When I was a girl, TV movies had hosts. Bill Kennedy was the movie host for the Detroit area. I remember seeing this movie just once some time in the late 60's, but I never forgot it. I still remember the scene when Ruth kisses her beau, and tells him to remember this was his first kiss from an actress. It was pure joy!

The Debbie Reynolds Show
(1969–1970)
A woman with convictions!
2 August 2002
What I remember about "The Debbie Reynolds Show" is that the first sponsor for the show was a cigarette company. Ms. Reynolds felt that cigarettes were NOT the way to promote a family show, and she threatened to quit rather than give in to the sponsors. The powers that be gave in to her demands, and I think Hunts Catsup sponsored the show. I never forgot that. She was a woman of convictions and I admired her for it.

I loved it!

Although I haven't seen this film in years, it remains one of my favorites. It was goofy, quirky and an odd-ball film. Jack Lemmon wearing a paper scrub hat and hollering at the TV doctors is priceless. Peter Falk's running gag of selling things is truly a genius at work. I would love to see it again, if I can ever find it!
My Dear Secretary
(1948)
I love it!

I found this video in a dollar store one day, so I don't know if it can be found in a video store, but if you can find it, it is a lot of fun! Irene Ryan (before she was known as Granny on the Beverly Hillbillies) is funny. The running gags in this movie make this a real treat.
You Gotta Stay Happy
(1948)
I liked the movie.

I think this movie is charming. It is part farce and part whimsy. It is not a great comedy, and I don't think it was ever intended to be. It has a few stereotypical characters, but that can be fun. I have seen the movie several times. It is pure escapism.
