Blondie Knows Best (1946) Movies! TV Network 7/10
Dagwood is being sued by his grumpy new neighbor and has to pose as Mr Dithers to make a deal.
#18 in the Blondie series and a a very fast and funny entry, many subplots and wacky scenes. Stooge Shemp Howard appears as a process server who keeps trying give a summons to Dagwood. Shemp has some of the funniest moments as his character has bad eyesight and keeps breaking his glasses. He would soon replace Curly in the Three Stooges. Jerome Cowan plays a client who has a altercation with Dithers before he knows who he is. This is what causes him to switch places with Dagwood. Yet another plot twist has Dagwood volunteering as a guinea pig in an experiment by two doctors. They give him a truth serum. Jean Willes has an unbilled appearance as a nurse. She would later play sexy blond B girls but she has dark hair in this one. I remember her as one of the bus passengers on The Twilight Zone episode "Will The Real Martian Please Stand Up". She plays a "dancer" and the driver says she can't be the Martian because she is one passengers that he remembers.

Jim, are you old enough to remember Cabot in the 1960-62 television detective series 'Checkmate' ?
No, I was only about 2 at the time and I don't think this was ever in syndication. Anything with Cabot is worth seeing. Just the other day I saw an episode of My Three Sons on MeTV, where the oldest son Mike (Tim Considine) meets his future father in law (Cabot) and everything goes wrong. Cabot is hilarious as one disaster after another happens. In one scene he is supposed to be going to a party with his daughter and Mike's family but walks into the wrong room and is met by a wild bunch of lodge members who mistake him for a new pledge. He is hit with paddles and drenched with seltzer bottles.

And who can forget little BOBBY BLAKE as MICKEY worrying over his parent's breaking up over HASH?
I liked that one even long before I knew who Blake was, or that it WAS Blake who was Mickey in the franchise.

Those were the years when Our Gang stopped being funny, they were more like Sunday school lessons. And Robert Blake did not become a good actor until he was an adult, he was a horrible actor as a child.

Yeah, a great one. That's when that nasty dogcatcher tries to gas Pete.

I hope it happens, I only have them on VHS, these are my favorites:
1. The Kid From Borneo-Dickie and Spanky mistakenly believe a wild man in a circus is their long lost uncle. Spanky has a great scene feeding him raws eggs,bologna and weinies.2. Wild Poses-Spanky needs to get his photo took but keeps busting the prissy photographer in the nose. Franklin Pangborn is hilarious in this.3. Free Wheeling-Rich kid Dickie gets a wild car ride from Stymie.Some very funny encounters with pedestrians.4. Birthday Blues-Dickie and Spanky try to earn money to buy a birthday present for their mom. They make a huge cakes with prizes in it.5. Mush And Milk-the gang are orphans who are waiting for their kindly foster father to get his back pension. This has the famous "don't drink the milk!" "Why?" "It's spoiled!"6. Shrimps For A Day-two adults find a magic lamp and become kids again. They end up with the gang at an orphanage run by nasty Mr Crutch. The old man is put in his place by wise cracking Spanky.7. Divot Diggers-the gang and their monkey become caddies at a golf course. Lots of funny gags as the golfers are driven crazy.8. Mama's Little Pirate-Spanky and the gang search for pirate treasure but find a scary giant instead.9. Love Business-Jackie and Chubby both fall for Miss Crabtree. Funniest scenes are Jackie interrupting Chubby's romantic poems to the teacher.10. Sprucin' Up- Spanky and Alfalfa try to impress the pretty new neighbor. It ends with a very funny chinup contest. -

Tony Curtis, although I actually did meet him quickly at a book signing in 2008, there were so many people, so he could not chat with anyone. Though I did say in my New York accent "How you doin?'" and he replied in his Bronx accent "Doin' good!". I would have had million questions for him if I could.
next- Robert Keith or his son Brian Keith?
