I saw this as a teenager and even then I was deeply impressed with everything about it, the writing, the casting, the superb performances. I thought that Dick and Paula would certainly become the Lunt and Fontanne of my generation, a gifted married couple who could play comedy brilliantly, and drama, too! But CBS never gave this show the slot it deserved or the promotion it needed. It got rave reviews and had a devoted if small audience, but it was canceled after only one season. I liked it so much I made (audio) recordings of several episodes, just for the writing and to hear the way these two, Benjamin and Prentiss, played off of each other. Sheer brilliance!
