DVD Reviews of That Girl: Season Three
DVD Review: Definitely That Girl's for me..
Summary: 5 Stars
When I was growing up, I used to watch Marlo Thomas in That Girl, and loved the show because she was rather a modern day version of Lucy at the time. But what I really liked was nothing really got Ann Marie down, when she was determined, she got things done... even if they didn't quite work out the way she wanted it to.
Of course, she always had problems with Don and her father when making the odd decisions (like when Ann's agent suggested she change her name to a more suitable stage name), but somehow Ann always came through.
Sometimes Ann would get into fixes without even trying. For instance, in "Bad Day at Marvin Gardens," Ann's parents decide to go to the city to a baseball game and attend the theater with Ann and Don. Regrettably an unexpected rainstorm washes out the afternoon game, so the four decide on playing a game of Monopoly. When the competition ends up with just Don and Mr. Marie, the game heats up where Mr. Marie offers to buy Don's Marvin Gardens, but Don refuses. Realizing it's just a game, Don decides to graciously give the property to Lou Marie.
Regrettably Lou views this as an absolute insult with him proclaiming: "Nobody gives Lou Marie Marvin Gardens!" As a result Don and Lou end up brooding over the entire matter up to when they go to the theater. Naturally Ann and her mom, Helen, attempt to qualm the dispute. But when Helen sides with Don, Lou angrily gets a separate room at their hotel.
And you thought the Ricardos and the Mertzes had problems!
But I do give kudos to Shout! Factory for keeping the original uncut versions of the episodes intact. Because when I watched them syndicated [even on Nick at Nite, C Channel (now Comedy Central), and TV Land], I never knew networks cut out scenes for time constraints. Here I get to see the episodes intact and jog my memory of how some of the episodes originally went vs. my addled brain (I was about four when I watched the reruns and some of the episodes on ABC).
Personally I wish Shout! Factory could make a deal with Ms. Thomas and Rankin Bass to include the Saturday ABC Movie Special, "That Girl in Wonderland," where Ann works for a children's book publisher, and envisions herself as the classic stars of famous storybook characters.
Especially since the First Season's hidden nugget had the original That Girl pilot [where Bessel played as Thomas' agent, and later inspired Episode #11 'What's in the Name?'], while the Second Season's gem had Marlo's never-aired pilot, "Two's Company." I think would be great if they used that with either this Season or an upcoming Season.
Anyway, this series is definitely a must for anyone who fondly remembers That Girl, or is a fan of classic television. I definitely recommend That Girl for everyone's TV Land DVD collection.
Description of That Girl: Season Three
Before The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Murphy Brown and Ally McBeal, there was That Girl. The groundbreaking situation comedy starring Marlo Thomas debuted in 1966 and was the first to feature a young, independent female character. The wildly successful, award-winning show continues into the third season bringing to life the comedy of Ann Marie?s antics as a single girl in New York, her acting pursuits and her relationship with Donald Hollinger (Ted Bessell.)Bestsellers in DVD
