Are playing on METV now.

I don't think there were any more touching episodes than the adopting Ernie ones.
Brave little Ernie getting tossed around. I remember seeing these in 1965, but had long ago forgotten the details.

Lol.. Robby's non-stop matchmaking advice..After listening to Robby give a another long winded session on what to say:
Steve to Miss Coulter-
"Your hair looks really neat"


"Mr. Douglass...is it okay if I call you Dad..?"
Ernie's such an awesome kid.

It's a shame that Vera Miles was on relatively few episodes as Miss Coulter. Those were part of a good storyline, with Barry's talent evident even at that very young age. Loved how Charley called Ernie's dog Wilson by the wrong name, "Coolidge" -- he had his presidents mixed up...!

I can't believe I missed that...!
