I just rediscovered random episodes of this wonderful 1960's television series on YouTube! Thank you! Now (someone) please put all of the seasons on DVD!!! (I have never seen the movie with Loretta Young on which this was supposedly based, but I'm not a fan of fake Swedish accents either so I probably won't watch it when it is offered on TCM.)
I was just a young elementary schooler when I first discovered this series and found it appealingly entertaining even then! Maybe that is when I first fell in love with the handsome and charming William Windom--I always wondered when--and continued during his multiple appearances as Dr. Seth Hazlitt on "Murder, She Wrote" where he had an easygoing and convincing rapport with Angela Lansbury-coincidentally both Librans! Regardless, I have been an ardent fan of his and that is more than likely when it first blossomed.
Additionally, the beautiful Inger Stevens' accent was cute, unusual and fascinating too. She had an interesting uplift hairdo as well! (It was sad and shocking to much later discover her suicide and not just because we shared the same birthday, but different year.)
I have also admired Cathleen Nesbitt in every movie or television episode subsequent to this series, especially in the movie "Separate Tables" which I didn't discover until many years after this series aired, but was made prior to this series. The "chairlift" that she rode on the show's family staircase absolutely fascinated me and I swore that one day I would own one too!!! (And it may be sooner than I think!)
After just now perusing the list of actors that appeared during the series' run, I had no idea so many of my favorites appeared, Harold Gould to name one in particular.
Please offer this on DVD! Thank you in advance!
