Because of this episode with Gale Gordon as guest, I have learned of Angel TV series for 1st time. It ran 1960-1961, with some of the I Love Lucy people. Earlier in 1960, there was made the last episode of Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour, just a day ahead of start of Lucy-Desi divorce.

This has to be the most hilarious episode I have ever seen. Too bad it didn't last long.

And the Buckingham was portrayed by a Mercedes 300SL roadster (which, incidentally, had an inline 6 cylinder engine). Paul

Gale Gordon and Carolyn Applebee lady! Why have I never heard about this show?!

I was looking for this series and found it only now. It's supposed to be on tv.com by CBS Interactive but when you click to watch there's a commercial instead so it's fraudulent. Thanks for posting. I remember it fondly but vaguely -- that was over 50 yreas ago!

General Foods [Post, Yuban] and S.C. Johnson {Johnson's Wax} [Glo-Coat] were the show's co-sponsors.

Boy, Gale Gordon had to put up with Wacky females, didn't he?

[@BETTERWORLDSGT]

Yes, Mr. mooney... I love these old shows, I dont know this one was just a little young but I grew up seeing so many in The Late ssixties early Seventies and didnt have Color TV till 1975.

[@shaharazon2449]

was this show made right before the Lucy Show was aired ? This is interesting

29:15- "'I'VE GOT A SECRET' is next, on the CBS Television Network."

Feels a bit Lucy.

Joe Quillan co-wrote many episodes of "OUR MISS BROOKS" (which also featured Gale as "Mr. Conklin").
