-Bib occurence: low ?
-Rating:  3/10 ?
-Rating: ***
-Comment: Several young men and women in different blue, also colorful bibs in different episodes. And many other clothes and costumes including sailor suits/sailor dresses.

During research for my western blog I found this.

Pic 1 is from a YouTube clip from an unknown episode (titled TV treasures 03-17-2007), looks like the early 70s. Also more men and women in that scene (a man in light green bibs, one in medium brown one in light turquise bibs), more women in yellow and red bibs.) Pic 2 is from the 1968 episode "Salute to the Armed Forces" showing the intro song "How Are Gonna Keep 'Em Down On the Farm?"taken from the welkmusicalfamily blog. Men in blue bibs and straw hats and women in pink bibs sitting. At least 6 men and 6 women.

Probably some more scenes in other episodes. Earlier episodes are b&w.

Quite unusual (especially for it's time) and funny and also some famous songs (some classics, which also appeared in other movies and series like Kidsongs).

I prefer younger actors. But maybe someone could like it, find it funny or else.

Rating 2-3 for now.
