Recently I was getting many videos of night talk shows with famous actresses when they first found fame in my KZitem feed. The thing that astounded me was how very intelligent they were for their age. Drew Barrymore, for instance was a brilliant but funny little girl. Jodie Foster at 8 or 10 could keep up with a 40 year old adult easily. The only exception to that was the Olson twins. Both as dumb as tree-stumps. I guess they started their show when they were babies and the show runner couldn't tell how stupid they were. But the show was popular for other reasons and they became famous and rich. No, Virginia, there is no fairness in the world.

I do not understand why people are so outraged by the clip. Mrs. Livingston is giving a lesson to the young Jodie Foster character to teach her of JAPANESE CULTURE, not American culture. And she did it to try and teach her patience, respect, manners, etc. There are many cultures in this world, and just because they are not like your own, does not make them wrong. This is an accurate portrayal of Mrs. Livingston's culture, AND in the 1960's.

I don't think people are outraged. They know this is from the 1960s, so they're just kind of disgusted, not outraged. We can see that there's a sense that this lesson will do her so much good...The idea is that she needs to be taught to stop bullying in a gendered context, and it goes along with becoming passive and subservient to men. As for the concept of using the Japanese culture to teach this lesson, well...placing women in the second-class role is certainly not specific to Japanese culture, so I wouldn't really say it's about Japanese culture, though nice try by the TV show to mask it as such. Again, I'm not blaming them, or feeling angry at them.. It's just very telling of our culture and historically where we've come from. This is my childhood time, Jodie Foster is almost exactly my age, and I appreciate the cultural lesson here, but it's more about American culture than Japanese IMO.

This was based on the 1963 theatrical feature based on the same title starring Glenn Ford and Ronnie Howard. The television version ran for three seasons on ABC-TV from 1969 until 1972. The executive producer of this series was James Komack,the creator of the later "Welcome Back Kotter",and "Chico and the Man".

This TV show was made in the late 1960s and it is very dated. This episode would be considered very politically incorrect now, but back then the attempts of Eddie's father and Ms Livingston to make "Joey" act more feminine was considered the right thing to do. Also what Joey said to Ms Livingston would be considered very politically incorrect too, that she talks funny because she is Japanese

The sad truth is that most people don't want equality. They want either to serve or be served. At the time this show was made, men were still the prime bread winners. It was reasonable to expect the women to pay their share in other ways. Equality means equal responsibility, as well as equal rights. Despite women having equal or better earning potential, men are still expected to be providers. Look at the ads for diamonds around the holidays. It is women who have clung onto the stereotypes.

From the outside, it may appear Japanese wives are subservient. But the truth is, the wife rules. She chooses almost everything, from what food will be eaten to how much allowance the husband will receive. In Japanese culture, when a husband goes to work he is "subservient" to his boss and customers. And when he returns home, this is just a simple way she tries to show her appreciation. But I can understand how many feel becuz how in European and U.S history men have treated women.

I don't think the show itself was necessarily being sexist. I think the show was discussing women's liberation at a time when it was only beginning to be discussed on TV. Regardless of the views of individual characters in the script it was written in '72(?) and was, maybe, gently pointing out the obsurdity of the custom. I don't know if you're old enough to remember, but he "battle of the sexes" became popular tv fodder by the late 70s.
