Miss Landers - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I wanted to watch Miss Landers in shows other than Leave it to Beaver so I set the DVR to record everything Sue Randall appears in. Unfortunately IMO her apex as an actress is as Miss Landers which she does quite well. The lady can't act. I think she would have been a regular in Lifetime or Hallmark movies. She was just before her time. Just so you know my crush on Miss Landers was as big as Beavers. I'm 69 and while I did not catch the first few seasons when originally aired I saw them in early reruns

Shameful Miss Landers wasn't in the "gassy gag reel".

I saw her on Perry Mason and liked it (IIRC)

I was disappointed to hear she was a heavy cigarette smoker & drinker in real life - she acted pretty innocent on LITB

Apparently scientists have discovered each flatulence has a readable DNA like trail being studied. This discovery is being used to collect valuable data to better mankind. Each flatulence tells an individual story told in this unique language. The science community has long thought that before verbal language ancient man may have communicated through different pitch, tone, and length of flatulence. Please Google this scientific breakthrough! Keep it in mind if you ever want to poo-poo putt-putts!

A discussion of LITB and flatulence: the mind boggles!

Still, renowned horror novelist Stephen King has said that his favorite scene in “Blazing Saddles” is the infamous “Cowboys Around the Campfire” scene.

And, in the immensely popular HBO series, “The Sopranos,” we got to see and hear Soprano family captain Vito Spatafore “letting loose” as he enjoyed a hearty meal in the Sopranos’ stylish home.

If LITB were on today, maybe we’d see a similar scene, where seemingly perpetually hungry Clarence “Lumpy” Rutherford would “serenade” Wally, Eddie and the Beaver with a “tune” of his own creation?

Heck, maybe we now know the real reason why young Beaver did not want to eat any of those all-too-gassy Brussels Sprouts?

Farting Statistics

13 Facts About Farts That Might Actually Make You Appreciate Them

They get a bad wrap, okay?

1. Only 1% of your fart actually smells. Yup — even that little one that no one heard but everyone in a 1,000 mile radius smelled. 99% of that fart was odorless gases like carbon dioxide, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and methane. That leaves 1% of the smelly stuff, hydrogen sulfide. And considering how bad your farts can smell sometimes (just admit it), that hydrogen sulfide is some pretty strong stuff!

2. Certain foods make your farts smell worse than others. When you eat sulfur rich foods like eggs and meat, your farts will smell worse because that food breaks down and creates hydrogen sulfide, AKA, rotten egg gas.

3. Women's farts smell worse than men's. As hard as it is to believe, it's true. Although women and men produce the same amount of flatulence, a study conducted by Dr. Levitt found that women's farts consistently contain significantly greater concentrations of hydrogen sulfide — the stuff that makes them smell.

4. You probably don't fart as much as you think you do. Often, people go to their doctor complaining of having too much gas, but chances are, you're just imagining it. These people are often told to go home and keep a record of when they fart in a journal. Flatologist Michael Levitt, M.D. found that most of these people fall within the normal range of farts per day (see #5) and "they simply have to be informed of their 'normality.'"

5. Most people fart about 14 to 22 times a day. Yeah, if someone tells you they don't fart, they're lying. Or else there's something seriously wrong...

6. Fart jokes are timeless. The oldest joke in history is actually a fart joke. It's an ancient Sumerian proverb dating back to 1900 BC that says, "Something which has never occurred since time immemorial; a young woman did not fart in her husband's lap." *ba-boom tsssss*

7. Farts can explode. As ridiculous as it seems when someone sets their fart on fire in those wildly popular bro-y comedy flicks, your farts really ARE flammable. Two chemicals in farts, methane and hydrogen, are flammable, which is what makes it possible to make a small explosion if you hold a lighter up to your butt when you fart. Not saying you should though. In fact, definitely don't unless you want to risk burning yourself or starting a fire. It's really not that funny.

8. Farts are really fast. They've clocked in at 3.05 meters per second, which is roughly 7 miles per hour. That's faster than your standard hoverboard btw, which are also, coincidentally, flammable.

9. You're not the only one whose farts go weird places. A woman took to Reddit to ponder something strange that happened to her when she farted, asking, "Do you ever fart and the fart goes past your vagina and your labia moves?" Perhaps she thought she was the only one who had experienced this farting phenomenon, but turns out, she isn't. Hundreds of women responded to her post, revealing they too had experienced it. Apparently, this phenomenon has a name too. It's called a "vart".

10. Vegetarians fart more than non-vegetarians. Apparently, it's because of all the beans they eat. Beans contain carbohydrates made of molecules that are too large to be absorbed in our small intestine during digestion so they pass into the large intestine still intact. This leads to an increase in certain bacteria in the lower intestine to break down the beans, which produces large amounts of hydrogen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide gas. But hey, if meat eaters have to suffer from smelly farts (see #2), it's only fair vegetarians have to fart more!

11. Your butt can tell the difference between a fart and poop. The tactile nerve endings in your rectal areacan distinguish between the different sensations depending on if it's air that needs to exit or stool. The only exception is when you have the runs and your poop is more of a liquid consistency, which confuses said nerve endings and may result in a bit of an accident.

12. Holding in farts isn't harmful. You're not going to explodeor anything. Sooner or later your body is going to get that air out.

13. Farting isn't gross. Sure, it seems gross because they often smell like rotten eggs, but it's just something a healthy human body does — a normal byproduct of your body digesting food.

So, in the future, your first reaction to a fart shouldn't be to hold it in:

It should be to LET IT GO.

Wasn't there talk at one time COVID could be transmitted through flatulence?

Watching "All In the Family" second honeymoon episode. Edith is dolling herself up in the motel bathroom. Archie eagerly waiting for her pops open a bottle of champagne. Edith cries out "Oh Archie!'

Sgt. Saunders · 01-03-2022, 09:05 PM

Cosmic Charlie,

Thanks for that great list of facts concerning flatulence; the list was both highly informative and extremely funny!

Can you imagine sitting behind Larry Mondello in either Miss Canfield or Miss Landers’ class immediately after lunch time and Larry having just consumed a humongous Italian deli sandwich, loaded with hot peppers, onions, olives and other assorted spicy legumes? Judy Hensler would be absolutely appalled!

stevea · 01-03-2022, 09:39 PM

I remember the sixth grade was really big on farting. We sat in doubled up desks and I had to watch out when the guy next to me lifted his rear end (toward me, of course!). Watch out!

With the gutter TV of today, that would probably make it into a Beaver script.

Well, to be fair, LITB did air an episode in which an angry Beaver did utter an unheard expletive-deleted word at another boy, who intentionally tripped Beaver in a Grant Avenue School hallway.

Of course, a holier-than-thou Miss Landers reprimanded Beaver for saying the offending word without also attempting to find out what had caused the Beaver to curse out that other trouble-making kid. Apparently, another one of Miss Landers’ regrettable actions, like entrusting Beaver’s sealed report card to the extremely unreliable Gilbert Bates to deliver personally to Mrs. Cleaver.

stevea · 01-04-2022, 09:33 AM

That episode really bugged me. The other kid got off without any questions being asked of him.

And Beaver should have said, Uh Miss Landers, what about Arthur? It's not fair--he tripped me, I coulda been hurt, and he gets off with nothin'.

Sgt. Saunders · 01-04-2022, 01:42 PM

Yes, I wonder if Miss Landers’ unfortunate lapses in judgment caused her any problems as a newly-married woman? Maybe her marriage was destined to be as ill-fated as had been the marriage between Chopper’s divorced parents?
