The episode where Beaver gives his girlfriend a neckless and the girl's father sends it back and gives Ward some flack about it.

That dad asks the girl's mom if they are raising one of the Gabor sisters. Were the sisters a big deal back then?

Yes, they were- with Zsa Zsa the ex-wife of the then-famous Oscar winner George Sanders and Eva often seen in gossip columns. At that point, they both were stunningly beautiful and effortlessly charming long before they (especially Zsa Zsa ) became self-parodies in the latter parts of their lives. Oh, and they were both known to have very expensive tastes which they happily encouraged their boyfriends/husbands to indulge in!

Also I enjoyed Zsa Zsa on talk shows as she couldn’t shut up. Once Merv Griffin introduced a new guest and Zsa kept talking. He told her to ‘shut up!’ Peter Cook had a few salty things to say to her when she stupidly brought a lap dog onto the stage of a British talk show. The dog was traumatized. She didn’t realize he was insulting her. She was very rich but very common.

She (Zsa Zsa) lived to a very old age, IIRC. I'm glad for her sake and many other seniors, that they didn't live to deal with 2020.

I'd guess they'd rather be alive and deal with 2020 than be dead

I know I would choose life, you too ?

I've never wanted to die. But if it happened tomorrow,.. I'd try not to let it bother me too much.
