Post by: Uncle Roger on January 08, 2021, 12:12:17 AM: Well, for one episode identical cousins Patty and Cathy Lane were joined by yet another identical cousin named Betsy. If DC had seen the episode, I'm sure that he would would have found some way to work it into the show

Funny thing, a few years back I DVRed all the eps of The Patty Duke Show and watched them but I don't recall the Betsy ep. I wonder if MeTV accidentally skipped it? When I get the chance I'm going to have to check things out because I actually saved all the eps I recorded so that I could watch them again sometime...)

(I just watched it and, nope, I'd never seen it before. If I had, I would have never forgotten that blonde wig - and I never would have forgotten that Betsy was secretly Erica Kane's sister! (If you have no idea what that second part's about, check out the guest cast. [snow_wink]) I guess MeTV accidentally skipped it during the run I'd DVRed. I'm going to have to count the eps I have and compare the total to how many were produced to make sure I'm not missing any others. The nice thing is that thanks to my DVR my recordings include the ep's titles and the dates they originally aired.)

Post by: Uncle Roger on February 19, 2021, 04:17:58 AM: Got it! As I'm sure that you knew that I would.

I don't think that any DS actors appeared in any of the Patty Duke episodes, though I'm sure that a lot of them were in NYC at the time.

We did manage to parody the theme song, with lyrics describing Chris and Tom Jennings, in The Loco Motion.

(Just imagine if as a favor Patty Duke had made a guest appearance on DS while Costello was there!!)

Post by: Mysterious Benefactor on May 25, 2021, 11:14:28 PM: ([pointing-up] Not to mention Patty Duke guesting on DS would have turned Joan Crawford's appearance on The Secret Storm into an even bigger joke than it already was!!)

Post by: Uncle Roger on May 25, 2021, 11:35:39 PM: It certainly would have made DS into more of a media circus than it already was. If such a thing were possible.
