i have been on a You Tube frenzy today. please forgive. who thinks the opening theme to *Gimme a Break* coulda been a pop hit?

I'm addicted to youtube. My favorite search of the week has been gameshow clips, specifically Password Plus and Super Password. I've watched a lot of the Match Game clips, and recently started in on '70's Price Is Right clips (trying to guess the prices is a hoot).

Nell Carter...

There is a sight that has a bio of her and other famous dead people called "find a death.com". I don't remember if she died of diabetic complications or what??.....Bill in Az...

The theme to "Gimme a break" was one of the catchiest tunes around. I bet anyone over 30 can sing it like it was aired yesterday. I am surprised it was never a hit. BTW, Nell Carter was quite a singer herself.

Gimme A Break was a good show and Nell Carter was great. That was when a few good shows still came out of Hollywood....and they lasted on the air....nowadays, I see sitcoms come and go....

There's an episode where they went to the New Orleans World's Fair. I actually got to witness some of the filming. The kids were trying to get Nell to go on the large ferris wheel and she was resisting. I can't blame her for that. I'll ride any rollercoaster but don't get me on those rickety ferris wheels.
