I've always loved Eve's distinctive voice. I also love the decor of that era and although my condo building is not vintage, I have redone the interior to look like the coziness of the 1940's-1950's.
When they said in the dream they were married 25 years, the episode aired in 1955. They couldn't have even imagined how clothing and music styles would have evolved between 1955 and 1980, so they just stayed where they were.
Hey thank you to whoever uploaded thisq I love this show. You don't find a lot of people in their '20s that like stuff like this but I guess I got an old soul 🤭
Joan Crawford was so sympathetic when Eve Arden was contracted to do this show. She thought that Ms. Arden would be slaving away many, many hours and for almost no money. Arden pulled her contract out of her purse and Crawford was amazed at how lucrative the show would be! Arden owned some of the show and when interviewed she said she only worked three and a half days per week. ❤
I wish I can locate that episode where it was a scene where the older lady was listening on the phone line Mrs Brooks was talking to someone and she said she's probably listening again to the person she was on the phone with or something like that and the older lady said came in on the phone and said ( That's a dirty lie 😭 😂 ). I would love to locate that episode I have no clue which one it is but any who ..
Incredibly, while this was being filmed, some U.S. school districts would not hire married female teachers. Even when married women were more accepted and hired, they had to give up their jobs if they became pregnant. By the way, note the absence of the word "pregnant" in this episode; its omission was par for the time.
