hard to believe that any of them were still alive
A pretty funny show. I haven’t seen watched it in years. Rest in Peace. I think it is so unfortunate that she died on a holiday. I feel so sorry for the family. There should be a law......lol.
Sad to hear that.
What an iconic program that was.
I thought that was Joyce Randolph...
Great Caesar's Ghost! Those people were funny!
That was great, old original TV. A sparse set and the actors’ characters carried the day.
Though, it has to be said that much of early TV was derived from the great radio programs of those times.
I saw her when she made an appearance at the opening of a new toy store in Jacksonville, FL back in the 60s. I was just a kid, of course, but I remember it well. RIP.
I always enjoyed Kean’s interpretation of Trixie. She had a funny, old-fashioned, sort of ‘vaudeville-esque’ way of delivering lines. Made things seem funny and create a laugh even if the line was a groaner. Joan Davis was good at that too.
I think Jean was sister to Betty Kean, who appeared in a few films back in the early-1940s, and was known for her quirky, humorous dance routines. I remember her mostly from an old Republic b-comedy starring Dennis O’Keefe.
RIP.
Joyce Randolph, who played Trixie on the original series, turns 95 today.
