What Is Your Fav Episode of The Partridge Family ?

-

Some days ago I got an email from a friend who reads my blog from time to time. And she asked me two questions. The first one is the title of today's post. Difficult question, I love  all of them, but of course the best are those with a lot of David, if I can put it this way, and with my fav songs. But all the songs are my fav..It's impossible to name the best,  but I have to try. Maybt Top 3 will do. But a song first from my fav Season 4

1.Whatever Happened To Keith Partridge? (Season 3, 11(60) aired November 24, 1972).

David was nearly in every scene, that time he had something to play, not only 'yes mom, no mom' stuff. Keith was scared, very happy, later unhappy, vulnerable, full of hope, uncertain, disappointed..and I love that scene when he says about suffering, that it must  be a lesson in it somewhere, and that truly magical music scene  when he is singing 'Looking Through The Eyes Of Love"..Wow..But what for they filmed Shirley..?

 2. Keith And Lauriebelle  (Season 4, 19(93) , aired March 2nd, 1974)

Everybody knew that DC was leaving, that season was to be the last, no one cared to change anything, Keith still lived with his mum, and DC's acting was full of bravado, wicked and nosense humor, he also insisted on not cutting his hair.. This episode  was a concert of Susan Dey's and David Cassidy's acting talents. What a shame that no one wrote a series just for them. Can you imagine, 'Susan Loves David' TV series.   Definitely one of my fav episode. And knowing about Susan feelings we can only admire her professionalism and courage

3. I Left My Heart  In Cincinnati ( Season 3 , 17 (66) aired January 26, 1973 )

The famous episode made at King's Island amusement park, a very strong security was needed for David. I smile when I watch this, so uplifting and funny and great acting, David and Danny and also Mary Ann Mobley, this amazing, beautiful lady. Miss America 1959, in the 60s she made 2 films with Elvis Presley, a very known tv personality, died in 2014 of breast cancer.

 I love the rest 93 episodes and I can't help it (and  don't want). I will answer the second question  some other time, it's even more difficult - 'Is there anything you don't like about DC?'...Really..

Today my blog has exceeded 5000 hits. Thank you, I'm happy because that means that people are still interested in David Cassidy. My readers are from the following countries : Great Britain, The U.S., Spain, Japan, Iceland, Germany, Belgium, Holland, France, Greece, Italy, Denmark, Sweden, Ireland, Czech Republic, Russia, Azerbaijan, Indonesia, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Argentina, Brazil, Puerto Rico and Poland.

One more song, from another fav episode..David Cassidy singing Tony Romeo's masterpiece.."Summer Days'

Kay Lenz, an Actress

Don't get me wrong, I'm not writing today's blog just to gossip about DC's private life, it's because I always admired that amazing woman, Kay Ann Lenz. She had birthday yesterday. 3 years younger than David, a few years older than a typical DC's fan.  In the 70s I heard quite a lot about Kay Lenz . She was very popular in Poland, like the rest of the cast of 'Rich Man, Poor Man'. That tv series was shown in my country I think in 1978, and everybody watched it, also a lot was written about the cast. So one day I read that Kay's husband was a former teen idol, David Cassidy. There was also a pic and I thought that it was just wonderful, I thought they were the most beautiful couple in the world. There was something very moving about Kay. I thought she was different than typical American actress. Such beautiful eyes, but her beauty wasn't an ordinary kind, not for everybody so to speak. When I was a teen I couldn't put in words what I thought a

They Said I Changed A Lot..

Let's first listen to something which was not released, why they didn't want David singing that song is a great mystery for me. Listening to his young, sincere, innocent and magical voice is one in a kind moving experience. You can just imagine David sitting next to you, with his guitar...and.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PbghG6czuw&t=6s Amazing. And of course we believe in David Cassidy and love songs. When I became a real DC's fan in 2018, there was something I used to discuss a lot with my English friend B. How David Cassidy kept changing. A completely different person in each decade. Or even more often. It was something difficult to understand for me. The many faces of David. Each album different from the previous one, different style and even his voice.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4gvxt1WgaA B. thought there was nothing unusual about how David was changing, and I simply didn't follow his career from the beginning, I didn't grow with him, I didn&#

'I Just Hated Being In The Show..'

Last week someone posted a screenshot of the article from May 1974, unfortunately without the date or the name of the paper. Written by a popular journalist Roderick Gilchrist, I think it was Daily Express. We can read that this interview took place at London Weekend Television's Building, on the day before the DC's last concert in Manchester.  And David said, "I feel like the door to the cage has just been opened. And, any minute now I'm going to be able to fly right away from my prison. I can't tell you how happy that makes me feel because I'll be free again.." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AG0hjhwKx5s His prison..Of course there have been other teen idols in the history of pop culture, but somehow for those from the 70s it was like someone put a curse on them. Nothing David Cassidy recorded later in life hasn't changed a bit that first opinion some people had of him and his music. My FB friend, Laurie Eby has written, "I researched 'New Y
