B.N. Before Netflix- on our T.V.’s with rabbit ears antennas.

On some “Grey” days we binged as Mc Dreamy took care of Don Draper and diagnosed it as just too much day drinking. We were left confused after Sam Seaborn ( Rob Lowe) exited the West Wing, while salivating over Carmela’s “Sunday Sauce.” Yum to those meat-a -balls. Bada a Bing style. Cannolis from Veniero’s for dessert Please.

And so the story begins when corned beef and pastrami meet on the corner of Potato Knish and Dr. Brown’s Soda. They bump into the Salami on rye with deli mustard sandwich and a pickled tomato from Katz’s deli.

As they all get ready to watch Mr. Ed whisper to Ozzie and Harriet a cute story about (ok who remembers their neighbor?) Thornyp- Played by Don Defore. Yup!
They are meeting over at Donna Reed’s house to watch the Beaver and his brother Wally take on Ken Osmond a.k.a. Eddie Haskell in a game of H-O- R- S-E, in their driveway. After a pot luck dinner, where their luck kicked in with an end cut from the roast beef and bread pudding for dessert they sit around the piano and sing out loud with My Little Margie, Aunt Bee who is getting a ride over with Barney and being escorted by Opie. Oh “kay” then.

Their honored guest is Cosmo Topper. Is the rumbling from behind the curtains coming from George and Marion Kirby Cosmos famed ghosts only he could see? Once we heard a dog bark we knew for certain it was Neil the Kirbys goofy Saint Bernard.

Onto the next after dinner game of Clue which was positioned on top of Monoply in the game closet. We wait for That Girl (Marlo Thomas) to be Bewitched by (Elizabeth Montgomery) all the while Ann Sothern, who came with Don Porter is taking the minutes of the day. Eddie Albert shows up with the fur clad, diamond bearing Eva Gabor from their Green Acres Pad. We all know New York is really where they want to be.

A good time was had by all and they played until they narrowed it down to either Solicitor Peacock or Colonel Mustard being the bad guys who did in Boddy Black. Those were the days…

After sorting through the coats that were pilled on top of the bed in the “master” bedroom they got ready to go home just as Jim Backus announced “I Married Joan,” they all agreed that everyone Loved Lucy.

The category is Sitcoms in the Sixites. We’ll take Columbo for $1000.00 Please. And I quote – “Just one more thing. There’s something that bothers me. One more question from my Wife. What did you pay for those shoes?” Make it a great Saturday and step up your Wheel of Fortune.
