A much simpler time, right before LBJ ramped up Vietnam and began the disaster called the "Great Society".
Also Sally Field's start and before "The Flying Nun".
the original movie with Sandra Dee is a scream....its so bad that its good...especially the first 15 minutes....
I had forgotten that Marty Milner was the Great Kahuna.
The beach party movies used the Big Kahuna theme too.
‘Back to the Beach’: What’s a Kahuna anyway and is it important to have a big one?
Jerry Buss’s mom.
I was 7 in 1965. For some reason the only thing in my head about this show is that for a TV dad her dad seemed old. There was probably some 1965 reason for using a professorial looking old guy.
When i see the America that the leftists and the open border neoCONs have completely destroyed, it makes me angry.

Check out the opening surfing scene. Mega cameltoe.
Sally was adorable.
I was in a surfing tournament.
I was riding a wave and the girls were cheering and the guys were clapping.
My trunks had slipped down.
Too bad Sally is a total Stalinazi moonbat flake. I saw her in a Dick Cavett interview from the early ‘70s, and it was clear she was psychologically unbalanced.
Funny… I am of the age to of watched that, but I was out of the country, so I never watched a single episode, So I knew of who she was, but had never seen her or an episode of it.
Just today, I was walking by the television which my wife was watching and I looked up… And I said “good gosh… That has got to be Gidget!”
Never saw her as Gidget before! But there was no mistaking it.
Yes, she was cute back in the day. It’s too bad she has turned into what she has.
Loved those movies.
Watched a few episodes of that “mini marathon”. From the days when entertainment shows usually had a moral component. Mostly “don’t lie, it comes back to bite you”.
Lots of smiles and some chuckles and laughs, killing a couple of hours before our company arrived.
