Fun Fact:
On My Three Sons, Robbie’s singing girlfriend was played by Tina Cole – who came back several years (and one network) later as a different character and married the guy.
Small world, isn’t it?
I remember seeing Tina Cole on another probably later B&W M3S episode. In this one she played a steady girlfriend of Robbie’s who agrees to sit w/ a child for an evening to see if they’d be able to raise children together. At some point in the evening, she ends up abandoning Rob to take care of the child alone and disappears for the rest of the episode (and the series), only to show up as Rob’s future wife, Katie, a couple years later.
