PatriciaAnne, it is so great to know you liked Suzanne Pleshette. She was always known as a dramatic actress, until The Bob Newhart Show. I LOVED my Mom's 3 appearances on Bob's show. On the first one she was a patient who loved using those nerf paddles to get out aggression; her 2nd performance was as Suzanne's personal assistant when Suzanne was a school principal and her last episode was as a school board member discussing whether a book on sex education should be included in the school library. In one close up, I can see the pearl and diamond ring she left me. These performances of my Mom were a bit out of the ordinary, since she usually played characters that were maids, nurses or nannies or roles in which she looked bad. There was a "Gunsmoke" episode that I recall, but can't remember the show's name , she looked absolutely awful! But, in the Bob Newhart shows she looked so pretty and dressed so well. It was fun to see her in those roles! Also, I don't know if a lot of people know that the idea for that scene in bed with Bob and Suzanne where Bob dreamed away a whole show was his wife Ginnie's idea. She thought of it at a party she and Bob were at and Suzanne Pleshette was at the same party and Bob went up to ask if she would do it and Suzanne LOVED the idea - and the rest, as they say, is history! Tracie, I didn't know that! How cool. They say behind every great man is a great woman. 😉 Quick funny story...I sent my husband out for a gift at a semi-local shop whose name sounds like Newhart, but not quite. On the way out he said (being funny), "I'm going out to see Bob Newhart." I told him that if he really wanted to say hello to Bob Newhart, I knew someone who was friends with him and could deliver the message. 😁 So if you happen to talk to Bob in the near future, do tell him that Dave & Pat from New York are big fans and send their warm regards. 💗💗💗

PatriciaAnne - I am hoping to see Bob within the next few months. If I do, I will absolutely extend warm greetings from Pat and Dave! I agree that behind every great man there is a woman - but, I believe that woman deserves top billing!

So, I can say unequivocally that he is the “real deal.” What’s not to love about him?!?
