Format change[edit]

This article describes the series after it was retooled for seasons 2-4. The premise was different in season 1, where Joey Barnes was an LA press agent's assistant, living with his mother and sister.
Recent edits have resolved this issue. Thanks!

Accurate claim?[edit]

The Reception section states that the series began in color on NBC. However, other sources (e.g., IMDb^[1]) indicate that the first season (1961-1962) was in black & white. In fact, this article's summary box agrees, under Broadcast history / Picture format. Perhaps the "began in color" claim refers just to the show's revised format, which began in season 2?
Thank you for removing this questionable claim.

This was funny?[edit]

Just caught an rerun of an episode of this series on cable and didn't hear anything remotely funny - given it was on during the same time frame as the very entertaining Dick Van Dyke show, it is surprising it lasted as long as it did. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.50.90.64 (talk) 20:04, 13 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
