Blondie Makes Two Kinds of Fun-filled Dough
13 March 2022
Plot- The Bumsteads need extra money after Dagwood loses his job, so now each branches out into new, laugh-strewn territory.

So, Dagwood leaves his former office and fumbles into radio technology, of all things - so please hide your antenna and turn off the sound! And do not, I repeat, do not meet him on the golf course, especially if he's carrying a golf bag. Meanwhile, Blondie looks around the kitchen for more dough-making possibilities.

Anyway, it's a typical B&D ditz fest. Maybe the plot's a little more complicated than usual, the ace supporting players hustling in and out almost at random. Then too, frumpy baker Hugh Herbert gets extra spotlight for doing his goofy dough-mix. Still, he gets a suprise identity climax, that may not be very credible, but who cares since it's the laughs that count.

Good thing Blondie's around to throw an occasional sanity net on hubby and Herbert. After all, her character is half ditzy Dagwood, the fortunate other half being sane and caring housewife. It's this split personality that roots the comedy in a semblance of every-day reality.

Meanwhile, catch up with furry Daisy and her stampeding litter as they hit their marks on cutesy cue - I hope they got extra kibbles and their trainer a big bonus. Anyway, it's a chuckle-filled hour from one of America's all-time fun couples. So catch up with it, if you can.
