Features: DVD
Before The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Murphy Brown and Ally McBeal, there was That Girl. The groundbreaking situation comedy starring Marlo Thomas, which debuted in 1966, was the first to feature a young, single, independent female character. Ann Marie's pursuit of her dream - to be an actress in New York - and her adventures with her boyfriend, Donald Hollinger (Ted Bessell), and her doting parents (Lew Parker and Rosemary DeCamp) become wildly popular and brought four Thomas Emmy nominations and a Golden Globe Award. Here are all 30 episodes from the historic first season, along with rare bonus footage and interviews!
"...an entertaining precursor to sitcoms like The Mary Tyler Moore Show." A.J. Carson, TvDvdReviews.com
"For anyone who's ever gone after a dream, for anyone who's ever tried to make it on their own--That Girl is for you!" Cynthia Boris, DVD Verdict
"...a funny, smart, cute show with two enormously appealing actors working in perfect synch." Paul Mavis, DVD Talk
Editor's Note
Starring an endearing Marlo Thomas as Ann Marie, the "girl" of the title, THAT GIRL was a classic TV show and a forerunner of the MARY TYLER MOORE SHOW in its portrayal of an independent woman determined to make it on her own. Living in New York City and attempting to start a career as an actress, Ann Marie also finds time in her busy schedule for her boyfriend, Don (Ted Bessell). Lew Parker plays Ann Marie's father, and Dabney Coleman costars as well.
