Amazon.com: Predating The Brady Bunch by almost a decade, Yours, Mine, and Ours is a screwball comedy about the ultimate blended family. When the widow Helen North (Lucille Ball) marries the widower Frank Beardsley (Henry Fonda), the two must find a place to house their 18--count 'em, 18!--kids (she had 8, he had 10). Based on a real-life couple, the film details the nuances of everyday life in a house overrun with children. From getting all the kids ready for school to sending off an older son to war, this well-written film is wholesome entertainment that doesn't condescend. Look for the very young Tracy Nelson as Germaine. --Jenny Brown

Rating: - Yours, Mine & Ours
This is the original Yours, Mine & Ours with Lucille Ball and Henry Fonda. Very enjoyable and wella cted. A Navy widow with 8 kids marries a Navy man with 10 kids. it is odd to see their groceries only add up to like 120 dollars. But i thought by that time she should know about birth control.

Rating: - Ball and Fonda Elevate a Sitcom-Level Domestic Farce Where Pro-Life Family Values Dominate
I remember when this old-fashioned family comedy came out in 1968 because I saw it from the back of my parents' Rambler station wagon at a suburban drive-in. Ironically, it was released about a month before Robert Kennedy was assassinated, a pertinent fact since he was the Kennedy brother with by far the most children - eleven. The wholesome image of Kennedy as a young family man with a large brood is what much of the country responded to at the time, and this movie echoes those sentiments on a broader, sitcom level. It helps when you have two veterans like Lucille Ball and Henry Fonda play the ... Read More
Rating: - Hilarious and one of Lucille Ball's best!
This is one of the best movie's that Lucille Ball made. Based on a true story, it is absolutely hilarious mixed with heart-touching moments. If you like to belly laugh, this will deliver. (BTW, I have not seen the remake of this movie with Dennis Quaid and have absolutely zero desire to do so. In my opinion, it is a crime that they remake movies from superb original productions.) If you have NOT seen the original with Lucille Ball & Henry Fonda, do yourself a favor and rent it. I don't believe you will be disappointed.
This movie is a perfect addition to have in any DVD library ... Read More
