That Girl (TV Series)
1965 · Series · 30 min. · United States
TV Series (1965-1971). 5 Seasons. A beloved and landmark television series — and the first to spotlight a young female character taking charge of her life — “That Girl” premiered in 1965 to both critical acclaim for the show, and instant stardom for actress Marlo Thomas. Also serving as the show’s producer, Thomas set out to create a new and revolutionary role for prime time women, proving that they could be strong and independent -- and happily single. The gamble paid off: Over the course of five funny, adventurous and fashionably fabulous seasons, effervescent wannabe actress Ann Marie (Thomas) progressed from a naïve young girl who dreamt of becoming a star to a smart, confident woman who could stand up to her parents and become engaged to her boyfriend on her own terms, and never — ever — lost her sense of identity.
