The Dick Van Dyke Show - Season 3, Episode 17 - The Life and Love of Joe Coogan - Full Episode 

I love that even after over 5 decades, these shows hold up so well. Sadly the younger generations do not know what they are missing. Clean AND funny.

I can't imagine a more profound ending. The way the entire last scene played with the music was gorgeous.

18:02 Sal, don't wait too long. I had an aunt who waited so long for her ship to come in that her pier collapsed. 😆

This is one of my favorite episode!

Budy and Mel actually getting a long? What!!!! Lol 🤣

Where’s this tall, good looking, charming PRIEST YOU WANTED ME TO MEET?!?!?!?!? 😂😂😂😂😂

Love the look on Sally’s face when she finally meets Joe!😂😂😂

Forever my favorite sitcom. I literally wheezed and cried when Laura offered to take Sally's coat

As a Reverend, I love this episode! Covers the truth that ministers love God first and fore most!

Beautiful, touching episode. So well handled, with sensitivity and grace.

The priest was sooo handsome!!!

At the very end when he says you lost him to a better man and she almost kisses him on the neck looked genuinely heartfelt.

Rob: Sally what are you doing tonight? Sally: Nothing. But I think Ican get out of it.

Millie, in her own way, is a good friend to Laura.

This episode, like so many others, was written by Carl Reiner. I wonder if that also means he wrote that beautiful sonnet that Rob reads at the end. It wouldn't surprise me if Carl did write that as well. He was a wonderful, under-rated, writer. The end of this episode was simple and understated. Just a small, soft comment by Rob, to comfort Laura.

This episode is soooo wholesome

Danggg that Michael Forest is a handsome devil, nice change seeing him other than a cowboy

i like that lil poem

" My father Joe" 🤣

Michael Forest went from playing a man of God on "Dick Van Dyke" to playing an actual god on the Star Trek episode "Who Mourns for Adonais?"

Remembering the 1960s, when it was still permitted to mention God on television. I miss those comforting times.

Only this show can take an emotionally charged situation and end so wholesome. The minute my wife went down to that golf course, I'd have needed a night in the hotel just to make sure I stay level headed.

I love the sweater Laura's wearing in her first scene

The whole routine when Rob gets home and Sally follows appears to have been filmed in one take . If not , great editing.

Lovely episode… and very funny too.

I Love this episode AND the ending!! GOD blesses!

Such a nice time... back when being a priest really meant ethics.

Funny episode, especially with Sally at the end

Rob: "He's a cross between Gregory Peck and Stewart Granger". Sally: "Hey, that ain't too bad, what''s his name?" Buddy: "Stewart Peck". LOL

Fascinating episode!😁

21:09, Best reaction ever

My favorite

I like the reference to Zorro because Mike Forest had been on an episode of ZORRO.

When's the last time yousaw amodern sitcom say 'God' with reverence?

At 19:46 Rob having many thought processing happening at brain, so his facial expression were look stunned...

Good stuff

Another plot they reconfigured and used on the Mary Tyler Moore show.

It's ridiculously that till this day the catholic church doesn't let priest date.

back in the days when Catholics didn't eat meat on Fridays. I haven't had tuna fish since they changed the rule

Rob invited Joe to stay for coffee, then ran out and left him to pay due to being upset!

The Fr Joe Coogan

That must be a blooper they let pass when Joe greets Millie and shakes her hand, and she says "I'm fine, fine." MTM looks at her with surprise, then answers Joe's question of 'Laura, how've you been' with "Fine, fine." It appears to me Millie says Laura's line, and Laura can do nothing but say it again, anyway.

It's not my favorite episode but I love any episode with Laura in it

🙏🏻✨

That was a beautiful sonnet! Who wrote it?

Bye bye birdie. A slight in-joke based on Dick Van Dyke's part in that film??

I like the episode but really dislike how Laura was upset that Rob found sonnets from another man and acted like she was in the right. Sure at the end it's revealed that they were actually sonnets about god and not love but Laura all the years she had them thought they were about love and kept them hidden so it bugs me that despite her obvious signs she knew that keeping the sonnets she assumed were about love was wrong, she acted like Rob did something wrong if he had found them

A classic! Sexy, good natured and boy, oh boy, do I wish to have been able to meet the stunning priest.

Wasn't Laura only a teenager? 🤔

So sneaky, and mean.

love the show but get real tired of laura saying darling ALLLLL the time.

Wonder why they are called 'father' when the bible says not to call anyone Father except God Himself (and dads, etc) Strange religion...

Apollo!

I'll never understand why they gave Millie that hideous haircut for this season. It made her head look like the Frankenstein monster's!

NOTHING like a cup of coffee after a round of golf. Seriously, I get the fact that Dick was an alcoholic, but I think it was an issue after this show ended, but two guys having a COFFEE after a round of golf on a Friday? LOL. I can say I've never seen this. Not saying it doesn't happen, but what about a coke or a water? LOL. I also have to comment on this; although this is definitely one of the BEST situation comedies from one of the BEST eras, this particular show relied too much on this same scenario too many times. Rob or Laura's ex love interest enters, mysteriously and for NO logical reason completely out of the blue, into the picture years later and somehow the other has NO idea of this very important person's history in their spouse's life ..... Kind of dumb. Especially after five or six of the same episodes plots of the same thing. Perhaps Carl Reiner was seeing the beginnings of little Rob's penchant for directing other people to live life the way little Robbie thought they should from his bedroom of the Hollywood mansion they had way back in the sixties and early seventies, and was trying to deal with that and he didn't give much thought to the repetitive show plots. It's NOT easy being the rich television executive with a BRILLIANT, soon to be - and eventually, WORLD SAVING actor who rode coattails for his carrier. Not at all.

What's the reason for the white collar? Certainly not a symbol of purity... those priests have made a lot of news in the last 10 years or so... and purity certainly isn't what was going on...

I can't imagine a more profound ending. The way the entire last scene played with the music was gorgeous.
