A cool thing about Karl Malden - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

wiseguy182 · 11-26-2007, 03:55 AM

barring any unfortunate circumstances, In a little over a month, Karl Malden's marriage to Mona Greenberg will officially become the longest running marriage in Hollywood.

I thought this was cool and decided to pass it on.

From IMDb: His sixty-seven year marriage to Mona Greenberg is the second longest in Hollywood history. Bob Hope and Dolores Hope's sixty-nine year marriage, from 1934 until his death in 2003, is the longest.

Also from IMDb:

Charles Lane:
Spouse: Ruth Covell Lane (12 April 1931 - 30 November 2002) (her death) 2 children

It's obvious that some folks at IMDb are not on the same wavelength.

You're partially correct. however, that page hasn't been updated in awhile. Malden married Mona in 1938, so as of right now, it is 69 years, and will be 70 next year (slightly over a month.)

Awww...congrats to Mr. & Mrs. Malden.

Chris Billings · 11-29-2007, 02:22 AM

69 years! Thats amazing by any standard, Hollywood or not.

BTW If you like Karl Malden and live in the Bay Area, watching old eps of Streets of San Francisco can be alot fun. I saw one yesterday which ended with a good guy, bad guy chase along the BART train tracks. (The same which Dottie Caylor was said to have taken when she disappeared)

I just cant get away from UM. Even when I watch other TV shows Im still thinking about it....Aaaarrrr Oh the burden I carry!

I love to hear that. Congrats to Karl and his wife. That is TRUE LOVE AND COMMITMENT. They should teach a course on love and marriage in Hollywood somewhere.

Since you brought his name up Charles Lane for what its worth was an actor's actor. I mainly know of him as a guest star but whatever show he guested in from "I Love Lucy" to "Bewitched" to "Rhoda" - whatever scene this guy was in he stole the scene. His appearance in "Bewitched" as Mr. Hodgkins is still one of my all time favorite episodes of "Bewitched" and he is the reason. May he rest in peace...

Back to your regularly scheduled programming...

Charles Lane was indeed a terrific actor. Besides his Bewitched appearances, I loved his guest spot on ILL. He was the expectant father in the waiting room with Ricky hoping for a boy after 6 girls. Instead he got 3 more girls!! "Nine girls..."

Back to Karl Malden, your post is beautiful, Irene. They could really show the likes of Britney and Jessica the value of commitment.

Karl Malden hosted two Unsolved Mysteries specials before Unsolved Mysteries became a regular series with Stack as the host.

Oh yes, I remember that. I think this thread is very touching and special, if it was under chit/chat, more people may read it.
