Here is a case where Carol Channing tries to carry an "I Love Lucy" style of sitcom. While the jokes are funny, something just does not click here. The episode starts with Channing doing a monologue about here life since coming to New York. For some reason, while it sets up the plot, it just is not funny.
Then we have a sitcom where Channing tries some physical comedy. She does get to work with Richard Deacon who is the top one in support. Deacons wife is played by Jane Dulo who does not add much in this one.
This tries to set Channing as a sort of "That Girl" coming to the big city. With no breaks in 2 weeks she is already broke. Think with this pilot, it just doesn't work well enough. Joe Conley who was grocer Ike Godsey in the Waltons is the only other notable in the support cast.
This was Desi's first pilot, he would do two more and with one, The Mother's In Law he would do better.
