3:00 Ryan asks:You know the first thing I did this morning? She should have said: “What,looked in the mirror and threw kisses to yourself?”
He’s so vain..he always thinks the songs are about him. lol
3:02 Ryan asks:”You know what I did first this this morning when I woke up?”She shoulda said: “Looked in the mirror and threw kisses to yourself”
YUCK….can’t stand that man! He’s so vain…he always thinks the song is about him

Peyton Place inspired Knots Landing in the 80s which in turn inspired Desperate Housewives & One Tree Hill in the 00s
that ryan was handsome back in the day…mmmmmm:)
Peyton Place (Gilmanton, New Hampshire). GraceMetalious ripped the lid off of the stench-filled community; & they despised her for it. Instead of appreciating the fact that she let some fresh air into the staid, puritanical caldron; the reaction was torrid shunning. How anal can one town be? I’ve interviewed folks there, (who referred to Grace as “Gracie” in an affectionate tone); who quietly seemed happy she wrote what she did.She is buried in Gilmanton Iron Works, Smith Meeting House Cemetery

I was nine in 1964,but didn’t start seeing Peyton Place until 1966. I was eleven then and was initially infatuated with Allison.:-)
Peyton Place aired nothing but new episodes even during the summer months-and in it’s second season was on three times a week.I was caught up in so many of the storlyines-as were my brother, my mother and both my grandmothers.(Chuckle!)
I gave up seeing Peyton Place at about the time Dorothy Malone and Tim O’Conner left.
Great Acting…….I don’t know why I let this pass me by, maybe because I was only 9 when the series started and 14 when it ended. I do remember it in the backround while I was doing other things.
Ah such wonderful memories of this back in the 1960′s. My late mother liked this series, I had such a crush on Mia Farrow and I was only 8 or 9 in 1964. I was always stunned by Franz Waxman’s composition, those titles, the acting was so real then, as now. Special for me was the closing titles, as

would appear sometimes before or after the 20th Century Fox animation in glorious black and white and would now like to buy the DVD’s.
I rented the first season on netflix. wish they had more available. i was about 12yrs old when peyton place first aired. love the theme song too!!
5:03 (Betty) “Welcome to our Puritan village.” I guess between a pillory & a ’64 T-Bird …(it’s like night & day). Speaking of which at 1:23 it’s behind Allison. 10secs later it’s gone! 2:05 it’s there again. 2:20 she walks toward it!
The people at + 0:30 they walk into *a picture*. (2nd scene of the abc series, but) those buildings are NOT a part of what became the main square of the nighttime soap.
In the original movie (& prob. the novel) Betty was a tramp. And treated as such, (a rather minor character). By ’64 guess mores were achangin’. Thus the part about the pillory, (“But like every girl in today’s PP..knowing it didn’t stop her from giving her love.” Pretty bold for 1964.). Reminds you of NE Salem witch trials & The Scarlet Letter.
Imagine Betty in the backseat of a shiny new T-bird, there’s something to be said about the pre-free love 1960s!

i wish i could get this in the UK. looks incredibly ahead of its time.
“Was I?”
“Yes you were.”
hihi
Mia Farrow is adorable
Wow! I can’t believe they had story lines like this way back then!
I thought that like all actors in Woody Allen movies, she took on his stutter – but here she is stuttering long before she…she…she…met him!
BARBARA PARKINS WAS SEXY -
