If you had to live in a 50/60s show - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Tankeryanker · 07-07-2022, 09:34 PM

which show would you live in and why?

I think I could handle being June's daughter at least the person I am now could. I am not sure I could as the real teenager I was back in the day.

I would not like to live with the Andersons as much.

Mister Ed

Because I could talk to the horse, of course

Bewitched, to see some of the magic and maybe get a cure or two from Dr. Bombay.

I pick I Love Lucy ! I wouldn't mind being a housewife living in a nice brownstone in a good section of NY back in the day ! And than moving over to the country/ Connecticut !

That would be fun! And Chatsworth, Ca. was so nice, peaceful and rural back than. Great place to live and have horses, esp. cool if one of them were a talking horse!

I'm picturing you stuffing eggs in your sweater and then dancing the tango with Ricky!

Yes, and Mr. Ed is so funny too. He'd keep me laughing all day long.

I've thought about it a few days now, and although there are compelling reasons supporting both TAGS and IDOJ....I think my favorite would have to be Gilligan's Island.

Those people were living in paradise and were too myopic to realize it

I'd like to try a hybrid sort of time warp, like say, going back into the 50s temporarily as a person of today, like in the movie 'Pleasantville' or 'Back to the Future'.

You could either be as conforming as was customary then, or as "edgy" as you'd like to gain advantages in certain situations. Imagine the possibilities...

I have wondered the outcome of the Civil war if only one side had cellphones.

It's an intriguing thought. I'm wondering if I'd need to steer clear of "myself" or if I'd occupy my younger self. Now there's a scary thought--I'd have to sit thru school again. Ugh...what a pleasure it would be to return to the present!

Or maybe I'd need to go back to a time before I was born.
