Dick Van Dyke vs Fannie Flagg

It started when Flagg took exception when he said, "My second show was a success, after all it made Fannie Flagg a household name." Then Fannie, enraged by the suggestion he made her a star,, got even more mad after Van Dyke made the following apology...

..."Yeah, I guess I was wrong, everyone thought she was Rose Marie anyway."

Fannie was very well known for her work on Candid Camera

Fannie was also annoyed at Barbara Eden but not for what she DID but what she WOULDN'T do.

Any links to this, OP?

I only just found out that Fannie and Susan Flannery lived together for eight years circa the '70s. And Rita Mae Brown was in there in some capacity for awhile, too.

𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑝𝑒𝑐𝑡 to anybody who was with Susan Flannery in the 70s

R6 I'd say the same about 1970s Fannie. I now know she was/is a lesbian, but that doesn't change how sexy I feel she is on Match Game. If I had known her then, I'd been like, "you know, I might be a guy but I do enjoy eating pussy, if you ever want to give it a go."

Nancy Dussault said, "if I have to work another year with Fannie Flagg, I'll have to change my name to Nancy Assult-ed"

Erma Bombeck loathed her.

These are all lies and slander! Fannie was a swell gal, and I'm the dame to prove it!

I first became aware of Fannie on the pre-DVD, Candid Camera.

R4 this guy makes up stupid threads about old TV shows all the time. It's obviously some guy who thinks acting like a fuckwit all the time is hilarious.

All those lesbian stories and movies don’t just write themselves, fags! Mama wrote from experience!

R15 Fannie might still be scissoring but in this realm, as she is still alive.

by Anonymousreply 16July 27, 2022 7:02 PM

She was lovely (and loved) on Match Game

For vintage Candid Camera fans, does anyone else remember Marge Greene?

Someone in another thread posted that Gene Rayburn replaced Van Dyke in Birdie. Say it isn't so!

I loved the Wonder Woman pilot episode with Clorice Leachman as the Queen of the Amazons and Fannie Flag as her "helper".

R19, It's true, and Gretchen Wyler replaced Chita.

R5, Did Alexis Smith drop by every so often?

You can never go wrong with a Dick and a Fannie.

She should have gotten Susan Flannery to beat Dick’s face in…
