View Full Version : Fred or Mel?
1954Boomer 03-12-2004, 10:53 AM Which character did you like better, Fred Rutherford or Mel Cooley?
Personally, I always liked Fred's character much better than Mel's. I never really liked Buddy's constant 'jokes' about Mel. Most of them weren't funny, in my opinion, and Mel never had much if any comeback to them. But that's just me.
MikeZ 03-12-2004, 11:14 AM Futherford ? :)
I liked Fred much more, he seemed to be much more friendly.
1954Boomer 03-12-2004, 11:20 AM Thanks for the correction, MikeZ! I need to profreed my posts more----especially with my poor typing abilities. LOL!
Mijada 03-12-2004, 11:29 AM What are you guys talking about. Who is Mel?
1954Boomer 03-12-2004, 11:30 AM Sorry! I should have provided more information in my post.
Mel Cooley was the actor played by actor Richard Deacon in Dick Van Dyke.
MikeZ 03-12-2004, 12:11 PM Cooly? profreed? :)
This is way too easy!! There is nobody around that spells worse than I do.....I can't spell at all, but I can spot mistakes easily. In fact, I once worked in a printing shop, as a proofreader, or profreed!
I think you are not a bad speller, you are probably just typing faster than you are thinking.....I also tend to do that a lot!
Mijada, somehow we ended up talking about someone from the DVD show, not trying to confuse you!
frani 03-12-2004, 12:58 PM and a think they are the same character.
1954Boomer 03-12-2004, 01:48 PM You caught another mistake I made, MikeZ. lol! I think you are correct, in that my problem is that I am typing faster than my brain. LOL!
evermore 03-12-2004, 03:46 PM SKIN HEAD FRED!!!!
LOL!
REMEMBER HE TOLD WARD SOME BOYS CALLED HIM A SKIN HEAD?
hawaii five-o 03-12-2004, 04:10 PM It's hard for me to pick a favorite. On "Beaver", Fred was kind of arrogant and always saying things like, "Ward, my boy..." On DVD, it was funny when Mel said "Ick" to Buddy and when Mel would brown nose Alan Brady, even though Alan treated him like dirt.
Chris49633 03-12-2004, 04:11 PM I guess Fred is just more memorable for me so I picked him.

CCRYDER1968 03-12-2004, 08:33 PM hmmmmm.... Fred was annoying and so was Mel!!But I guess my sympathy lies more with Mel.He was pretty wimped out.Annoying as Fred was,he wasn't a wimp!
evermore 03-12-2004, 10:08 PM Hey Boomer, What happen to your car??? It looks like all squished in. Is that the SKIN HEAD MOBILE that Fred uses?:dance:

Oh OK. Thanks for the info. I only watch Dick Van Dyke on occasion so I'm not familiar with all the characters. I have seen Richard Deacon on there but had no idea what his character name was.
1954Boomer 03-15-2004, 08:34 AM LOL! Apparently, Evermore, when I attempted to resize the car to fit as my AVATAR, it got all scrunched up.
ricardo/mertz 03-15-2004, 10:06 AM I pick Mel, Fred gets on my nerves. He is so arrogant and sure that his Clarence does no wrong. I'm not a promoter of violence. But, I wish Ward would have belted Fred a good one just once. Then the lesson of the day would be, see what happens when you lose your temper!
