MEMORIAL TVXOHOF, MAY, 2019 - ENSIGN CHARLES PARKER

From Variety:
Tim Conway, the agile comedian who was a core member of the “The Carol Burnett Show” troupe and starred in a string of Disney film comedies in the 1970s, died Tuesday morning in Los Angeles. He was 85.

A rep for Conway tells Variety he died from water on the brain.

Over his long career, Conway was nominated for 13 Emmys and won six. For “The Carol Burnett Show,” he was nominated six times as a supporting performer in a variety or comedy series, winning in 1973, 1977 and 1978. He was also nominated as part of the writing staff for the show, drawing three nominations and winning in 1978. In addition to those four Emmy wins, he won in 1996 for outstanding guest actor in a comedy, “Coach,” and in 2008 for guest actor in a comedy for “30 Rock.”

“I’m heartbroken. He was one in a million, not only as a brilliant comedian but as a loving human being,” said Burnett in a statement obtained by Variety. “I cherish the times we had together both on the screen and off. He’ll be in my heart forever.”

Toobworld Central knew that Conway's character of Ensign Charles Parker deserved to be in the Television Crossover Hall of Fame, but it was a matter of when.

ENSIGN CHARLES PARKER

From Wikipedia:
Ensign Charles Beaumont Parker (Tim Conway) — McHale's likable, but goofy second-in-command, he is referred to by McHale as "Chuck" and by the crew as "Mister Parker" (in the U.S. Navy, officers ranking from warrant officer to lieutenant commander who are not in command are often referred to as "Mister"). Tim Conway's bashful, unassertive, naïve, mildly gung-ho bungler often succeeds in spite of clownish ineptitude (a theme that was career-defining). Like Conway, Ensign Parker is from Chagrin Falls, Ohio. Parker was born between about 1916 and 1920 and worked for the Chagrin Falls Gazette.

Although he tries to be military, he is too much of a dimwitted klutz to command too much respect, and many of the episodes involve Parker getting into trouble because of his bumbling and ineptitude such as accidentally firing depth charges or shooting down Allied aircraft. Even before becoming a member of McHale's crew, Ensign Parker's personnel file is a laundry list of major foul-ups, including crashing a destroyer escort into a dock, doing something unspecified in heavy fog to the heavy cruiser USS Minneapolis, and calling in a naval airstrike on a Marine gasoline dump. Because of his considerable bumbling, the crew tries to protect Parker, who they feel will not survive as an officer without their help. Also, he is very slow to catch on and does not know when to keep his mouth closed (McHale usually gives Parker a discreet kick or stomp on the foot to get him to shut up). For instance, when Binghamton says "the cat is out of the bag", Parker says, "I'm sure it's around here somewhere, Sir. Here, kitty kitty".

Parker's catchphrase is "Gee, I love that kind of talk" and he loves to cite naval regulations which he knows by heart, but somehow can never remember his serial number correctly. In the episode titled "The Great Impersonation", Ensign Parker impersonates British General Smythe-Pelly (Conway in a dual role) in Noumea, New Caledonia (where he dodges assassins) while the actual general leads an invasion against Japanese forces. In another Conway dual role, Parker impersonates Admiral Chester "Rockpile" Beaty in "The Seven Faces of Ensign Parker". In "H.M.S. 73", Parker poses as a phony British rear admiral, Sir Reggie Grother-Smyth and impersonates British Admiral Clivedon Sommers in "The British Also Have Ensigns". From time to time, Parker is called upon to fool Captain Binghamton with a voice impersonation of President Franklin D. Roosevelt (Parker also does an impersonation of Roosevelt in McHale's Navy Joins the Air Force).

Since they both hailed from Chagrin Falls, Ohio, and since there are plenty of examples of Real World celebrities who are related to fictional Toobworldlings, it could be that Parker and Conway were “identical cousins” – in the darker interpretation of that phrase.  (Going with that, and since Conway did appear as himself in several fictional settings… stay tuned.)

Ensign Charles Parker only had one official credit to his name in television, that of the TV series ‘McHale’s Navy’.  He didn’t even make it into the dramatic pilot episode “Seven Against The Sea”, shown as part of an anthology series.

From Wikipedia:
McHale's Navy is an American sitcom starring Ernest Borgnine that aired 138 half-hour episodes over four seasons, from October 11, 1962, to April 12, 1966, on the ABC television network. The series was filmed in black and white and originated from an hour drama entitled Seven Against the Sea, broadcast on April 3, 1962.

The ABC series spawned three feature films: McHale's Navy (1964), a sequel McHale's Navy Joins the Air Force (1965), and a much later 1997 sequel-remake of the original series.

Years ago Toobworld Central declared that there were certain movies in the Cineverse which should be instead considered part of the Television Universe centered around Earth Prime-Time.  Among these movies were “Batman 1966”, most of the “Star Fleet” movies (right up to the moment when Spock entered the black hole), and the 1990s version of “Maverick”.  Also included in this group were the two spin-off movies for the sitcom.  So Toobworld Central didn’t just pull the movies in so that Charlie Parker could make it into the Television Crossover Hall of Fame.

So here are the two movies which complete Ensign Parker’s membership requirements for the Hall:

From Wikipedia:

McHale's Navy is a 1964 technicolor movie based on the 1962–1966 black and white television sitcom McHale's Navy starring a slimmed down Ernest Borgnine, Tim Conway and Joe Flynn, which had in turn originated with a one-hour anthology drama starring Borgnine entitled Seven Against the Sea. The movie version was directed by series producer Edward J. Montagne and its supporting cast includes Carl Ballantine, Gavin MacLeod, Jean Willes, Claudine Longet, and George Kennedy. The movie was followed by a sequel entitled McHale's Navy Joins the Air Force which did not feature Borgnine or Carl Ballantine. Another film, also called McHale's Navy, was released in 1997 with a completely different plot and an entirely different cast except for Borgnine playing a 35-year-older McHale.

In nearly every way the 1964 movie is merely an extension of the TV series and allows fans of the TV series to see the show in vibrant color. Even the film location for New Caledonia is identical to the one used in the series. For more information on the main characters see the TV series McHale's Navy. The movie was released on DVD for Region 1 on January 31, 2011.

The film was released following the end of the second season of the television series.

McHale's Navy Joins the Air Force is a 1965 movie based upon the television 1962–66 sitcom McHale's Navy. Series supporting players Joe Flynn and Tim Conway are the leads for this sequel to the first movie made in 1964 also named McHale's Navy. Most of the movie is based on their two characters particularly Ensign Parker. Series star Ernest Borgnine was unavailable due to a scheduling conflict while he appeared in the 1965 movie The Flight of the Phoenix. However, in a Cinema Retro interview, Borgnine said the producer Edward Montagne wanted to make the film cheaply, without him and would not show him the script.  Carl Ballantine also doesn't appear in the movie and the PT-73 crew is not seen in large portions of the film. The movie, which also features Ted Bessell and Gavin MacLeod, was directed by series producer Edward Montagne.

Except for Quinton McHale (Ernest Borgnine) and Lester Gruber (Carl Ballantine) the movie features all the main characters from the TV series. Binghamton (Joe Flynn) is sent to a staff meeting in Brisbane, Australia and is forced to use the PT-73 to get there after Fuji (Yoshio Yoda) sabotages Lt. Carpenter's PT-116 (Bob Hastings). While in Brisbane, Binghamton orders the PT-73 crew to remain on board, but they switch uniforms with Russian crewmen on the adjoining docked ship so they can leave the ship without being noticed. In a mix up Parker (Tim Conway) switches uniforms with Lt. Harkness (Ted Bessell) who then is mistakenly arrested by the Russian NKGB and put on the Russian ship, but he later escapes and spends the entire movie trying to get back. Parker impersonates Lt. Harkness with Binghamton helping him until Harkness comes back. Because of Harkness's reputation as a lady killer women are drawn to the very shy Parker. Parker also has to avoid General Harkness (Tom Tully) who is Lt Harkness's father for fear of being found out. In the meantime Harkness (or rather Parker) is promoted three times to Lt. Colonel by unwittingly scoring three military victories. Even after being found out, Parker is by then too big a hero and the military brass decide to sort of cover up the whole mix-up of Parker pretending to be someone else. At the end of the film Parker does an impressive impersonation of then President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Eventually, Ensign Parker would have made it into the Hall as the Monthly Showcase for April, but a great talent like Tim Conway should not have to wait to be acknowledged.  I apologize for taking this long.

Good night and may God bless, Chuck Parker….

MONDAY MEMORIAL TVXOHOF TRIBUTE - NORMA JENNINGS

From Variety:
Peggy Lipton, actress and singer known for her roles in “The Mod Squad” and “Twin Peaks,” and the mother of Rashida Jones, has died at 72 of cancer.

Her daughters Rashida and Kidada Jones announced her death to the Los Angeles Times. She had previously been diagnosed with colon cancer in 2004.

Lipton won a Golden Globe and was Emmy-nominated four times for her role as flower child Julie Barnes in “The Mod Squad,” in which she starred from 1968 to 1973. She became a fashion icon for her hippie outfits on the show, which featured three hip undercover cops, “One black, one white, one blonde,” as the marketing campaign described. Clarence Williams III and Michael Cole were her fellow bell bottom-wearing undercover officers in one of the first shows to feature a multiracial cast and one of the first to depict the growing counter-culture movement.

After a long break to raise her daughters, she returned to acting on David Lynch’s original “Twin Peaks” series, on which she played Norma Jennings, the owner of the Double R Diner. She reprised her role in the recent revival of the series.  

Kyle MacLachlan wrote a very moving tribute to his former co-star which made me, for one, envious that I never got the chance to meet her.

Peggy Lipton’s performance as Julie Barnes on The Mod Squad made a huge impact on my whole generation. The show was decidedly not meant for our parents, and Peggy, who died on May 11 at 72, was a revelation. She represented a type of person not seen on television before, the quintessential example of a new kind of woman, young and hip, with a resilience that complemented a truly gentle spirit. 

 Later, she played a more personal, yet equally influential, role in my life, when we worked together on Twin Peaks. Peggy brought mystery and strength in equal measure to the character of Norma, who ran the Double R Diner. She radiated a sense of purpose, and her performance on the show in many ways mirrored Peggy the unique individual. She was always gracious and ever thoughtful, and moved to her own rhythm. She was wise and seemed all-knowing, and I instinctively felt that her world was full and complete—and far more fascinating than she would ever reveal to the rest of us.

When she poured you a coffee at the counter at the Double R, her smile and calming voice made everything feel all right with the world. And she made one hell of a cherry pie.
- Kyle MacLachlan

About the only way Toobworld Central can honor the memory of favorite actors is to take one of their characters – or perhaps the actual person – and finding a way to induct them into the Television Crossover Hall of Fame. 

I really wanted to get Julie Barnes in the Hall, eventually Pete and Linc of the Mod Squad as well.  But besides their TV series, they only had a reunion movie and no crossovers. 

However, Norma Jennings fits the bill, thanks to two theatrically released movies which have been absorbed into the Television Universe as part of the same franchise for ‘Twin Peaks’.

‘Twin Peaks’
1989-1991
30 episodes

"Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me"
1992 

"Twin Peaks: The Missing Pieces" 
2014

'Twin Peaks'
2017
5 episodes

Here are the basic facts:

NORMA JENNINGS

BORN
September 30, 1950
RESIDENCE
Twin Peaks, Washington, United States
OCCUPATION
Owner of the Double R Diner
FAMILY
• Marty Lindstrom (father)
• Ilsa Lindstrom (mother)
• Vivian Smythe (step-mother)
• Annie Blackburn (half-sister)
• Hank Jennings (ex-husband)
• Ed Hurley (husband)

Norma Jennings (née Lindstrom) owned the Double R Diner, and was the organizer of Meals on Wheels, formerly with Laura Palmer.

Norma was the high school sweetheart of Ed Hurley, but in 1969 - the spring after graduation - she cheated on him with Hank Jennings one weekend, so he decided to marry Nadine Butler while in a partially inebriated state. Norma quickly married Hank in April, and they honeymooned in Hollywood, where they got tickets to 'The Tonight Show'. Also that month, she began working at the Double R Diner.

She graduated from Twin Peaks Community College, earning a degree in Home Economics.

Also in 1969, Norma won the first annual Miss Twin Peaks Contest.

In August of 1987, Norma began a Meals on Wheels service at the Double R Diner with the help of high school student Laura Palmer. In September of that year, Hank was convicted for vehicular manslaughter, so she and Ed began an affair.

On the morning of February 24, Laura was later found murdered, deeply affecting the town.

Later at the diner, Norma served a cherry pie to FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper, whom she was introduced to by Sheriff Harry S. Truman as having taken over the investigation into Laura's death. Cooper asked her about Laura's involvement with the Meals on Wheels program and then asked her for two more pieces of pie.

Information is collected from the ‘Twin Peaks’ wiki.

Welcome to the Hall, Ms. Jennings.  You’ll find Special Agent Albert Rosenfeld is already a member of the TVXOHOF.  And as Prime-Time marches on, I’m sure I’ll be adding to your little group of members.

VIDEO SUNDAY - REMEMBERING DORIS DAY

Doris Day, who died this past week, was featured in scenes from "Send Me No Flowers" with Rock Hudson.  The movie would premiere a few months after this episode was first aired.  By then it had to have been finished, I'm sure, so it's not likely the Clampetts were really seeing the daily rushes. 

In a way, this episode served as a promotional stunt to advertise the movie which was the third and final film made by Ms. Day, Mr. Hudson, and Tony Randall together.

VIDEO WEEKEND - REMEMBERING DORIS DAY

Yesterday we inducted the late Doris Day into the Television Crossover Hall of Fame.  Today, for our video weekend entry, we're presenting one of the episodes which qualified her. 

In this episode of her eponymous sitcom, a traditional TV trope was invoked in which the main character of the sitcom gets to meet the actor who plays them.

I've included all five of the YouTube segments, but more than likely they follow one after the other.  I'm just a Doubting Thomas. 

And there's an uncredited guest appearance which will put that star on the fast track for his own membership in the Hall.....

BCnU!

FRIDAY HALL OF FAMERS - REMEMBERING DORIS DAY

From the Associated Press:

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Doris Day, the sunny blond actress and singer whose frothy roles in comedies and musicals made her one of Hollywood’s biggest stars in the 1950s and ’60s and a symbol of wholesome American womanhood, has died. She was 97.

In recent years, Day had been an animal rights advocate and her Doris Day Animal Foundation confirmed her death early Monday at her Carmel Valley, California, home. The foundation said she was surrounded by close friends.

“Day had been in excellent physical health for her age, until recently contracting a serious case of pneumonia, resulting in her death,” the foundation said in an emailed statement.

Ms. Day only had the one long-running fictional television role to her credit, that of Doris Martin in her eponymous sitcom which ran for 128 episodes over five seasons.  It may be that one day I may still find Doris Martin eligible for membership due to the changes to the show’s format over the course of the series.  Changes proved to be so drastic that I determined that we were watching three different Doris Martins from three different TV dimensions.

But if I ever do that, it would have to be one of the Birthday Honors inductions, in which the requirements are much looser.

So I looked into the “life” of her televersion – the fictional representation of herself, and preferably as played by herself.  So many appearances as herself on talk shows and various TV specials - and at least one game show - before she went into seclusion.  One of the major appearances in these genres would be her own talk show that combined her love of animals and the friends she made in show business.  I’m sure her fictional televersion did ‘Doris Day’s Best Friends’ as well.

Johnny Carson:
It was murky out there.
Ed McMahon & The Audience:
How murky was it?
Johnny Carson:
It was so murky out there today and gloomy,
that Doris Day kicked a dog.

(Thanks to my brother Bill for finding that.)

One day 'Tonight' will be inducted into the TV Crossover Hall of Fame and at that time it will carry more weight in the tally for members of the League of Themselves like Doris Day (who appeared on 'Tonight' surprisingly only three times back in the mid-1970s.)

Doris Day only appeared twice as herself in a fictional setting in the main Toobworld, and even then only one of them was only her voice.

The Doris Day Show 
Doris Goes to Hollywood (1971)

From the IMDb:
When Doris Martin wins a Doris Day lookalike contest, she and Myrna head to Hollywood to have lunch with the star, but things don't turn out the way they had planned.

O’Bservation - I’ll be sharing that episode tomorrow.

The Governor & J.J. 
- A Day in the Life (1970) 
... Doris Day (voice)

O’Bservation - Two CBS stars lent their voices to phone messages in this episode - Ms. Day and Sebastian Cabot, who played Giles French on ‘Family Affair’.

She also appears as a technicality in other shows, when scenes from her movies are seen within the fictional world of Earth Prime-Time.  So we’re seeing Doris Day as her characters from those movies.

Let’s just take two examples:

SEND ME NO FLOWERS

The Beverly Hillbillies 
Jed Becomes a Movie Mogul (1964)

The Clampetts get to see the rushes and dailies from this movie a month before it was released.

O’Bservation – Hopefully I’ll have this episode skedded for Sunday….

PILLOW TALK

Madam Secretary
Labor of Love (2017)

Daisy is watching this movie when the FBI comes to search her apartment.  (However, this takes place in another TV dimension.)

I’ve written about that scene before, soon after it first showed up on the show.

So those examples count toward her appearances in the fictional settings of TV shows.  Therefore, she has at least four TV shows in which she appeared as herself – we may find more scenes from her other movies.

Doris Day was such a cultural icon that there are plenty of TV shows in which their fictional characters mention her.  Therefore all of those shows accept the existence of TV’s Doris Day in their world.  (We include in this list the references made by fictional characters to her movies.)

Because of the transcript site I frequent, I don’t always know who the speakers are.  So you may see some quotes with no credit to whoever is speaking.

Prime Suspect 3 (1993)
The Keeper Of Souls

?
I tried to contact you; you know I did. 
?
Oh, stop with the Doris Day act.
It´s getting on my nerves.

Laverne & Shirley 
Call Me a Taxi (1977)

In order to make money after getting fired from their jobs, Laverne and Shirley got jobs as “taxi dancers” (ten cents a dance) at Danceland….

Shirley: 
I just thought it was going to be more like James Cagney and Doris Day.
Laverne: 
They’re not coming.

O’Bservation – This is a reference to their movie “Love Me Or Leave Me”.

Mad Men 
Christmas Comes But Once a Year (2010)

Peggy Olsen:
On the shortlist I've got Tallulah, Jessica Tandy, Barbara Stanwyck, and Doris Day, different types. 
?
I don't even understand your list. 
?
What's wrong with Elizabeth Taylor? 
Isn't it about making old ladies look good? 
?
Nothing makes old ladies look good.

Mad Men 
Long Weekend (2007)

“Send Me No Flowers”, starring Doris Day, is one of the movies which Don and Lane are contemplating seeing.

Joan Holliday:
I feel like I’m stuck somewhere between Doris Day in “Pillow Talk” and “Midnight Lace”. 

Happy Days 
Hardware Jungle

O’Bservation – Richie needed six dollars to go to the concert, but didn’t think he could raise that kind of money.

Fonzie: Like Doris Day says, “Que sera, sera.”

Happy Days 
The Deadly Dares (1974)

O’Bservation – As part of their initiation into the Demons Club, Potsie and Richie had to dress as girls and go to the sock hop until somebody danced with them.

Howard Cunningham:
What we’re talking about is why my son is out there walking the street looking like Doris Day!

White Collar 
Ice Breaker (2013)

Neal Caffrey:
There’s plenty of metered parking
down the street.
Why risk another ticket?
Peter Burke:
Doris Day parking.
Neal:
I’m sorry, Doris Day what?
Peter:
A spot, right in front.  
The kind Doris Day miraculously finds
in all her movies.
Neal:
I didn’t know you were a fan.
Peter:
Oh, I love ‘em!

The Beverly Hillbillies 
Jed Becomes a Movie Mogul (1964)

From the IMDb:
Mr. Drysdale buys Mammoth Pictures, a movie studio. Jed, Granny, Elly and Jethro try to "help" the studio, which is losing money, by working at the studio.

The movie scenes the Clampetts watched were for a movie (Send Me No Flowers) which would be released in theaters the month after this was originally broadcast. This show was in effect a coming attraction for the movie. 

When the Clampetts view the Rock Hudson and Doris Day movie, they're surprised to see that there's no piano player in the "theater". Yet, they don't react at all to the film not being silent.  

Car 54, Where Are You? 
Joan Crawford Didn't Say No (1963)

From the IMDb:
When a septuagenarian delicatessen owner reports he will be marrying Joan Crawford, the boys of the 53rd are sent out to bust the phony matrimonial service that promises to pair its clients with Hollywood movie stars.  

O’Bservation – Mrs. Bronson tried to match up Officer Francis Muldoon with one of her “clients” at the Wedding Bells Matrimonial Agency….

Mrs. Bronson:
Now where were we?
Oh yes.  A girl for you…
Doris Day…?  No, too young.
Susan Hayward?  No, a bit too emotional….

Partners in Crime 
N or M?: Part 1 (2015)

From the IMDb:
Tommy is sent on a secret mission to discover the identity of a Soviet spy staying at a seaside guest-house; Tuppence refuses to be left behind. In their regular life, the Beresfords sell wigs.

Tuppence Beresford:
Have you finished the stock list? 
Tommy Beresford:
Yes. I think we need to order more brunettes.
Tuppence: 
Doris Day, Grace Kelly, Diana Dors…. 
Tommy:
Blondes….
We need to order more blondes.

Ray Donovan 
New Birthday (2013)

?
Too fucking bad about Rock Hudson.
?
What? Made some good movies. 
Pillow Talk, fucking great.
But that Doris Day did not do it for me.
Should've been Lena Horne in Doris Day's part.
Or Eartha Kitt.

The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel 
Put That on Your Plate! (2017)

From the IMDb:
With Susie's help, Midge hones her act at the Gaslight. 

Miriam “Midge” Maisel:
What does this look like?
Susie Myerson: 
You got a mirror?
You look kind of wet and out of focus,
Like… like a Doris Day picture.

The Ropers
The Doris Letters

From the IMDb:
Mrs. Roper thinks her husband is having an affair when she finds his hidden stash of love letters, written to a woman named Doris.

Stanley Roper:
I wrote those letters to… Doris Day.
Helen Roper:
Doris… Day?  The movie star?
Stanley Roper:
Yeah.  You know…. “It’s Magic.”  “Pillow Talk.”
They’re just fan letters.

Melissa & Joey 
The Unkindest Cut (2013)

Melissa:
Oh, I feel like I'm in
an old-fashioned romance movie. 
That's why I'm wearing my Doris Day dress.
Joey:
What's Doris Day?
Oh, is that a fake holiday like Arbor Day?

That '80s Show 
Valentine's Day (2002)

R.T.:
Gimme that jacket, Tuesday. 
June Tuesday:
No! 
R.T.:
Gimme the jacket! 
June Tuesday:
Aah! 
Corey Howard:
I saw this in a Doris Day-Rock Hudson movie once 
and I didn't like it then.

WPC 56 
Walk the Line (2015)

Annie:
"The new Doris Day".
That's what they called me at the Butlins talent show. 
Sergeant:
Yes. I'm sure that you were very good.

Petticoat Junction 
Young Love (1966)

Uncle Joe:
Kate, think of the publicity!
A nice young couple getting married -
Here at the Shady Rest.
The press snapping pictures of them!
Him carrying her over the threshold….
Like Doris Day and Rock Hudson!

The Lucy Show
Lucy Goes to a Hollywood Premiere (1966)

Mr. Mooney:
Mrs. Carmichael, isn’t $75 a lot of money
to pay for a second-hand
pink chiffon nightgown?
Lucille Carmichael:
It was worn by Doris Day in ‘Pillow Talk’!
Mr. Mooney:
I wouldn’t pay $75 for a nightie
if it was worn by Jack Lemmon
in “Some Like It Hot!”

Lucille Carmichael:
Mary Jane works at the studio
and she gets free passes.
But I do need money for a new dress
because I don’t have a thing to wear.
Mr. Mooney:
Why don’t you go in Doris Day’s nightgown?

The Dame Edna Treatment
Episode 1.1

Dame Edna Everidge (to Michael Bolton):
Are you doing any more tributes to people? 
That was of Frank Sinatra…. 
Pat Boone would be good. 
Or Doris Day. 
You could do a tribute to Doris Day.

The Dame Edna Treatment
Episode 1.3

Alec Baldwin:
My birthday is next week.
My birthday is April 3rd.
And I share my birthday
with a very strange array of people.
Dame Edna:
Who are they?
Alec:
Marlon Brando, Wayne Newton,
Doris Day, and Eddie Murphy.
Isn’t that the strangest group of people
you ever heard of in your life?
Dame Edna:
No, no.  They’ve all got something in common…
Alec:
What is that?
Dame Edna:
American.

O’Bservation – I consider this series (and her previous shows) to be part of Earth Prime-Time and not Skitlandia.  I saw her on Broadway and my televersion is definitely a main Toobworldling!

The Bob Newhart Show
The Separation Story (1974)

O’Bservation – Carol thought Bob and Emily were splitting up. So when she thought they were getting back together, she got on the phone:

“Jerry? 
Doris and Rock are back together! 
Pass it on!”

Dr. Bob Hartley:
Room Service?
This is Dr. Hartley in Room 544.
I have somebody coming up for dinner.
And I noticed that you forgot the vase
With the single rose in it.
Like in the movie “Pillow Talk”, right.

When the rose is finally delivered, Emily sniffs it.
“Oh, just like “Pillow Talk”!

Emily came to Bob’s hotel room prepared to carry on the “Pillow Talk” scenario a bit further….

And speaking of props, there are a few which verify Doris Day’s existence in Toobworld.

These three deal with “Pillow Talk”:

The Doctor Blake Mysteries
Still Waters (2013)
Title seen on front of theatre

The Doctor Blake Mysteries
Crossing the Line (2014)
A poster is seen 

Sense8
I Am Also A We (2015)

We also know that Doris Day was a multidimensional, as she appeared in s couple of TV dimensions outside Earth Prime-Time.

TOOBWORLD POTUS-BARTLET
The West Wing
Institutional Memory (2006)

From the IMDb:
CJ examines her relationship with Danny….

Danny Concannon:
Look, I'm not trying to turn you into Doris Day. I know if we have a future together, I'd be Mr. C.J. Cregg, that's fine. But you don't even see me in the picture, do you?  

TOOBWORLD POTUS-DALTON
Madam Secretary
Labor of Love (2017)

From the IMDb:
The movie that Daisy is watching when the FBI comes to search her apartment is “Pillow Talk”.

THE TOONIVERSE

The Ruby Yacht Parts 3 & 4

Citizen:
What's the parade for, Featherby? 
Featherby:
Don't know. Must be Labor Day or sumthin'. 
Citizen:
I wish it were Doris Day!

There is one references to Ms. Day for which I have not been able to pinpoint the exact mention.

If you ever get the chance to find out what it is, let me know, there’s a good lad!

Welcome to the TVXOHOF, Ms. Day.
Thank you for the joy you brought into our lives.

Good night and may God bless….
