Re: RIP Donna

So did I. I've seen that episode God knows how many times and never realized that Donna Douglas was the "ugly" patient. May she RIP.

Re: RIP Donna

RIP Donna Douglas. Always had a crush on her. Just saw her in "Eye of the Beholder" on the Twilight Zone marathon last night. RIP beautiful!

Re: RIP Donna

Condolences to her family and friends. May she rest in peace.

Re: RIP Donna

Farewell to a fine actress who was always a delight to watch.

Re: RIP Donna

She's taking care of all the critter angels now. RIP.

Re: RIP Donna

This is eerie....saw her in the Twilight Zone episode she was in yesterday, & she dies on the same day it aired. And I guess because seeing the marathon of TZ episodes, I thought of how so many people that appeared in them have passed on, a thought flashed through my mind while seeing her episode on t.v. that there would someday be news about her death on the internet & it happens the next day. She was beautiful.

"The greatness of a nation can be judged by the way its animals are treated."
Gandhi
I have thought of that quote many times, but replaced "nation" with "individual."
Donna Douglas loved animals as much as "Elly May" and her "critters."
For that alone, I think of her as a gracious, kind lady.
Rest well with the Lord you love, Miss Douglas.

Re: RIP Donna

That's so beautiful jfd, thank you.

RIP Donna

Re: RIP Donna

What horrible, horrible news. I went to yahoo and saw she was the number one search and I feared the worst. I have loved Donna Douglas all my life. She was my number one favorite tv star when I was a little kid. She was so beautiful and such a charming tv personality. I can hardly believe she has died - I know both of her parents had only passed away in the last ten years or so. She was such a kind person, a lady through and through. Rest in peace, Donna, we will never forget you.

Re: RIP Donna

RIP Donna. You will always be a timeless beauty for us guys who grew up watching you.

The thing is, Bob, it's not that I'm lazy, it's that I just don't care.

Re: RIP Donna

Re: RIP Donna

I watching a dvd of The Beverly Hillbillies in our bedroom when my wife came in to tell me the news. Just 10 minutes ago. Sad news.

Re: RIP Donna

Rest In Peace Beautiful Donna Douglas, another of my favorite actresses from the good old days is gone.

Wishing everyone on the IMDB Boards a Very Happy New Year!🎉

Re: RIP Donna

Very sorry to hear about the death of Donna Douglas. She was a very beautiful lady, and I have always enjoyed her on the Beverly Hillbillies, and her memorable appearances on the Twilight Zone. Rest In Peace.

Re: RIP Donna

Such sad news to start the year.
Donna was absolutely beautiful.
Perfect casting in the Twilight Zone episode, Eye of the beholder.
And of course her memorable whistle in the Beverly Hillbillies.
Rest in peace Elly May Clampett .

Re: RIP Donna

Re: RIP Donna

RIP. When those who knew her acting think of her, it will always be in a positive way and with a smile on their faces.
And.....she was quite a good actress and a beauty.

Re: RIP Donna

I caught this year's SAG memorial tribute and was surprised they forgot to mention Donna. Its unbelievable especially since she was apart of one of the biggest television shows of all time.

Re: RIP Donna

Hollywood today really doesn't care for anyone whose main career was pre-1980 so I'm kind of not surprised she wasn't on the SAG tribute. I think most of these people have never seen a b&w film much less a silent one. If she doesn't make the Emmy reel that would be a total disgrace though given TBH long run and historic importance.

Re: RIP Donna

Happily, The Emmys did honor Donna with one of the most promenient appearances on the memorial reel, the next to last speaking appearance (Leonard Nimoy was the last). Very sad on September 26th, the first anniversary of Donna's birth since her death. Thank you Donna for sharing your beauty and warmth with the world.

Re: RIP Donna

This is belated but heartfelt. I always thought this lady from my home state was a delightful, beautiful actress/singer. R.I.P. Ms. Douglas
