I showed my 13yr old son a few episodes of Our Gang over the past few nights. First thing he asked me was "Weren't the schools segregated back in those days?" I said I know it was law in the 40's into the 60's. Maybe this predates that law. Interesting knowing that MGM made the decision to be bold in that time! I loved this show as a kid, and the comedy holds strong today! As far as the tragic untimely deaths of the former actors, well, what can you really say? Child stars rarely enter into adulthood unscathed or without tragedy. Many of the pitfalls of being a star in the past can be avoided nowadays since the bad things have been documented and chronicled. And even with that, some people still get taken advantage of. I'm just glad that the episodes can still be viewed and enjoyed all these years later!

Willie Mae Taylor played Buckwheat in 1933, and I believe Stymie's real life sister Carlena played her once. Billie Thomas was already playing various minor roles, and assumed the role of the still-female Buckwheat in 1934. Buckwheat was first depicted as a boy in the movie "General Spanky" and on Our Gang starting with the legendary Romeo & Juliet short ("My Homeo!) The kids all called him "Bucky" or just "Buck" in real life.

Alright, I must correct you on Carl Switzer and also point out something regarding a director who worked with the kids for a couple years. Carl Switzer had a business that he ran on his own. His clients were major stars at the time. Carl was well liked. Carl averaged to work in films 2 for every year after Our Gang. It's not because he was an asshole, it's tbecause he preferred to work outdoors with his business as a hunting guide and dog breeder. He missed out on roles because of this. As for him being a bully is a bit of an exaggeration when you consider that Spanky almost set a man and studio on fire when he gave the man, who happened to be Switzer's father Fred Switzer, a hot foot. Fred had a wooden leg as a result of a farming accident. The night he was murdered he was trying to leave when Bud Stilts shot him. Keep in mind that Stiltz went for his gun when Carl was let in the house. Stiltz got away with his crime because the neighbor was a cop. He wanted to protect Rita Corrigan and her kids for some reason and influenced the inquest determination. The only true witness who saw it all to down was told to leave town until everything calmed down. Carl was well liked and even celebrated by the people of the town called Pretty Prairie in Kansas while he was living there with his wife and son. Now, regarding a director who worked with these kids, the director was named Gus Meins. He was a pedophile. How many of those kids were molested during his time at Roach studios?

Our Gang Little Rascals is one of the unfortunate examples that shows the reality of how, if you take a group of kids that large and follow their lives for 70+ years, you're going to have tragedies in there. It's an unfortunate reality we don't like to think about, but most people don't die as a 90 year old warm in their bed having lived a fairy tale life. It's not much different from following a graduating class of the same size for 70+ years. It's also an example of how the word "tragedy" can sometimes be what you make it. One of the best examples being Spanky. George McFarland is often used as an example of what is called "The Little Rascals Curse". However, if you dig deep into his life, he actually had a pretty decent life many folks would love to live. He did die a bit earlier than people in this day and age would like to where the average life expectancy is in the 70s. But when you think about it, dying from a heart attack at age 65; particularly when the individual was an overweight male, wasn't much of an atypical death of somebody born in 1928. That age was actually past the life expectancy of his time. I wouldn't call that a premature or a tragic death. I would call that a fairly normal death for his time period and would also say he did a very good job making a life he truly enjoyed for himself before it was over. Doesn't sound like a tragic life to me, though he is often portrayed as having one.

Its wild that being the first people may very well be watching the little rascals for a very long time. People 100yrs 200yrs 500 even 5000yrs will be able to see & hear them as if they were in the same room together

Great show when I was a little kid, it shows kids being "Little Rascals" and nothing more. No race, no color, no religion, no accents but I'm sure in the world of "PC" today this show would probably be canceled and banned before the first episode aired.

So sad. If I'm not mistaken, Billy Hutchens - "Weezer" - was the last air force casualty of World War 2. He may, in fact, have been the last casualty of that war.

"edydon" interesting but how do you figure that?
@edydon3 жыл бұрын
@@obscurelyvague I remember hearing it on a video. The last American combat casualty in Europe was Pfc. Charley Havlat (May, 7 1945). Billy Hutchens died May, 17 1945. So the date makes sense. Different sources will report different names depending on whether their criteria includes stateside and combat.

Does anyone remember that weird episode where Buckwheat and a white girl were pretending to be like this interracial couple, going down the street with a baby in a baby carriage? Buckwheat is REALLY Spanky in blackface (attempting to hide from the gang by disguising himself), but still the thought that everyone (who didn't know it was Spanky) was OK with an African-American boy and a white girl pretending to be a married couple with a baby. When I was a kid I didn't think of how bold this was in the 1930's. As an adult it kind of blows my mind.
