10/10
Gale Storm and the cast make this a classic show.

I recently discovered Gale Storm a few years ago. I have tried to collect her "My Little Margie" series and "The Gale Storm Show: Oh! Susanna". I was able to find all 122 My Little Margie episodes and 86 of 122 Oh! Susanna episodes. Gale Storm is so underrated as comedy star. She had 2 hit series back to back. Only Lucille Ball did better. I have to give a slight edge to My Little Margie. That show was total screwball comedy. It went back and forth like 10 times before the show ended. There was a recurring cast of 6 people. With Oh! Susanna there is a core cast of 4 people. This to me is a toned down version of My Little Margie. It's not a screwball. It's more of a regular comedy. The cast is great. Gale Storm and Zasu Pitts were made for each other. They have perfect chemistry. Roy Roberts who plays the Captain has to constantly keep them out of trouble. And James Farfax appeared in the first three seasons, helps out Gale and Zasu when they get in trouble. I hope both series get an official release. AS I write this, only season 1 of My Little Margie has been released by Reel Vault. I did contact them and they told me they would be trying to raise the money to release the rest of the series. I hope it happens. Oh! Susanna has a best of release of 20 episodes released. It's sad that two great shows have not been fully released on DVD or Blu Ray.
