IMDb profile

With Six You Get Eggroll (1968) is a family comedy, starring Doris Day and Brian Keith. Other cast members include George Carlin, Jamie Farr, William Christopher, Barbara Hershey, Alice Ghostley and Pat Carroll.

Day plays Abby McClure, a widow who owns a lumberyard and who has three sons. Later, she reconnects with old family friend and widower Jake Iverson (Keith) who has a teenage daughter. They start dating and eventually decide to get married. They're not prepared for the hostile reactions from their children, especially Jake's daughter Stacy, who wants to be the woman of the house, and Abby's oldest son Flip, who hates Jake.

The Grass Roots make a cameo appearance in this film. It was also Doris Day's final acting appearance in a feature film, since her TV show The Doris Day Show premiered one month later in September 1968.
