What a great television show, filled with all types of slapstick comedy; misunderstandings; farce; portrayals of Los Angeles life; and.... girls!! This television show was so incredibly provocative for its time and remains one of the very funniest shows of all time.
John Ritter is absolutely one of the funniest comedians ever. Joyce, Suzanne, Jennilee, Don, Richard, and Priscilla, are fantastic also.
You all know the basic plot and premise for this television show.
I cannot, for anything in this world, understand how the Ropers were ever allowed to be on the show. Their portrayal of a married couple, is ridiculous, goofy, and extremely annoying to watch, even when we viewed it over 30 years ago. Besides Norman Fell constantly both breaking the fourth wall, and laughing at his own jokes (neither of which ever worked), their goofball attitudes and antics, are disturbing and not enjoyable. Mrs. Roper's remarks always, and I do mean always, about Mr. Roper's lack of, shall we say, romantic and love desires, is ridiculous, and gets very old after the first time or two. How they ever received their own spin off television show, is almost impossible to understand.
Excellent writers, actors, and others, make this a fantastic television show to watch.

Even Groucho himself did not like this picture, and I cannot understand why everyone says it is bad.
It is a fine movie, and as everyone states here, it is to showcase Harpo, and he is excellent in Love Happy. Great pantomime and excellent special effects.
To see Vera-Ellen, and Marlyn, and a cast of other known greats, is a real treat. The eventual conclusion of the missing diamonds, was a real surprise, yet quite nice.
A great way to end their film career together. I liked this one more than several from their golden age.

How well I remember at age 6, living in Los Angeles, when this movie came out. It and the TV series, were nearly as enormous as Beatlemania. Massive promotions, this movie was mainly for the kiddies. Other reviewers here, provide details, so I will highlight some other aspects of it.
The movie is far more camp, than the first season on TV, which, especially the first 10 or so two-part TV episodes, is the best introduction to Batman, ever.
Still, the movie makes for excitement; camp comedy (played as straight, of course); special effects; and something most fail to realize, to see all four of the main villains (understanding, of course, for Meriwether) all together, is sheer excitement, no question.
It is also "boss" for Angelinos to see film sets, which are places we grew up near.
