I always knew about it coz its the show that made Sally Field
(forrest Gump's mother) famous.
But i was reading the storyline and it sounds VERY NICE!!!!
"The Flying Nun was a one of the many fantasy sitcoms on the 1960s
(think Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie). It was about Elsie
Enthrington, a surfer girl, who became a nun. Now named Sister
Bertrille, the young novice discovered that she had the ability to
fly. She only weighed 90 pounds and when the wind was right she
could put on her cornette and fly. In 1967, she arrived at the
Convent San Tanco in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The Reverand Mother who
ran the place was a strict conservative who usually had to put up
with Bertrille's mishaps. Sister Jaqueline, a wise nun with a sense
of humor became Sister Bertrille's friend (Sister Jaqueline also
narrated the show). The sister was also friends with Sister Sixto,
a Puerto Rican nun who was struggling with her English language,
and Sister Ana, another younger nun. She had a special relationship
with Carlos Ramirez, a playboy who owned the Carlos-A-Go Go
discoteque. Carlos was usually disturbed by Sister Bertrille right
in the middle of hot dates, and because of this he dreaded her
visits. Deep down, though, Carlos was a great friend to the
airborne novice. For three years, The Flying Nun was a favorite
among kids and adults, and was praised by actual Catholic nuns for
its portrayel of convent life. "
