"The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis" remains an anomaly in early 60's television. When the tube was focused on picture-perfect mothers ('Donna Reed'), loving fathers ('Ozzie and Harriet', 'Leave It to Beaver'), "Dobie Gillis" featured the cantankerous Frank Faylen as 'Herbert T. Gillis' who was often heard to threaten: "I've gotta kill that boy!" The somewhat less-than-glamorous Florida Friebus played Dobie's loving mother, Winnie. There was a beatnik character, Maynard G. Krebs, who is sublime as portrayed by Bob Denver. (Denver went from sublime to silly with his 'Gilligan' character...what a shame).
The central character, Dobie, is played to perfection by Dwayne Hickman. For some reason, Hickman's hair color went from blonde to brunette during the series. The blonde Dobie is funnier to me, as he looks like the mugging baby mama's boy that was the essence of Dobie.
'Seinfeld' has nothing on Dobie, as the series usually followed the flimsy plot of the main character chasing pretty girls all the time. When they stuck to this 'non-plot', the show was at its funniest.
The show stands out in my mind much like 'The Honeymooners' did. The stark reality of the Kramden's 'hovel' was very odd, considering that most sitcoms took place in beautiful 'showcase' homes.
So many original touche...
