Ann B Davis - RIP

I wonder how much her role would change today---the live in house keeper to a bunch of whiny suburban kids who were jealous of one another and couldn't clean up their rooms.

In today's world, what do you think each kid would be getting into, and do you think Alice would be covering for them?

Wouldn't change at all except the man of the house would be belittled and there'd be the odd subtext re feminism, gay marriage and cancer.

Kids doing drugs of all kinds. Talking back to the parents, rebelling by dating ____ (place whatever minority or subculture).

Back then it was pot now it's other shit. Kids will always be dickheads... ie kids. Parents are the problem. If your kid is a dick it;s your fault 9/10 times.

I agree.

Even later in her life as an old lady you could tell she had some talent in the female comedian role.

In my area, in those "before cable was everywhere" days shows I don't really ever remember it being on much.

Seems like they played cartoons in the morning, then in the middle of the day you would have Andy Griffith, Gomer Pyle, Leave it to Beaver etc then you'd catch The Brady bunch followed by Ninja Turles, Chip and Dale plus the rest of the cartoon and at night they would have on MASH and stuff like that.
