Father Knows Best: Betty Goes Steady (1956) (TV) [season 3, episode 13]

Synopsis: Betty begins dating a classmate. Bud's advisor, a slightly older guy, questions her choice and her social behavior in general, which he finds to be conformist. There may be deeper motives for his opposition, as he too appears to be interested in Betty.

Appraisal: I have no memory of other episodes I may have seen in the past, but this one is priceless. Part of its interest is probably due simply because it is a window to another time, but anyhow it is smart enough for a delightful viewing. Too bad the version I watched was dubbed in Portuguese.
