A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

This is an engaging little series that I grew up with, hearkening back to a more innocent age of cute family programming. It revolves around a bachelor engineer, Bill Davis, who has been living a carefree playboy life in his Fifth Avenue apartment. His household needs are tended to by his very efficient English butler, Giles French. Suddenly Bill's life is turned upside down when he inherits three young relatives, who have been orphaned as the result of a car accident. Both Uncle Bill and Mr. French must accustom themselves to this trio of newcomers, pretty 15 year old Cissy and her adorable but challenging younger twin siblings, Buffy and Jodie.Brian Keith is wonderful as Uncle Bill, the playboy uncle turned surrogate father. The younger stars are also perfect in their roles, especially little Anissa Jones who plays Buffy. Sebastian Cabot is the real jewel of the series in his brilliant portrayal of the butler, Mr. French, who always appears so very proper and gruff but is actually quite charmed by these three kids.Various amusing and touching scenarios would unfold weekly as the two adults and their three charges grew accustomed to life together. For me, the show was notable (apart from the butler) for Mrs. Beasley, Buffy's bespectacled granny doll. She was a prominent feature in most episodes, always getting lost or whatever, and naturally Buffy was VERY attached to her. All in all, it was a sweet, heartwarming show from nostalgic years of yore when kids were, happily, much less sophisticated than they are today. Pity there aren't more such family programs these days and a demand for them.

This show was entertaining in its day, but was typical of the warped writers of TV-land who didn't know how to show a mature intelligent married couple. Just about every sitcom show was about a single-parent family after "Father Knows Best" and "Leave It To Beaver" went off the air.(but heavens, no, it can't be divorce or abandonment!). Ah, those were simpler times. Even when "All In The Family" came along, they had to make one partner a total ditsy rather than show an intelligent loving couple.Didn't anyone wonder about the "Confirmed bachelor" and his prissy "live-in butler"? Whereabouts in New York did they live- close to the Village? Hmmm.

This Character is a native of Terre Haute, Indiana was born on January 5, 1951. Her private childhood was all peaches and cream being as the daughter/first child of Bob & Mary Patterson. In 1960, She founded her love of the twin children named Buffy & Jody. In 1965, A Tragic Moment in the Patterson Family, Bob & Mary Patterson were driving to the drug store and suddenly, they hit at the intersection of the unknown streets and making her and the twins can go to 3 different houses. A year later, They're all together again in New York, New York at their Uncle's Penthouse Apartment. Throughout the course of the program, She's a busy girl like her mother (Mary), wearing a closet full of clothes and dresses to look attractive herself and her hair made an few changes from-time-to-time.

I remember watching this in the mid-1960s; today I don't know why I bothered. A syrupy sweet family show that grates on my nerves now, I personally think that Sebastian Cabot's character of Mr. Giles French was the only truly great thing about it.People who think that everything about TV nowadays is indeed a "vast wasteland" compared to the "good old days" of television should sit down and watch this tripe. Proof positive that worthless television was available even then to the undiscerning.
