Once again Dagwood ever anxious to please his boss agrees to let Thurston Hall's daughter Ann Savage stay at the Bumsteads. It is fascinating to me how Jonathan Hale and later Jerome Cowan keep taking advantage of him. It reminds me so much of Jack Lemmon in The Apartment. I wonder if Billy Wilder saw a lot of the Blondie series when he wrote The Apartment.
One thing Hall wants is to get her away from Rafael Storm, a ham actor looking to latch on to a rich meal ticket. He's convinced Savage she has talent. And when he finds her anyway at the Bumsteads he's got Penny Singleton convinced there could be a career for her. One of the few times Blondie isn't behaving levelheaded.
The play as it goes on that Savage wrote and stars in is one of the funniest things since Gracie Allen's production in Here Comes Cookie.
One of the funnier Blondie comedies.
