My Mother the Car (1965–1966)
10/10
1960s Vintage TV Show Deserves 10 Stars! Good Comments Here!
29 December 2022
My Mother the Car - a 1965 vintage actual classic.its to bad the negative commenters can,t see past the "Original gray shop worn Fictional Porter car" at the very beginning of the 30 episodes created!

As many commentors have stated: Alone with "The Munsters" "I Dream of Jeannie" and " The Adams Family" etc, etc - I watched the 1st episode a few days ago.

I bumped into this memory from surfing WWW factoids and accidently ran across this amazing show in a "50 Worst TV Show Review" site. As others have said - everything still looks bright and clean and fresh! From the California Solid Middle class beautiful suburban settings to the charators, the cars crisp clean color and detailing.

After pondering over the "2nd worst TV show" review - I can accross and scrolled through it all ... I actually belive this show - could have been redeemed and when way further then 30 episodes... The "Mother" should have been speaking to the full immediate family ( at the very least ) The wife and especially the 2 children, even to the family dog!

Imagine how much more creative humor, life and zany zep could have appeared - creating far more "curb appeal", and zeppy laughter!

Imagine if the writers would have stepped up the depth of the core story line: Say after about 5 or 10 episodes "Mother" (and Jerry too LoL) come out of the shyness and "Mothers" blossoms out of reserved shyness to speak wife wife and the 2 children! Granted - "Mother" only speaks as time goes by - to them and Jerry - not any others - imagine the secrets the children would share with only "Mother" as imaginative children can be - and they and Mother share secrets only between each other -- etc - example - how much more they could have spun this to be - instead of only between Jerry and Mother!
