Dorothee ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

sorry for your lost i lost my mom n my bff. my mom bday is march 5th.

Marshan Thomas - yes, deep dear loss. My parents became my friends more and more as I grew older and came to appreciate them unlike before. Dad’s been gone 5 1/2 yrs. Mom passed recently. Never the same again, but so grateful for the time I had with them. ❤️👍🏻. I’m sure you know what I mean. Sorry for your loss too, but be so thankful you had your dear mother. 😉

When I got married in 1987, my father and I danced to this song at my reception. I will never forget how handsome he looked in his tux, as dad held out his hand and said, "May I have this dance little girl"? Daddy passed away in 2002. What I wouldn't give to be in his arms right now! Oh yes!!!! I'm still daddy's little girl!!!!

+MAW KITTY Me too! She was great in the musical Singing In The Rain.

+MAW KITTY I agree. While i DO like both era's of Danny's Show, I prefer this early period. What I want to see is THE first episode of all.

I really wish they would put the whole series on DVD not just 5 and 6

I've heard of it, but the name of the show never appealed to me so I never bothered watching. I saw the first episode tonight. This, being the second episode, how come one of the kids is missing from the opening?

It was on for 11 year season 1 to 3 he was married with 2 kids Terry and Russ sorry if his name is spelled wrong then season 4 he was a widow then then season 5 to 11 she was married again and got a 5 year old stepdaughter Linda and Terry left after season 5 and only guest stared after that and the show became the Danny Thomas show

Such a joy to watch!

+Nathan Fawkes And like I love Lucy this show ALSO came from Desilu,

Hi Chris Mulwee, Make Room for Danny / The Danny Thomas Show was not produced by Desilu, although they did rent studio space from them.

The jetsons

"Make Room for Daddy" was produced at Desilu, although not by Desilu. Despite all this, it was Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz who engaged Danny Thomas for the show and it was Desilu that promoted the show to audiences. Ball and Arnaz considered it their third show. even though they didn't produce it. Danny Thomas was publicly ever-grateful to Ball and Arnaz for taking a chance on his show. That was evident in the crossover shows that Danny Thomas' tv family and thr Ricardos made on each other's shows.

You're right! I adored them both . . ..

It's the other way around since Danny came Peci.

This wife sounds a lot like his second wife. Their voice modulation is almost identical.

I wish they still did make shoes like this

+Paul Driscoll They shortened the family name from Verhagen, right?

Not siblings. Sorry.

They're not related. She was born Verhagen and shortened her name.

I have seen season 4 they don't ever mention her again it's like she was never there

Her death was just discussed on the show, and barely, at that. Having a major character die was considered a risky move for the 1950's. Divorce was never an option in an era where the word 'pregnant' was taboo and couples slept in twin beds. They were going to have Danny Williams as a single parent but the ratings slipped, so Marjorie Lord was brought on board as Kathy O'Hara, as well as her daughter, Linda.

@@pkspalding Jean Hagen just quit the show! decided it wasn't for her! Danny Thomas was Not happy! Almost ruined the whole show!!!

@@Sunny-jz3dy Yeah, no one died: she was just replaced.

@@Sunny-jz3dy Technically, it did. The fourth year was the last on ABC. The ratings were still good enough that CBS was willing to take the show. In the Fall of 1957, it was placed in the Monday 9pm timeslot where *I Love Lucy* was - it had ended in the Spring of 1957.

The series is terribly outdated.

@@Greg-re7njIt’s very wonderful and relevant.

Great question!😀

I was reading these hoping someone would know. Could be lost???

In 1956, the series became "THE DANNY THOMAS SHOW", through its final episode in 1964. Daytime repeats on NBC (1960-'65) used the "MAKE ROOM FOR DADDY" title for the 1957-'61 episodes, although several of the original "MAKE ROOM FOR DADDY" episodes were also repeated.

Terry Moore is an actress not connected to this show; 'Terry' is Danny's daughter, played by Sherry Jackson.

I don’t think it was her singing as I recall. Read something about that I think. Easily checked on IMDb or Wikipedia.

Huh? English please.

WTF?

Hello Elana, How are you doing?

Had a son, I quit.

@Rafael Felipe Really?! She looked very young here; so sad . . . .

Two actresses, and both left due to serious health issues. First, Louise Beavers, and then Amanda Randolph. They were both very talented actors and it's sad to contemplate the sort of roles African American actors were forced to play. Servants, mammies and so on. Randolph certainly did the best she could with the material given her.

Both maid were from Ohio-as well as Mr.Thomas.

Jean Hagen died of throat cancer in 1977. Make Room for Daddy turned out to be quite successful and Ms Hagen continued to star in this TV show for 3 seasons running until she left, reasons not explained but various rumors abounded that she was too tempermental to work with the cast, had several rows with her leading co-star Danny Thomas, wasn't happy the way the producers portrayed her character as being too ineffectual for her liking or was a closet alcoholic, a fact which would blight her TV/film career so her character was killed off until Marjorie Lord took over, being cast as the 2nd wife.

Died from esophogeal cancer in 1977

Hello Paula, How are you doing?

Paula Pacente: I'm not thrilled about the 21st Century so far, either. :(

@@corriecrazy- I'm quite sure there are many of us out there.

My era would have been around 1890’s then check out about 1980.

@@petegregory517- My era would have to have been a little later because my husband couldn't live without cars.

She didn't appear until season 5 - Fall 1957

She went on to play a hot android in Star Trek.

After a year a look alike actress replaced her, she eventually left the series too when they married her off to Pat Harrington. Sherry wanted to break out of being typecast as sweet little Terry, by her late teens she had blossomed into a great beauty and roles as an ingenue on such shows as 77 Sunset Strip awaited. She was great as a gun moll in one episode! Unfortunately, and ironically it being Hollywood, her incredible curves held her back as producers took one look at her and didn't take her seriously as a legit actress capable of dramatic roles. They might have had a small point, in one 77 Sunset Strip episode she played a mountain girl in pants so tight they looked painted on, she was so distracting you lost sight of the plot. That was par for the course on 77, they had the most starlets appearing in Hollywood history, but Jackson wanted a serious career. She didn't get it, but she is a fine person and you won't find negative thing said about her in Hollywood, which is rare.

She left the show after five years. Was very close to Jean Hagen, who had a three year contract and left then. Jackson wanted to leave but was held to her five year contract. In the show, she went off to college, after making a few appearances to set up an 'off to college' storyline. Penny Parker replaced her later, in order to marry her off and move to the West Coast.

I loved Jean "Lina Lamont" Hagen, and I'm sorry that she didn't get quite the career her talent deserved . . . .

No

According to the credits and common knowledge, "that girl" is Sherry Jackson.

Natalie Wood was in Miracle on 34th Street, not Sherry Jackson
