Julie Was Still After Wally - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Been watching New Leave It To Beaver every Monday for a couple months now and today for the first time I saw Cheryl Holdridge playing Julie Foster. She was still very hot and a good looking girl in 1985 when this show was on. Naturally since this is a TV show she was still single with no attachments and still hot and heavy for Wally. Seems Julie was mentally frozen in 1959 even in 1985. I hadn't seen what Julie looked like since her old days on Beaver and once on My Three Sons. Nice to know she was still a hottie though and hard to believe she's now gone to that big Mayfield in the sky.

I've never heard you mention New LITB. How is the quality? I have it but it's really bad.

Hazel Anyday · 08-13-2019, 10:06 PM

This is one of those series I got many moons ago in a trade. I've had this for many years but only a few months ago did I start to watch them. The quality is rotten. It goes from pretty bad to really bad, haven't seen a perfect one yet. The episode where Julie returns is 1.26 "While The Beav's Away" the sound on this episode is atrocious, I could only understand a sentence every once in a while, really really muffled, in fact I'd say this episode wins the prize for worst sound so far seen on these New Leave It To Beaver discs. A couple episodes look decent though, though with still a muffled sound. I don't know who originally taped these shows but their VCR must have been ready for the junk heap. But, still, as bad as they are, as I've had to say before on some shows I've gotten in trades, "they're better than nothing". At least I can now watch them. I only watched a few episodes off TBS even back then, never recorded it myself, now I'm sorry I didn't.

Probably anyone who has this has the same crummy copies. Yours sounds the same as mine and it's been quite awhile since I've looked at them.

Too bad they can't untangle the legal issues so this could come back to TV.

I wish Mr. Peabody and Sherman could whisk me back there so I could record some decent copies of it!

In one of the features on the DVD set both Frank Bank (who died in 2013) and Ken Osmond said Cheryl Holdridge was an absolute jewel to work with, a very nice person. She died in 2009.

Nothin' up my sleeve.... (roaring beast) Ooh, don't know my own strength.

You'z guys really need to get DVD's and stop waiting for the all mighty TV station programmers to, maybe one day, put on a show you'd like to see. I gave up this way of thinking decades ago, EVERYTHING I watch from the '50's thru the '70's are always on DVDs, never "live" TV broadcast. I'd be crazy to rely on TV programmers today to do the right thing. That dream died long ago.

I've been watching Bullwinkle DVDs for the past year or so every Saturday, the perfect day for Saturday cartoons. And that's why I programmed it that way. No way I'm going to sit around and wait for a 20 year old TV programmer to put on any of my favorite classic old shows. First of all, they never heard of them.

Been watching classic cartoons of the '60's on Saturdays for a long time now. I watch 'em all on DVD on my own schedule. I really thought most people did this by now.

Some favorites that even today still make me laugh out loud,
Beany & Cecil (hilarious and written for adults too, something I never knew as a kid), loaded with '60's pop culture satire,

Quick Draw McGraw, absolutely one of the finniest toons I've RE-discovered after not having seen it since I was a kid. Every single one of them had me laughing.

Rocky & Bullwinkle, very clever writing, a lot like Beany & Cecil with many adult jokes that would have gone over the heads of kids, also a lot of '60's culture references,

Pixie & Dixie, really clever and funny, with great side comments by Jinks the cat that probably went over the heads of little kids

Huckleberry Hound, funny and goofy, great voice work too

Augie Doggie, the father sounding just like Jimmy Durante and the little kid makes loads of funny and cute remarks "Dear Old Dad",

New Adv.s of Superman (toons starring Bud Collyer as Supie) and also the Aquaman toons, the Filmation ones of the '60's, these I used to watch when they were new and they're still just as fun now to watch as then on Saturdays (perfect day for Superman)

All these toons I watched way back when in the swinging '60's and I love 'em.

A few disappointments too along the way. Disappointing in that I remember liking these toons as a kid, but today, I just don't find them funny:

Wally Gator, kind of boring, really

Touche Turtle, another boring one that repeats the same lame gags in every toon, really lazy writing

Peter Potamus, it wasn't terrible but they suffer the same repeat and repeat joke each and every time. I really used to like this one too.

Well, I could go on but you get the idea.

Quick Draw probably isn't available (the Warner excuse a few years ago was that the masters were bad--translation: we don't want to take the time and money to look) but I admit I should have bought Rocky and Bullwinkle by now. I do have some of them recorded off WGN a few years ago.

I'm not familiar with Beany and Cecil but it sounds good.

The so-called cartoon network is nothing but garbage. At least a few years ago they still showed Looney Tunes, but no more.

stevea · 08-15-2019, 10:41 PM

Oh, I do have one of the better Jay Ward toons, George of the Jungle.

Another one I liked as a kid was The Beatles on ABC Saturday morning. This is now owned by Apple/EMi and they should release it on DVD. Kids today don't know what they're missing. Saturday mornings were downright great.

CosmicCharlie · 08-15-2019, 11:02 PM

in the early 60's I had some LP records - including Quick Draw McGraw was one one of them - not sure who else (now) but maybe my brain will reboot and I'll remember more LOL
