This is my personal blog / database about Bib overalls in feature films and TV series. It's my first blog. I collect informations, trailer videos, low-res images and personal comments/ratings. This blog was created in 2011. From 2012-2020 on Wordpress.com and now I'm back. Many links are wrong but exist (blog search).

Update: Kayla
Briefly rechecked and uploaded more and better pics. Rear view is interesting but not perfect to me. But very rare for a teen girl wearing bibs in the 1920s.
Also interesting bedroom and one-room schoolhouse scenes. But I think rather few bibs scenes. The movie is a bit boring, but snow scenes are good these days. Also great actors.
Main entry, still rating 7

King of the Ants (2003)
Thriller. Director: Stuart Gordon
–Year: 2003
–Year in film: 2000s ?
–Country: USA
–Who in bibs: Catlin ~10 ?
–Available on DVD: yes
–I own: yes
–Clothing occurence: very low
–Rating: 3/10
–Rating: ***
–Comment: One young girl, probably Carlie Westerman in light blue shortalls, also roller skating, bib at low position. 2 brief scenes at 1h05.
I even own this on a DVD compilation, but haven't bought this for these scenes. Movie is very poor. Not to be confused with another movie of the same name and same year.
Scenes are not that bad, but for the brief scenes rating ~3 only. Also soon on my pigtails blog, rating ~4.
She also starred in Hidden Places, f/m rating 5.

Lockie Leonard – s1e26
Currently running on German's Kika (but season 1 has just finished and season 2 is very poor). At the end of the final episode, Phillip is barefooted sitting on the beach. I previously missed this scene.

Depois de Tudo (2015)
Drama
–Year: 2015
–Year in film: 2010s ?
–Country: Brazil
–Who in bibs: young Ney ~20, Bebel ~17 ?
–Available on DVD: yes ?
–I own: no
–Clothing occurence: medium+ ?
–Rating: 3/10 ?
–Rating: ***
–Comment: Romulo Estrela (pics 1 + 2 on the right) in dark blue bibs, one strap down (on publicity pics in light blue ones) and I think Maria Casadevall (~17 yo but older looking) shirtless in white shortalls.
And yet another suggestion. Thanks very much!
But to me, it's not a teen boy but a man. Rating ~1-2 for him. At least I found the teen girl, who is maybe more of interest, but I prefer long, blue bibs. Rating ~3-4 for her. Maybe fewer scenes with her. She also starred in "Ilha de Ferro" (2017) in light blue bibs (or shortalls), no entry on IMDb, yet.
In total rating ~3, but I haven't seen the complete movie.

Update: Royal Pains (2009)
One better and larger pic of Jennifer Ferrin in s3e3 of Royal Pains. Sitting scene (adding that tag) and showing the length.
I still don't know all episodes.
Not bad. Currently rating 4, main entry at

Book 77: Borden Deal: The Least One
336 pages written in 1967, also set during the Great Depression (white sharecroppers). I think (partial) autobiographically. The main character (The Least One) has no name ("Boy") and has an older brother. Some parts remind of Deal's short story "Antaeus" which has been made into a CBS movie. "Robbers, Rooftops and Witches" is one of my favourite movies, rating 10, TOP #3.
-Both brothers had to wear clean overalls, jumpers and brogans for the one-room schoolhouse, no winter underwear (p. 54)
-The smell of the "poor" in the school is described (chalk, dirty bodies and clothes, food). p. 58
-Dad in overalls (briefly) p. 95, 116, 117
-pulled by the slack of the overalls, fight boys 12+18 yo, p 190+196
-knife in bib pocktes , p 193
-Dad undressing after bitten by spider, p 210
-boy shucked into overalls and shirt, p 221
-boy putting on clean overalls on Sunday, p 248
-boy cousing wears Dad's bibs, short and tight at crotch, p 257
-night thirsty put on bibs, p 275
-undress in the dark, p 281
-barefooted in the morning, without shirt, p 317
-overall jumper, later pistol in overalls pocket, near end
As announced, there are some good farm and overalls decription near the end and some dramatic plots and some feelings of farm series like The Waltons, but somehow very brief bibs description and mainly of the dad. I expected much more. Also the plot about receiving the name is rather poor. Most parts of the book are boring. I don't like it. In fact only one very good description of the school. It's obvious that they all wore overalls even on Sundays.

–Rating: 3/10 ??
–Rating: ***
–Comment: Murilo Troccoli (wrongly credited as Murilo Trocoli on IMDb) maybe around 14 or 15 yo in faded blue, a bit shorter bibs. Also at least a girl, Danny aka Danielle Lima as Pipoca in yellow and purple bibs (with buttons instead of braces) since 1999 (Disney Club/TV Cruj), sorry no clips with her. Maybe also others (at least guests or audience)? Update: A better pic and also a girl sitting in pink bibs
https://aminoapps.com/c/anos-90-retro/page/blog/voce-lembra-disney-cruj/M2zp_WrIkugmaoXwXLNwrkzzzMPxeJW7km
Another suggestion, thanks very much! Luckily, I found a clip but brief scene and in very poor VHS quality and wearing a face mask.
I can't give a higher rating than ~3 for now (also if in better quality).
I have 2 entries of MMC, maybe there are more of interest in other countries?

Tiere bis unters Dach - ep 33
Nice scenes of 11 yo Jule-Marleen Schuck in light blue shortalls and purple leggins underneath. At the end of today's episode 33 (Der Wunderheiler) also sitting of the ground.
Some episodes earlier (start of season 3 ?) there's younger Pauline in long bibs (but I already have pics of her).
Rebroadcastings on Sundays (rebroadcastings of these Saturdays). Brand new episodes probably after the full rebroadcast, maybe in autumn?
Entry of season 3, rating 4 and main overview entry (f,m,women, rating up to 6)

Update: Sugar Creek Gang #2 – continuity errors
Next to the already mentioned continuity errors in this (and another) episode (mainly Poetry), I found another one, this time Dragonfly.
At 51 minutes (pic 1) his bibs appear much darker (even more on the TV screen) but again it could be the light/camera or they're still wet. It's probably the same pair (or they had 2 identical pairs). But then I've also seen, that he wore a different shirt. Pic 2 is 1 or 2 minutes later, but on the same location/scene. He also wore a white shirt when starting the trip. He got wet, but in both shirts.
I still haven't finished this movie and also have to rewatch the DVD extras (taken by another camera).
Big Bob's bibs also appear much darker, but they are indeed wet. Next to Dragonfly, also Big Bob's underwear can be partly seen at the side of the bibs.
Many wet scenes and many scenes of the Till brothers (shirtless). But still not my most favourite episode.
Update: I have rechecked the DVD incl extras and I think Dragonfly (and maybe Big Bob) always wore the same pair each. Even when wet they appear rather light blue on photographs (like on the covers). I still have to recheck the DVD extras of the other movies.

One of the Smiths

–Available on DVD: yes
–I own: no
–Clothing occurence: very low
–Rating: 3/10
–Rating: ***
–Comment: 8 or 9 yo but younger looking Buddy McDonald in dark blue bibs (buttons instead of braces and overlapping straps and a straw hat).
He appeared in some few Our Gang movies but probably never in bibs except in here.
Since January 2018 there's a DVD compilation containing this short film (28 minutes) called "Charley Chase: At Hal Roach The Talkies Volume One 1930-1931", digitally remastered (VCI Ent.) and including commentary. Not sure if it's worth buying (for non Charley Chase fans) and I don't know the amount of overalls scenes. But I like this boy. Obviously not available colorized and maybe still copyrighted/renewed?
Update: April 2019.
Update: I've seen the film. Previously rating 6-7 now 2-3. 2 very brief scenes.

Update 2: The Brothers Garcia
Long time ago, I've uploaded this larger and better pic of this girl, I think Vaneza Pitynski from s1e1.
I'm still revisiting my old entries and already have updated several entries but haven't announced them all. I used to post "huge updates" but I'm currently quite busy and don't have enough new stuff.

–Available on DVD: yes

–Comment: Zequinha aka Zeca, played by Luiz Henrique Prudêncio, Henry Gaspar and Murillo Martins (not sure who is pictured, at least Henry Gaspar in pic 1 on the left, pic 3 showing all 3) in colorful shorter bibs, bib at very low position.
The boys are a bit older than the boy in the TV series. I don't know this musical, but might be even better. There are also other (non-professional) musicals or stage plays, I've seen a clip with a chubby, dark blonde boy, but I haven't checked much.
Rating 3-4 for now, maybe some even much higher.

Updates: Happy Ever Afters, Dallas
2 larger and better pics of Sinead Maguire. But this is rather a raw denim, tight jeans dress or longer skirtalls. Appearing black inside. And nice scene of sitting on a tree. Still rating 3.
Now also on my pigtails blog, rating 4.
I also have uploaded a better pic of 10 yo Kellie Martin in white bibs in s9e27 of Dallas, rating 3.

–Rating: ***
–Comment: 8 or 9 yo (in season 1) Freddy Allan in colorful, longer shortalls in all episodes. Also at least one man in longer orange bibs, dressed like a boy.
Thanks very much for another suggestion!
I haven't checked all episodes, but the boy always looks the same (also in later seasons). I've seen pics with an older looking boy (bib at much lower position) which are from a (2017 ?) musical, so probably a different actor. That is maybe even more of interest. More infos and pics later.
Pics 1+3 from ep 45 also on all fours, pic 2 from ep 23, the man in ep 64.
I might miss some good scenes (or even other actors) but I can't give any higher rating than ~3. I prefer long, blue bibs and the boy is quite young. And it's a series for toddlers.
There's also a 1999 movie but with other actors. I haven't checked that one.

Update: The Pet (2006)

I found a clip on YouTube called "Dave's World Out Takes" showing Andrew Ducote in bibs, unfortunately a short scene and headshot only. Previously I haven't any pics showing him in bibs but another headshot and a woman in yellow colorful bibs.
Main entry, rating 3 (also soon on my bedroom blog)

–Comment: At least a girl, a teen girl and a woman in bibs/shortalls.
By coincidence I've seen a trailer of season 6 (pic 3) which is currently being rebroadcasted on Tuesdays on DasErste. Pics 2+3 are from ep 81 (s6e16). Pic 1 showing a teen girl (Florence Rinklin as Merle?) in dark blue, short shortalls in ep 86 (s7e5), maybe cycling. Unpictured 43 yo Catherine Bode in medium blue bibs in ep 89 (s7e8). I have briefly checked this episode but haven't found her. One pic on wunschliste.de
I don't know all episodes. Maybe some more actresses/actors? Rating 3-4 for now. I assume few (good) scenes. Also handsome boys starring but probably none in bibs?

Update 2: Mein Onkel Theodor oder Wie man viel Geld im Schlaf verdient
As announced, some more pics of this one, showing the lenght of the bibs (also being cuffed up) and being wet and shirtless in bibs and proving the hickory stripes at close-up. The longhaired kid is obviously a boy (as there are 6 brothers) and he's quite small as well (3rd youngest). Also hands in the pockets while walking.
Very few scenes of the youngest boy and I haven't noticed the girl this time.
Main entry, rating 5, maybe rather 4

Double Dare (2018)

–Country: USA
–Who in bibs: Liza ~20s ?
–Available on DVD: no ?
–I own: no
–Bib occurence: low ??
–Rating: 3/10 ?
–Rating: ***
–Comment: At least this young lady, probably Liza Koshy in short, black shortalls with white dots. I found this by coincidence on YouTube searching for my shiny shorts blog. I think also coveralls and maybe wet scenes? Clip/episode called "Dominating Duo vs. Blast From the Past" on YouTube: OG Contestants RETURN w/ Their Own Kids 20+ Years Later | All New Double Dare Week 3 Nick.
I don't know the new episodes (I think still running) and only very few old ones. There were also other series like this (in other countries).
I prefer blue, long bibs. So rating 2-3 for now only. Show itself maybe much higher. But probably the 80s and 90s were better.
Also soon on my shiny shorts blog.
The Homecoming: A Christmas Story (stage play and musical)
Searching for books of the movies on my one-room schoolhouse list, I searched again for The Waltons (Earl Hamner's Spencer's Mountain, I only have the abridged Reader's Digest version). Then I found a script of the musical by Evelyn Svensson (The Dramatic Publishing Company) on Google Books showing a b&w photo on front. Performed by the Steeple Players, Hendersonville, TN (unpictured). There are some more pics also with a younger boy on dramaticpublishing.com.
There's the original 1998 stage play by Christopher Sergel performed in 2015 by the Theatre Guild of Rockingham County (TGRC), pictured on where the musical is based on. There's a short slideshow on YouTube showing a blonde teen girl and a teen boy, both also sitting.
There are also other plays and musicals (pics on c-ville.com, and a 2005 play on svptheatre.org which also has a pic of younger boys sitting on the floor). Probably much more plays, but I haven't found better ones by a brief research.

–Who in bibs: Elke 51
–Available on DVD: no ?

–Bib occurence: low+ ??
–Rating: 2/10 ?
–Rating: **
–Comment: At least 51 yo Elke Fussbroich in dark blue bibs or shortalls and she (or another lady) in faded shortalls. Pics from episode 1 of current season 3.
I don't watch this series and I don't like her. Also too old.
So rating ~2 only. But I don't know all episodes. I assume very few (good) scenes. Maybe sitting and maybe wet scenes? Or other scenes of interest (dressing on, undressing ?)
Typical series of it's kind with celebrity couples. Some scenes might be funny. But no need for watching this.
Thomas & Senior

–Rating: 5/10 ?
–Rating: *****
–Comment: Karin van Ee in light blue bibs with a red belt. Pics 1-2 from episode 8/9. Also in ep 5. I think few scenes but I don't know the complete series. Main character is the boy. Maybe riding scenes but unknown if in bibs. Also young girl Elvira Molenaar in beige bibs (pic 3 from episode 1). And at least in the movie ~13 yo Nathalie van der Wal in beige bibs (unpictured). I haven't found her, yet, one pic on a fansite.
I found this by coincidence. How could I miss this? Great, typical series by Karst van der Meulen ("De zevensprong" girls rating 4, "De bende van hiernaast" (f/m, rating 6), Knokken voor twee (boys, girl, rating 8), Mijn idee (girl, teen girl, rating 6).
Aka "Thomas & Senior en de grote goudroof" and Thomas en Senior. There's also a 1985 movie called "Thomas en Senior op het spoor van Brute Berend" (also shown as series in 4 episodes) where Karin van Ee and others also starred. English movie title: Thomas & Senior: On the Trail of Brutal Bernard.
For the (few ?) bibs scenes rating 5 for now only. Needs to be rechecked (also for other actors, sitting scenes...). The movie might be (partly) the same, at least should has a different beginning (for what I understood). Both are available on VHS and DVD. 2 different DVD sets.
2 new pics from ep 7, adding tag bicycle and citting F.

Update: Mein Onkel Theodor oder Wie man viel Geld im Schlaf verdient
I finally found a stream of this one. Previously no pics at all. I have briefly checked this. David Bennent in hickory striped bibs. The other kid, I think is a boy, both quite often shown, but only in the first half. Hands in pockets, also legs cuffed up much and wet scenes. Adding tags wet and shortalls. I haven't found the girl. Also a man in bibs.
Quite good for the 70s, but in fact only one boy of interest and rather few good scenes.
So rating 5 was correct. Maybe more pics later.

Update: Eyjafjallajökull
Briefly rechecked and so I made this, better pic. I haven't found any other scenes than this (also not descending the truck). Maybe a bit more from a distance, but this is the only notable scene which is very short.
Not bad and shirtless, so still rating 5. Although I prefer dark bibs.

Update: Pierino colpisce ancora
I have rechecked this movie and hope to find a better image quality, but probably there isn't any better due to the age of this 1982 movie. So the corduroy fabric is hardly to see. Maybe on a DVD on a big screen. 3 more pics to also show the full length. Nice grey bibs, bib at high position, appears even higher with the scarf. But flared legs and backside simple suspenders till the butt. Boy has longer 70s-like hair and often a cap. Bibs are surprisingly not baggy. It seems that he would wear a belt, but I think he didn't.
Rather few scenes and mainly in the first half only. Also sitting at school (incl. sitting down) but only this side view and headshots. Near the end, the man Pierino in bibs as well, I think blue bibs and one strap down but brief scene and not of interest.
I prefer the 1981 Pierino contro tutti which I own on DVD.

Update: Little Boy (2015)
And another movie completely checked. Jakob Salvati wore many different pairs, black cotton, light brown corduroy, light blue and dark blue jeans bibs and also coveralls. And some other boys in jeans bibs, one in light blue hickory striped.
Pic 1 showing him in light blue bibs with overlapping straps, also walking rear view. Red shirt. Scene at 57 minutes. Also same clothes at 33 but with a cap.
Pic 2 is at 1h31 in dark blue bibs and cap but with a jacket. Pic 3 in corduroy bibs and boots, also sitting on the bed (somewhere between 15 and 33).
Pic 4 below showing a boy in light blue bibs at 13 minutes. Another boy briefly in dark blue bibs, headshot only inside. Pic 5 showing an older teen boy in medium blue bibs. Soon after that a boy in light blue hickory striped bibs is shown, also close-up, partial. Main character in corduroy bibs lying on the grass, also close-up, rear/side view.
Medium blue coveralls (jeans, legs cuffed up) at 35 minutes.
So many scenes. Unfortunately is the main character very young and rather few and brief scenes of others.
