WITH SIX YOU GET EGGROLL
July 3, 2013  | By David Bianculli

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

 
Doris Day and Brian Keith star in this 1968 big-screen romantic comedy, about a widow and a widower who meet cute and decide to get serious – despite from misgivings, and internal squabbling, from their respective children. This movie is more interesting than amusing, and mostly for its place in pop-culture history. It not only predated by one year the blended-family premise of 1969’s The Brady Bunch, but also provides an early supporting film role for George Carlin, who very quickly would veer away from center-of-the-road fare such as this.
