More Dick Van Dyke Show Appliance Trivia
I am currently watching the Dick Van Dyke show on DVD (complete series).
In the very first episode (The Sick Boy and the Sitter), the kitchen appliances are all by Westinghouse.
There is a wall oven with the controls to the left of the door (looks like a microwave of today), a refrigerator, a cooktop and a dishwasher.
That episode was filmed January 20, 1961
After that episode, the appliances changed to the familiar Caloric oven etc. with no dishwasher.
In the series pilot (with a different cast entitled "Head of the Family") the appliances are all Fridgidaire.
The pilot was from 1959 and starred Carl Reiner.
