Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

Jack Sheldon was a renowned jazz trumpeter who later voiced the 'Schoolhouse Rock!' 'Conjunction Junction' segment. This sitcom was his brief, bizarre detour into leading-man territory.

Cultural

The show premiered two weeks after 'The Fugitive' ended its run—networks were clearly thirsty for man-on-the-run premises, even comedic ones that absolutely nobody remembers.
