This was my first comedy series I listened to when I got my vintage radio app. What a great show.

Joe

I have an Our Miss Brooks DVD where they end up together.

Erin

OMG really?! Mr. Boynton asks her to marry him? What is it called? I NEED IT!!!!!!!

Violet

Ehh it was alright. I enjoyed it.

Annette

I like the radio program. I sort of gravitate toward the comedies, though.

Tracy

The movie is a bit rushed, but she does wind up with Mr. Boynton, when the best ending would for her to wake up and realize Mr. Boyton is gay.

John

What is that movie episode? I guess that would be a cool ending even though I'm glad they didn't because I really want them to be together.

Violet

Yeah, sort of. In the movie, but never in the radio show, or the short lived tv show. But Gildersleeve movies didn't seem to be quite in the same universe as the radio show, so maybe Connie was the same?

Andrew

I did chuckle a lot at the episode where they're collecting clothes for the needy and Connie gets to say to Mr Boynton "Go into my room and take off your clothes!". I wonder what sort of look she gave him when they had the rehearsal for that episode

Michael

When it was originally broadcast, she was MISS Brooks... Ms. hadn't been invented yet

Sally

well i am glad her rival teacher didnt get him. i cant remember her name but they vied for his attention!

Rhonda

I think 'boink Mr. Boynton' has a nice ring to it.

Ruth

The movie could have been so much better

Regina

Mr. Boynton could have been playing for the other team. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Jerry

"That guy sounds like Mr. Conklin on 'Our Miss Brooks.'" She was right and I was proud!

Tracy

The humor is classic and the cast of characters are the best of OTR radio. What a lift it gives me to listen to an episode of the best radio show ever

Joyce

It took me a long time to get into comedies besides Jack Benny, but Our Miss Brooks is so good!

Jessica

I just watched the movie Our Miss Brooks-my 11-year old recognized it right away!

Sheryl

Love her voice. Very uplifting.

Carlton D Borders

One of my favourite actresses. Eve Arden

Karen

Was very beautiful in her younger days!!!!!!

Clyde

I remember the radio show "our miss brooks". Now that tells a lot about my age!!!!

Vivian

Remember her chasing Mr Boyington in Our Miss Brooks, boy that guy for a teacher was dumb not to realize a good thing. Who was the funny old lady that owned the house where she bordered? Recall her cat was called Minerva

Dennis

Beautiful lady Eve Arden

Olga

So beautiful

Barbra

thanks so much for sharing-one of the great actresses! loved her in old movies (she was soo funny in the Grease movie too!) and tv-with Kaye Ballard.

Marisa

Favorite line..." Be an Athletic Supporter". Remember what movie it was from???? Love her on Our Miss Brooks on Sirius !

Kali

Love hearing her on "Our Miss Brooks" and seeing her alongside Joan Crawford in "Mildred Pierce".

Rickey

Love this sassy, classy lady, as Our Miss Brooks or in any vintage movie

Pat

Our Miss Brooks. Love the show. Watched all the shows in early 50's

Nancy

Loved that show it was so funny

MaryAnn

Loved our miss brooks in the 50's Very funny,

Patricia

I loved OUR MISS BROOKS. It would be great if they put it out on DVD.

Harry

I loved it on TV (in reruns) when I was a kid... rediscovered it in the last few years via OTR, sometimes better than the TV show; mostly the same cast.

John

Eve Arden - my all time favorite actress!!

Windi

Crenna ended up often playing tough guy roles as a movie and TV actor later in his career--and doing a great job in such roles. That's one reason I like his performance as Walter so much--it's so different from what he did later on. Who would have imagined Walter Denton growing up to be Rambo's commanding officer? I guess dealing with Osgood Conklin prepares you for anything.

Tim

Good actor!

Gary

I love Our Miss Brooks!

Jack

Our Miss Brooks is my favirote

Jean

Our Miss Brooks

Jean

One of my favorites!

Pauline

The big question I've had for a long time: WHERE are all the episodes from 1952?

radiotales

I was listening to Our Miss Brooks today when I was struck by what seemed to be a laugh track in the recording. We are all aware of laugh tracks on many of today’s inane TV comedies. I am wondering if any of the OTR shows had laugh tracks. Were all the old shows with laughter performed before a studio audience?

Don

Wish more episodes of Our Miss Brooks were available

Stuart

One of my favorite radio and TV shows

Bonnie

There is a nice file on CD 1 with program history, and a list of the programs on the CDs. This series is one of the best situation comedy series ever aired on radio, later telecast on TV. Former chorus girl, Eve Arden played Madison High School English teacher Connie Brooks, who was always chasing her heart throb, Mr Boynton, who was played by Jeff Chandler (Robert Rockwell in 1951). Connie was always running afoul of Principal Osgood Conklin, who was played by the master radio actor, Gale Gordon. Fantastic great radio comedy.
