I read somewhere that Actress Whitney Blake, "Dorothy Baxter", did not know for ten years that Bobby was gone. It was really sad to read about Lynn Borden's death she died a month before my dad did. At this time I'm surprised that "Youtube" are allowing "Hazel" episodes to air. I do remember Bobby doing a commercial for Rockem Sockem robots in the mid-60s. That the audience was only interested in what was presently going on.
Hazel Season 5 will start airing on Antenna TV, Friday, September 23rd.Yes, I will be watching! It was funny, I was watching all the early seasons then, one Saturday, they played like S5 E6. I just want Fans to know that there are chances to buy a copy within their own budget. Great show!!!! Here is a photo of Bobby Buntrock from his 1968 high school yearbook. Season 4 is underway! I was working in the scenic town of Keystone South Dakota, where he lived. I happened upon another blog discussing Shirley Booth and "Hazel". HOW ABOUT MARRYING HER OFF. I was a little tired of buying shows that weren't being sold in their entirety. Nor does she appear again in the Series.
Thank you again! I read that she Co-Hosted a Talk Show that featured such topics as Books, Home Tips and Fashions. "Hazel" was based on the Saturday Evening Post cartoons of Ted Key. No it was tinted for that role. The 5th and final season was missing that wonderful chemistry that had been a hallmark of the show. For all I know her health could have improved and she then decided to go back to work. "My Son the Sheepdog" episode is only a slight exaggeration of how I was treated in 1966 when I stopped using Brycreem and combed my hair in bangs at age 8. Also school was much more sophisticated then than it is now. He moved to New York to sell his work. One Summer me and my sister worked at the racetrack and there were alot of Celebrities there. Of course, I love the first four seasons of "Hazel", but the last season is nice on it's own merits. "Harry" was being transferred and "The Thompson's" needed a temporary place to stay, until they could secure housing. If you must know, I enjoy cats. Just imagine, there are Sellers who would ask for $2,000 FOR Season ONE, just because they know that it is hard to find on the open market, if it is still Factory Sealed.You probably don't have time to do this, however you can look around in other places that sell DVD'S. Dad and Shirley were very close however even after the show ended. Season 3 was released on May 15, 2012. All those years he made no contact and to declare his love at this point would be hard to swallow, especially since Hazel made no reference to him in the last couple of seasons, as far as I can remember. Of course it's all make believe. Anything past season 6 is terrible.Ray Fulmer isn't as bad as Dick Sargent's character on Bewitched. That's it in a nutshell. I would love it if she went into a long dissertation on the absurdity of the way the show handled the Baxters' departure. As to why original cast members DeFore and Blake were written out of the show in season 5, the answers are murky. !I guess they didn't want Hazel to appear to be to educated. I mentioned that Julia Benjamin had written a Book Titled:"Susie...Ain't She A Doozie? Who can forget those bulky Video Cassettes that everybody and their Grandmother had! Maybe when she was picked for the role they had a younger somewhat lookalike of Dorothy in mind. Not like that of the sitcoms of today. They kinda explained it, but I was sure that there had to be something going on behind the sceens. Now Hazel had about three Nephews and a Cousin who showed up on the show. Her first was Ed Gardner, host of radio's old "Duffy's Tavern," on which she played the light-hearted Miss Duffy.
This month marks the fifteenth year since Whitney past away. I plan to explore more of his films in the future. After your comments, people may not feel as comfortable. That was "finished". The ones they tried to use later to keep the show going were shallow and lacked enthusiasm. It was a very "HUMBLING EXPERIENCE". I apologize. These days she would have had other avenues which wouldn't have required that she traveled. Just adding to the conjecture about where the Baxter's live. Of course with most of the selections you have to pay Shipping, Handling, and Tax. That was more than a TYPO. But she was into improving herself.
I am watching Hazel right now as I am writing this post. After she acquired the rights, negotiations went into play and cutting cost was on the agenda. For me, Hazel just ain't the same without Don DeFore to play off her, but those fifth-season episodes are still interesting. Thank you for your service and the entertainment you have brought to many in your career. By the way, Roku Channel now has seasons 1-3 of Hazel available, free with ad breaks. I had bought Season 1 for CHRISTMAS OF 2013. and his accident occurred on a bridge there. Steve Baxter immediately comes off as "missing something" that his brother had. They simply wrote.
They are both attractive blondes and have very friendly personalities. Rick, I was reading one of your comments about Millcreek possibly putting out a Complete Set of "Hazel". Of course HAZEL comes to the rescue and puts George back as the Apple in Harold's Eye. Maybe Hazel comes to visit Rosie and there Barney is delivering the mail and they get together for Dinner and Barnie proposes.Of course this event would bring back and hopefully tie up several loose ends. while My Three Sons was on for 12 years and I guess Fred MacMurray didn't tire of that fatherly role. time were changing the younger aka (boomers) generation were rebelling against the fake authenticity of how family life was depicted on television. It also sure sounded like him. My inclination is that the thinking would be that maybe it would look like Hazel were "abandoning" the Baxters if she got married. Two days ago I saw an episode of "MANNIX", titled: "COFFIN FOR A CLOWN". Here's a link to the 'Rockem Sockem' robot commercial on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPEnig5DHAc. There's no way! Why over the years no one bothered to interview the remaining cast members about the show is beyond me. I am watching Hazel as I'm posting this comment!! I was so young when this show came out. I checked IMDb.com and Bobby was not credited with an appearance on Bewitched. This is why I have mostly stopped contributing to forums like these. However, for "Hazel Fans" who have not bought but intend to buy the series, I've got Good News and Bad News. Not only did "SONY" haves the "RIGHTS" to the first SEASON OF "HAZEL", but also later shows that I enjoyed, like "FANTASY ISLAND" and the first two SEASONS OF "HART TO HART". Now if they had written episodes with Hazel and Deidre clashing with each other, The Thompson's were still looking for suitable housing, that may have been fun and spicy to watch. Did you know his Sister, Stella? Then there was "Eddie Baxter", Hazel's Nephew. You answered many of my questions. The previous post about a celebration at the Black Forest Inn would have been for his 21st birthday. Factory TV is on Amazon prime Video without commercials, and it would be great to see the Baxters there. And so is a storyline. Only "Don Blake", PAUL ENGLE, HAS PASSED AWAY, ABOUT EIGHT MONTHS AGO. I have the full series.Regarding the skipped episodes..I don't know why and I can't speculate but the two missing ones are among my top favorites. Seems shortsighted as the show was a hit show on NBC, keeping the original cast intact might have insured the show went on for a few more seasons.
