What is your all-time favorite episode of The Partridge Family and why?

07-01-2000, 11:56 PM

Any episode that featured David Cassidy for more than 5 minutes is my favorite!!!!!!!!!
That man was and still is absolutely gorgeous, and his talent could only be improved if he used it to sing song's to the glory of God. He's a babe through and through.

Prob "Promise her anything.......but give her a punch" - the one where Danny fell for Gloria but Gloria thought Keith was in love with her. I loved the last part where the family sang to Gloria's girl scout troop and when Keith got ready to sign autographs, the all girls ran to Danny and Laurie came up to him and said, "Nobody wants an autograph from a homewrecker."

I liked the one where Kieth is pursued by girls,is pursuing a girl who isn't interested in him-and is largely ignoring a girl who does like him.He does realize in the end who his real friend is...and the song,"Somebody Wants To Love You,"is played.

I can relate to this in more ways than one.

I don't particuarly like the show but I would have to say I liked the ep with Jodie Foster...since I am a huge jodie fan. But that's the only ep I would even consider watching twice.

My favorite episode is "What? And Get Out Of
Showbusiness?". It shows the Partridges rise to fame as a musical group. Johnny Cash makes a cameo at the beginning when he says "Ladies and gentlemen, The Partridge Family." The opening credits were good in that pilot,before Sandy Dvore used the traditional one you see in the rest of the 1st season. He
changed Jeremy to Brian in the opening credits in the second season.

My favorite is the Pilot, I think, where they
convince Mom to sing, Danny negotiates for the bus, and they paint it. And they sing "together- having a ball" on stage.

My 2nd favorite episode is where Danny starts auctioning off all of Keiths personal belongings, and they wind up singing on the bus. They sing "24 Hours a day", of which I have the 45 on the Bell label.

Alot of the episodes are cute but I like the one also when Danny actions off Keith belongings including his half eaten pickle.
I also like the one from the last season when Laurie pretends to be Keith date at a party so he can make another girl jealous. She dresses up like a southern belle.

The one where they sing the 'Whale Song'. That one is so cheesy, beyond chessy!

There was a show where Keith was having a difficult period where he couldn't write any songs. The group needed songs to record but were unable to do so because they needed original songs. One night Keith stayed up all night and completed several songs and he finally broke his creative slump. Danny was sleeping and thruout the night he was unconsciously listening and committing the music Keith was playing to his memory. When Danny woke up the next morning, while Keith slept late, Danny played the music that came into his mind overnight to the band. Danny was the hero for "writing" the new song for the band. Keith listened to the song and accused Danny of stealing his song.

I love the episode where they get started the 1st one. I like it because I like the songs they sing. Also when they get stage fright. That is so funny.

My favorite episode: 16-1/2.
Why: Reuben wearing a fairy outfit, Shirley dancing with hedge trimmers, Laurie imitating Cleopatra and a sopping wet Keith jumping in a sprinkler while wearing a stretchy leotard...what more could you want in a sitcom?

Without a doubt, the episode that introduced Bobby Sherman and Wes Stern (whatever happened to Wes Stern anyway?!?!) as Shirley Partridge's next door neighbors----which that episode spun off into Bobby and Wes's series "Getting Together".

Everyone in my junior high was crazy for Bobby, I was out in left field and just went gaga over Wes's goofy looks!!!

I like the ones from the first season when the Partridges are on the road touring (the skunk one, for instance). They don't tour as much in the later seasons, and the show becomes more of a typical sitcom.
