Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis was the first of two episodes in which Richard Long guest-starred (in different roles) after leaving the series. Because it was written, produced and directed by people who never worked on any other episode of the show, and as Bailey is barely in it, it has all the earmarks of a back-door pilot intended for a new series for Long and Diane McBain (whose own WB series "Surfside 6" had recently been cancelled).

Written by Mack David and Jerry Livingston

Featured review
Pretty Dull - pilot for a spinoff anthology series?
Even the music was not 77SS music. The setting was New York and a high rise office building that got a lot of play, the story looked like a one-off that would not continue with the characters of this story and maybe would work out with other characters from the same building. Man with a wife who keeps leaving, partner who wants to get the company involved in something shady. Richard Long and Diane McBain as husband and wife, two actors who in the early 60s were in demand and carried the story, such as it was, even if the wife's actions in the story made no sense at all. Stu Bailey, an old friend visiting from 77SS, was just an in and out referee with very little to do.
Maybe as an anthology with different characters in each story it might have worked, but the stories would have to have been more interesting than this one.
