Synopsis

That Girl is an American sitcom that ran on ABC from 1966 to 1971. It stars Marlo Thomas as the title character Ann Marie, an aspiring actress, who moves from her hometown of Brewster, New York to try to make it big in New York City. Ann has to take a number of offbeat "temp" jobs to support herself in between her various auditions and bit parts. Ted Bessell played her boyfriend Donald Hollinger, a writer for Newsview Magazine; Lew Parker and Rosemary DeCamp played Lew Marie and Helen Marie, her concerned parents. Bernie Kopell, Ruth Buzzi and Reva Rose played Ann and Donald's friends. That Girl was developed by writers Bill Persky and Sam Denoff, who had served as head writers on The Dick Van Dyke Show earlier in the 1960s.

Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
Micransix Crappy film
julierom I loved the series as a child during its first run. Buying the DVDs seemed like a great way to bring back the fun of the 60s and early 70s. In retrospect, Marlo Thomas is a fine actress and comedienne but the majority of the episodes portray her as a scatterbrained, flighty, bird brain air head! If I had been Donald I would have broken up with her after the first few dates! The character is beyond annoying! She gets on your nerves and one just wants to slap her most of the time. There are some episodes that are charming where her character is lovable and endearing but these are the exception! And forget the independence nonsense. She couldn't do anything without Donald. He was the glue that held the show together, in my opinion. Taking nothing from Marlo Thomas's portrayal, I'm sure Miss Thomas is a nice lady but I want to shake "That Girl" into sanity. They really should have gotten married at the end since I don't think anyone but Don could tolerate her excitability and air headedness for more than 5 minutes!
schmidtkenn11 I loved this show because Marlo Thomas was so wonderful and an icon of the sixties woman and New York actresses! She was not only energetic and perky, but quirky in a completely wholesome way. Plus her eyes are ENORMOUS, like a classic animated Disnet heroine. And of course she has the mandatory sixties hairstyle also sported by Barbara Parkins in Valley of the Dolls and Mary Tyler Moore later on! LOL They're showing a That Girl marathon right now on MeTV, including the rarely shown pilot directed by Jerry Paris from The Dick Van Dyke Show! And I'm watching it. One question: Does anyone know what Donald's last name was in the original pilot? (Hint: It's not the same as it was in later episodes.)
bedfordfalls To many of us born in the fifties and becoming teen-age girls by the mid-late 60's, THAT GIRL was THE show to tune in to and see the hair and fashions and enjoy the comedy. My very favorite episode is when Donald tries to teach Ann to drive his manual (stick) shift car!!! The chemistry between the two actors is just great. Marlo Thomas is adorable in this series. The show was well casted and polished. My best friend in the 60's and I never missed an episode on Tuesday nights and now they are available on wonderful DVDs to enjoy again and again. Hollywood did not spoil Marlo, as she went on to author several wonderful books and of course, carry on her father's work for St.Jude Hospital for the children. She is to be admired.
catwoman10301963 I love this light hearted comedy. Marlo Thomas is so sweet. Her wardrobe was very hip! She wore the coolest clothes. The show had many guest stars like her dad Danny Thomas, Ethel Merman, Milton Berle,and Sid Caesar. Ted Bessell was the perfect choice to play Ann Marie's boyfriend. They had a wonderful chemistry on screen and remained close friends till his death in 1997. Season 1 & 2 are available on DVD now. So go and buy them and enjoy! The show took our minds off of what was really going on in the world. The Vietnam war was raging, the civil rights movement was tearing the nation apart, and Dr. Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy were murdered during the shows run from 1966-1971.
