myLot reputation of 93/100. winterose (18782)   ranked 476 out of 26,920 in people 4 years ago

the 1950's was a great time for TV, kids were respectful and wives and husband's got along,

okay maybe it was a fairytale and not reality but they shows had wholesome values, which is more than I can say for most of the tv programming of today.

If I could live the tv life of of a show on tv,

I would love to be Jane Wyatt in fathers knows best, I think that Robert Cummings was the greatest husband and dad.

which show would love to live in and what person would you love to be in that show?

This is a good question. You are so right about the family values on TV going down hill. I grew up on the show Full House, and I would pick that one and be D.J. (a girl), except the girls on the show had no mom. And I don't care how many other people they had, I would want my mom, even if it is a hypothetical question. : ) So I would pick the Huxtable clain on The Cosby Show. The parents were beyond patient, they never had unrealistic expectations for their children, they matched humor with reality, and they were cared for, the children. And the parents weren't treated as if they were the inexperienced people.

Hey I would live in the Simpson's family if I could pick any family on television either that or the family of Will Smiths but at this time I can think of the name of that family.

Oh my Goodness no thinking goes into this. I would want to be in the family of Bonanza. I'd have to be little joes wife. Like as if Micheal Landon would have ever been interested in a deal like that. But OOOOLAlalalala.


myLot reputation of 93/100. winterose (18782)   ranked 476 out of 26,920 in people  4 years ago

droolGrandma, shame on youdrool
That is a drool in case you can't tell.. I do believe Michael Landon could have had his pick of many of us younger girls and with no questions asked.. Just 5 minutes with him and I could have died happy..

If I could live in any tv family, I would have to say the Cosby Show. I love watching the show, and how everyone comes together. Bill Cosby played a wonderful dad, and had funny moments. It's hard finding a show today that has good family values. I would like to be Vanessa in the Cosby Show. She wasn't the youngest or the oldest, just like me, a middle child.


myLot reputation of 93/100. winterose (18782)   ranked 476 out of 26,920 in people  4 years ago

yep it is hard finding a good show today that is why I chose one from the 50's

You are probably gonna think this is funny, but I would have loved to live in Mama's Family for a while. She cracks me up. She kind of reminds me of my grandma in a lot of wasy with the way that she is so funny but she really isn't trying to be.


myLot reputation of 97/100. tyc415 (4490)   ranked 683 out of 26,920 in people  4 years ago

Good one, that would be fun to have been part of that wild family at times. hahaha


myLot reputation of 93/100. winterose (18782)   ranked 476 out of 26,920 in people  4 years ago

yes it is funny and they really are good people in that family, not one I would have thought of but a good one too.

I used to love all these shows too, Happys Days with the Fonz and The Brady Bunch. I think though that I would like to be the lady that plays the witch in Bewitched. I'd like to put some magic into peoples lives. Ellie :D


myLot reputation of 93/100. winterose (18782)   ranked 476 out of 26,920 in people  4 years ago

You know I thought of Samantha Montgomery too in betwitched, but since I already come from a dysfunctional family, I just wanted something normal, like father knows best, and since I never had a father figure growing up, I used to think as a little girl that he should have been my father.


myLot reputation of 95/100. ellie333 (8050)   ranked 63 out of 26,920 in people  4 years ago

I can understand where you are coming from on your choice. Ellie :D

Good question but hard to answer for me. There are several that would be nice to have grown up in. I had forgotten about Father Knows Best but that would be a good family to live with or Leave it to Beaver with the Cleavers or even with the Cunningham's in Happy Days. I think Happy Days is more realistic or at least back in it's time. It would have been a riot to live in the house/apt. with Lucy and Ricky. hahahaha


myLot reputation of 93/100. winterose (18782)   ranked 476 out of 26,920 in people  4 years ago

I thought of lucy and ricky too, but they were a bit to crazy for my liking lol.

In the 50's a lot of it was real and not fairytale.. I was a young girl in the 50's and a lot of what you saw on the shows was the way life was lived for real.. Some of it was sugar coated in the fact that kids were not the complete angels that some of them were portrayed to be, you were normal kids and got into trouble but your punishment was justifiable and fair.. There were trouble makers but they were not as bad as the troublemakers of today.. I loved the simpler times, I felt safe growing up, my mom was at home and my dad worked until he got too sick to work and passed away when I was 16.. But I had many friends whose dad worked and whose mother stayed home and cooked and cleaned and planned the Bridge parties for the evening... I remember a lot of these times and I do love the memories.. I married in 1968 and lived a portion of my earlier life in this manner.. It was truly a simpler, nicer, quieter time.. So many things were different from today.. I am not sure which TV family that I would live with I do lean towards Leave it to Beaver..


myLot reputation of 93/100. winterose (18782)   ranked 476 out of 26,920 in people  4 years ago

that was my point, the kids were close to angels etc, and that does work for a segment of society but even back in the 50's not for all society. In quebec where I live the girls still got pregnant but in stead of staying home and showing they were sent to boarding school run by nuns until their babies were born and then came home without the baby as if nothing happened.

I like the life fathers knows best, I never knew it.I was born in 1955 and didn't even live with a mother or father but shipped off to a grandmother, I had no father figure, that is why I wished as a child that Robert Cummings was my father.


myLot reputation of 97/100. DonnaLawson (2806)   ranked 4,553 out of 26,920 in people  4 years ago

That is so sad, that you didn't have a mother of father.. But you can be thankful for the grandmother taking care of you.. I can't imagine not having my parents for as long as I did.. My mom passed away about 15 months ago and she was 90 yrs and 1 month old exactly, but my dad passed away in 1963, when I was only 16, that was rough.. When I was going to school in the 60's, no girl ever dared to "go all the way", if you did, you were a tramp and talked about, in very hushed tones, by everyone.. If you did "go all the way" and got pregnant you were shipped to a girls home, you know the one where you whispered about it if you even passed it while driving.. It was set back from the road and run by some church, but I never heard anyone talk about it in their normal voices, just in whispered voices and we weren't even that close to it as we passed while driving down the road.. And you neveer had the opportunity to keep and raise your child, the parents made that decision for you..

As far as the boys were concerned, they did try and take advantage of the "bad" girls, the ones that were supposed to have a "bad" reputation, but the "good" girls were not bothered that much.. They openly dated the "good" girls and secretly dated the "bad" girls.. The "bad" girls were secretly stared at by the "good" girls and secretly admired by the "good" girls, because they had the nerve to do things the "good" girls never had the nerve to do.. It was a really good time to grow up but not a perfect time.. I would not change it for the world..

Another one that I had forgotten about was Happy Days, it was as real as you can get, I did live more in that era than in the Leave it to Beaver era, I did do a lot of the things that went on in Happy Days, It was real..


myLot reputation of 93/100. winterose (18782)   ranked 476 out of 26,920 in people  4 years ago

well I didn't relate to being a teenager int the fifties cause I wasn't so that 70's show was more the teenage life that I knew. I could relate to the kids but not to the parents though,
