Such a heartwarming, sweet ray of light in a dark, commercialized, insincere world. We need more of this. I grew up in the Bronx in a Jewish family. It really brings back memories of a world that no longer exists except in memory and on old programs like this. God bless us all.
@Nomo You were completely unaware of the prejudice against the Jews or the way they were trying hard to avoid a pogrom in the US, trying to fit in, trying not to be hurt as they and their relatives had in WWII, so you thought it was heaven on earth.
Gartrude Berg was never given the credit for how much talent she had. She hand wrote all of the scripts, helped direct each episode and also starred in them. This wonderful show opened many doors and windows into such a special time in thsi country's history. it also was brave in several pisodes that showed the traditions of jewish family as they celcbrated their holidays.
Yes, perhaps the best show ever. Although it always struggled on tv bouncing from network to network, time slot to time slot. Radio was a much more stable medium for The Goldbergs starting in 1929.
😀 i've never seen or even heard of this show before. i watch others (from before i was born) on the tct station: i married joan, life with elizabeth, meet corliss archer, & a lot of western adventures. i like ozzie & harriet when the boys were young children. thanx to people uploading [? right word?] the goldbergs, i'll watch more. 💁
A friend of mine told me about this show when I mentioned to him about "The Goldbergs" that are currently airing on ABC. I'll have to take a look at this show. From the comments, I can tell it's good!
This was the sweetest show. This show ran on radio for years. I have heard about the TV version, but never saw any video episodes until youtube. This is one of the later shows. By this time, it was breathing its last on DuMont (after being on NBC and CBS). As was mentioned, this was the last "live" season and the last season where the family still lived in The Bronx. The following year, the show went on film (yuck), the show was syndicated (yuck) and the family moved to the suburbs (double yuck). By the way, she really knew how to sell the sponsor's product at the window! Do they still make Rybutol? I think I need some.
The New York Times reported in 1962 that Rybutol was charged with false advertising, promising "pep and energy and relieve weariness and unhappiness." The paper didn't list the alcohol content.
I was going to subscribe to the channel.But I think they must have died. I left an endearing post.And it was not responded to.And I don't even subscribe to channels.But I thought this was a well written and true acting,natarul.And I felt I was guided to this 30's era.I am now looking for DVD box sets. Thanks for the referral.
Vitamin Corporation of America (the "Rybutol" people) originally co-sponored the twice-weekly 15 minute edition of "THE GOLDBERGS" on NBC's 1952-'53 schedule. In early 1954, the series moved to DuMont [the weakest of the four major TV networks at the time], appearing on Monday nights at 8pm(et) {opposite "THE GEORGE BURNS AND GRACIE ALLEN SHOW" on CBS} for VCA, lasting 39 weeks, until it ended that October.
when famlies got together, and loved one another not now, where some families do not care about certain love ones. who are left put in the cold specially thanks giving and xmas.
The actor playing Jake, Molly's husband, is Robert H. Harris. Gertrude Berg's former co-star in that role, Philip Loeb, was subjected to blacklisting. Driven from his profession, facing insurmountable personal, financial and family problems, he took his own life. The truth was, he was murdered by the people who had stolen his good name and livelihood. Let us never forget the evils of blacklisting, and remember this rotten tactic wasn't just used against movie and tv stars. Most Americans who were blacklisted had no connection with show business. They came from every walk of life. They were teachers, waiters, firemen, union officials, anything you care to name. Blacklisting left permanent scars on American life and helped move the country towards accepting an increasingly violent foreign policy and economic inequality at home.
@@653j521 It's a reference to the modern, unrelated "The Goldbergs" which usually begins with the narrator saying "(exact day-and-month date) nineteen eighty-something"
i see that on many, many shows.👾it's supposed to make us think they're really eating.😛 from what i've seen here, jake & david are actually chowing down! 😋😆
@@peacockblue8407 They probably only have one take, live, and one camera. Food is a problem with retakes and different angles, trying to get the views to match up. And it is a problem if the actors are on a diet and don't want to eat so much.
It was nice if all our Tv shows made me feel comfortable during the shows that I saw on TV as teenager , As well as my wife of 56 years. The new shows that distort the original shows make me feel That tis new distortion sent a wrong message to the Millennials don't have any idea how, my family Scottish and German as a Majority in America just as saying that our Family were American dissipated and the word Minority became more important than my family's heritage. .jamestalor2000.com jamestaylor2000.com/America
