March 31, 2024 update: Rest in Peace Barbara Rush

March 31, 2024 update: Actress Barbara Rush has died today, Easter Sunday, at the age of 97. She had a prolific career spanning the decades in film, stage and television, working alongside film actors Paul Newman (The Young Philadelphians, Hombre), Frank Sinatra (Come Blow Your Horn), Rock Hudson (Magnificent Obsession), Dean Martin & Marlon Brando (The Young Lions) and Kirk Douglas (Strangers When We Meet). Born on January 4, 1927, Ms. Rush began her career in 1950 in the film The Goldbergs and co-starred in the sci-fi classic It Came From Outer Space in 1953. By the 1960s, she had begun to segue into television. She played a multitude of roles on television over the years, including series roles in Peyton Place in the late 1960s, Flamingo Road in the early 1980s, and a recurring role on Seventh Heaven in the late 1990s to early 2000s. She guest starred in many iconic television series of the era including The Fugitive, Batman, Marcus Welby MD, Maude, The New Dick Van Dyke Show, The Love Boat, Magnum PI and Murder She Wrote. This video clip we presented here back in January was from her guest appearance on Love American Style. She had a fine career, and lived a long life - she was always one of our favorites here at Television Vanguard and will be missed. May she rest in peace. She is survived by son Christopher Hunter and daughter (and entertainment news reporter) Claudia Cowen. ============================================================================== We continue on with our retrospective of the 1973-1974 television season. Today, we look back at the final season of Love American Style, which ended its network run on ABC fifty years ago last week. Love American Style was a truly charming anthology series from ABC with stories about romance and possibilities. The series had many hands involved in its creation, but of special note must go out to Doug Cramer, At ABC, he helped develop the hit series Peyton Place in the mid 1960s, giving him a sense of what a prime time soap opera could be and something he would tap into years later with the hit series Dynasty. He was also involved with the scheduling and green-lighting of the hit series Batman back in 1965. Over time, Mr. Cramer move to 20th Century Fox, and then to Paramount. It was there that the idea for an anthology series about love and comedy came across his desk, and the rest, as they say is history. Mr. Kramer would go on to work with Aaron Spelling to become two of the most important television producers of the 1970s and 1980s, working on series such as The Love Boat ('Love American Style on water'), Dynasty and Hotel. The shows he touched had a distinctive blend of charm, set design, costumes and large, diverse (for the times) casts. Love American Style was a case in point. The show was ran on the ABC Friday night primetime lineup from September 22, 1969 to January 11, 1974, and each episode featured multiple (often three) stories of romance with a focus on comedy. Over the course of the series, it seemed like all of Hollywood had a role in the series on one episode or another. Charles Fox's music score helped provide cohesion between the various 'vignettes' of each episode. There was also a cast of actors (Barbara Minkus, Stuart Margolin/The Rockford Files, Phyllis Davis/Vegas, James Hampton/F-Troop, Scoey Mitchell and Tracy Reed/Barefoot in the Park and Mary Grover) who often appeared in short 15 second clips in between each vignette. Love American Style was part of the successful Friday night lineup for ABC that included The Brady Bunch, The Partridge Family, Room 222 and The Odd Couple, with Love holding down the 10pm time slot. The series started out as a one hour show from 1969 to 1971, and then was condensed down to a half hour series from 1971 to 1974. We're choosing this opening, with Barbara Rush (one of our favorite actresses), to pay tribute today to Love American Style. This episode vignette is titled 'Love and the Motel', and was first broadcast on ABC on September 25, 1970. A belated Happy Birthday (January 4) to Ms. Rush! May you have many more dear lady. One other final note - one of the writers on this 'Love and the Motel' vignette is none other than Susan Silver, who was a real trail blazer for young female television writers back in the early 1970s. She not only wrote for Love American Style, but was a writer for The Mary Tyler Moore Show as well. We have a link to her YouTube channel in our 'bookmarks' section of Television Vanguard, and she was kind enough to write to us a couple of years ago when she found an interview she gave years ago (on the DVD set for The Mary Tyler Moore Show) in one of our tribute clips to the MTM series. We have that interview in our archives (Sept. 1970 for the 1970-71 Television Season section).
