Or if she really had taken the Mrs. Robinson role as legend would have you believe she had the opportunity to. I heard her interviewed last year on NPR and she still displayed a tremdous amount of charm at almost 90.

TV sitcoms were mostly silly in those days.</i><br /><br />I briefly considered not approving this comment because the individual taking me to task for the essay lacked the courage of his/her convictions to sign their name. Since <i>TDOY</i> doesn’t have a “no anonymous comments” policy, I went ahead and allowed this gutless entry to stand. (The anonymity of the Internets is a wonder.)<br /><br />It sounds as if this is your first visit here, so let me clue you in on what <b><i>Doris Day(s)</i></b> is all about. It’s about poking fun at a sitcom from yesteryear. Not a silly sitcom, because I enjoy silly. <b><i>The Doris Day Show</i></b> is a bland sitcom. I mean, <i>bland</i>. You could dump several gallons of bottled McIlhenny into that baby and you’d still say, “You know, this could use something to give it a kick…”<br /><br />Doris Day shouldn’t get a pass because she’s “charming.” Ferchrissake, her character loses both her kids in season four and she’s completely unfazed by this—even when someone asked her about this change in format years after the fact, all she could prattle on about was her damn dogs. If it bothers you that I like poking fun at this cluelessness, here’s a suggestion: get over <i>yourself</i> and stop reading the feature.<br /><br /><i>Green Acres? Really???</i><br /><br />Yes, really. <b><i>Green Acres</i></b> may have been silly, but it sure as hell wasn’t bland.Ivan G Shreve Jrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04067177808320053382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7307577717655310918.post-66153841243583786172014-06-17T19:43:33.161-04:002014-06-17T19:43:33.161-04:00Get over yourself.
