The Great Gildresleeve is pretty darned good
5 July 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Were the Gildersleeve films great cinema? No. But they were fun.

Billie Burke is along this time, and while a little bit of her goes a long ways, this time she works well in the story.

In this episode Gildersleeve is in love, but Billie Burke has her eye on Gilkdersleeve. Meanwhile Gildersleeve's actual girl friend decides to check up on him while he is in New York City. And, as usual, the plot revolves around misunderstandings and coincidences.

Richard LeGrand plays the local druggist. He was a regular on radio shows ("Well, I wouldn't say that!")He has a bigger than usual part here.

Although certainly typecast, Harold Peary really was quite entertaining as Gildersleeve. There are some gay overtones here, but all in good fun.

Great for an hour of fun!
