The Betty Hutton Show (1959–1960)
4/10
Long Forgotten, except for one small moment.
5 October 2006
I cannot even go to a mediocre "5" on this, as my memories of this show are so really small. I was all of four when it was on the air, and I must have decided to watch it, but found it not really memorable except for one little bit that was odd and I can recall. Hutton is helping one of the boys that she is now guardian. He is making a model airplane. She is concentrating on the motor of the airplane, and somehow (in gluing it together) Hutton manages to glue the propeller onto her nose. It is the only thing from this show I ever retained a memory of...hardly seems worthwhile.

Lightyears away from her performances in ANNIE GET YOUR GUN, THE MIRACLE OF MORGAN'S CREEK, and THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH. Betty did better work than this. The only thing I can add is that when Jean Arthur, a better dramatic actress, tried to make a television sit com less than ten years later, she failed too.
