THE LOVE BOAT INDEED




THIS IS 46 MINUTES LONG, SO GRAB A DRINK AND 

A CIGARETTE AND REVEL IN 1970s and '80s POP CULTURE.


I was kind of shocked by some of the people I saw. It just blew my mind to see such older luminaries as Virginia Mayo, Olivia deHavilland, Evelyn Keyes, Dorothy Lamour, Dennis Morgan, Patsy Kelley, Lana Turner, Claire Trevor and Walter Slezak. Gloria Vanderbilt was an unexpected surprise too. 

I also noticed that Marla Gibbs (of The Jeffersons fame) is MARIA GIBBS. 

And yes, you will tire of Jack Jones and the theme song since it never, ever ends.


What there are is gobs of TV people, folks who were on other shows. I barely recalled many of them. There were also a bunch of faces & names where I drew a blank. I wondered if there might have been a separate Love Boat UK franchise? I don't remember what night this show aired, but my feeling is Friday and if that's right, then I missed lots of these since I was out trying to get laid.
