There was an episode of the golden Girls too where there were supposed to be waiting for a dishwasher repairman, but there was no dishwasher to be seen in the kitchen! There was also another episode where Blanche walks into the kitchen after (off stage) doing some laundry, saying that they need more blee ashe, of course, meaning bleach!

Partridge Family

I don't remember a washer and dryer on that show, but I do know the kitchen appliances were Magic Chef..
 
Laundry Set on "Married With Children"

"jons1077"

Actually, I believe (and almost certain) that the 1972-73 Garage Door Keyboard Lady Kenmore Set that was seen on Married With Children was Avacodo, and not Coppertone.

But anyway, I find it unbelievable that an el-cheapo tightwad like Al Bundy could not afford to give his wife Peggy a state of the art kitchen, or afford a decent car for his family to get around in, but he can afford a Lady Kenmore Washer and Dryer set. After all, weren't those expensive back in the early/mid 1970's????

Looks like a first generation A806S.

I don't know the color prefix letter, but it looks to have a suds saver. Note the blue lower portion of the control panel and the chrome strip across the front.
Beautiful machine, all that turquoise and chrome, it just screams clean! How far off from a match was the turquoise cabinet from the turquoise agitator? Also, did this machine sudslock? I doubt it! I love that Maytag sprayrinse!

Hi Guys

Just thought of something after reading this post.

We get Home Improvement over this side of the water on our ABC channel. Im sure there have been 2 lots of washers and dryers. Both Frigidaire I think. One set were 1-18s im sure as the washer had a window in the middle of the lid.The other set I think were 1960s models.

I was watching a show once and after the knowledge I have aquired on here I remember saying to the screen...Those are 1-18s!

Home Improvement, and Brady Whirlpools

I believe that the first set on Home Improvement may have been an 80s White Westinghouse pair.

The Brady Whirlpools were either 1970 models, or perhaps 1969. The first time they were shown was during the first season. I cannot remember exactly when the episode aired, but it was the episode where the family thought Jan was allergic to Tiger, and everyone was bathing the poor dog to prevent her from sneezing. Both Mike and Alice (separately) bathed him in the laundry room with the Whirlpools in the background.

Have a good one,
James
