That Girl: There Was a Time Ann Met a Pie Man

That Girl: There Was a Time Ann Met a Pie Man
ABC
February 13, 1969
Sitcom
DVD
B-

Milt Rosen's second of two TG scripts is kind of odd because Ann and her father both react to her getting a pie in the face on TV as if she's done a nude scene or something equally "shameful."  Still, I like the scene where Ann uses Donald as a sounding board and herself looks at both sides of taking the part, while he calmly eats and doesn't say a word.

This time Jesse White plays Hal Grissom, and he warns Ann against "hypothetical needles."  Maida Severn was Miss Stoddard on Gidget and is the Elderly Lady here.  Wardrobe Lady Lea Marmer had been made two earlier TG appearances.  Gene Baylos, who's Mort here, would be an Agent later.  And Renata Vanni plays Mrs. Brentano for the last time.
