Watching the ep "don't come up and see me sometime" and he threw the guys out because he wanted to be alone. Everything looked nasty, the walls and windows. I think the Evans had a better looking place than him and they lived in the projects
Vinny looked like he lived in a abandon building BTW: Typical women, the girl that cancelled on Vinny all of a sudden wanted to spend time with him when all his friends and Mr. Kotter came over. That always happens in real life |

That must have been Part 3 last night. I missed it, I was watching Honey Boo Boo! ![]() The dirty Apartment. That was more common back than. Not dirty per se, cause that is on you. keeping your dishes washed, stuff put away neatly, trash out etc. But back than a lot of us just wanted our own place, away from Mom and Dad. Rents were way cheaper than, and of course the dumpier the place, the cheaper! There wasn't all the building codes like these days, landlords could rent out really bad places. But being young, we didn't see it as that bad. it was OK for a starter apt. Lots of places were furnished too! LOL, with really old raggedy furniture!

On Leave It to Beaver, Eddie Haskell got a really bad apartment briefly.
But the main thing I wanted to mention was there was a Dobie Gillisepisode where it's revealed one of Dobie's friends lives in a horrible apartment, cracked plaster & all. |

Also makes the Kramdens' apartment look luxurious on the Honeymooners.

My last apt looked just like the Kramdens Big room as soon as you come in with a stove and fridge and a bedroom |

Oh yeah!! All of us young girls back in the day wouldn't have complained if they got to be at Vinnie Barbarino's place alone even if his apt was dirty! I was more of a Juan Epstein girl. I crushed on Epstein! I sure would love to go to his place, dirty or clean! I'd clean the apt. for him before we got "busy" !!!

It was messy, but, hey, he was Vinnie Barbarino, he had that swag, he could get away with a lot back then.
