77 Sunset Strip: Nine to Five (1963)
Season 5, Episode 22
4/10
Pretty Dull - pilot for a spinoff anthology series?
15 February 2024
Even the music was not 77SS music. The setting was New York and a high rise office building that got a lot of play, the story looked like a one-off that would not continue with the characters of this story and maybe would work out with other characters from the same building. Man with a wife who keeps leaving, partner who wants to get the company involved in something shady. Richard Long and Diane McBain as husband and wife, two actors who in the early 60s were in demand and carried the story, such as it was, even if the wife's actions in the story made no sense at all. Stu Bailey, an old friend visiting from 77SS, was just an in and out referee with very little to do.

Maybe as an anthology with different characters in each story it might have worked, but the stories would have to have been more interesting than this one.
