Did you ever wonder how as a single girl in the 1960's she could afford her
own apartment when she didn't have a reliable steady job? She did part-time
acting and other part-time jobs but surley she didn't make enough to live on
her own. Do you think Don or her mom was slipping her money?

Remember the episode that she was opening ketchup packets into soup for lunch? She kept saying, she wasn't hard up for $.

Obv. someome had to be bankrollling her.

Again I think the MST3K approach works best here...

"Just repeat to yourself it's just a show, I should really just relax..."

I always find that fact so ridiculous that it's really funny. Ann is barely employed but she has this lovely apartment (even with a dishwasher later on) and the ever changing Mod wardrobe!~ In one of the shows (I think the "mouse" episode) Don or someone makes a sarcastic comment about all her clothes.
