understant it. I remember The Horn Blows At Midnight being a laugh riot. - Lauren V.
Forget it Rochester, the problem is with the network, not our set. They're showing Love Thy Neighbor and Fred is wearing an incompatible color. - Moose Hatrack
Gee Jack, when you asked me if I wanted to have dinner and a movie with you...THIS isn't what I had in mind!!! - ~Flapsaddle
PSST Mary, how long do we have to hold this pose for that darned LIFE photographer. I want to eat my Cimeron rolls (made with the finest ingrediments) before they get stale. - Gord S. , Toronto
Mary, I think we ought to buy a TV set. I'm tired of staring at the refrigerator every evening. Especially when I'm not even on. - Thomas Rácz
Gosh, Mary, I forgot how intriguing The Horn Blows at Midnight was! - Josef Silvia
And now here's Mitch Miller to lead us all in 'When You Say Your Sorry, Then I'll Come Back To You'. - Gord S.
Mary: Jack, is this when Bob Hope's show ratings started to surpass yours? - Ken Busse
Conversation immediately preceding this photo... Jack: Gee Mary, this Bonanza is terrific. Mary: Shouldn't we be watching YOUR show? - Moose Hatrack
Jack: Is this coffee left over from the days of the
May Company; where is my Maxwell?
Mary: It's been parked in the garage for 39 years! - Ken Busse
Darn that LIFE network bug! I tell you, Mary, if something isn't done about it, on-screen grafitti will run rampant, and television will become painful and unwatchable! - Brian Baker
