4.0 out of 5 stars
more hilarious hijinks with Ann Sothern,
By Byron Kolln (the corner where Broadway meets Hollywood) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (TOP 100 REVIEWER)
This review is from: Private Secretary - Volume 4 (DVD)
PRIVATE SECRETARY (aka "Susie"), which originally ran between 1954-57, starred former M-G-M movie queen Ann Sothern as the meddlesome Susie MacNamara, secretary to New York talent agency manager Peter Sands (Don Porter).The show offered Ann Sothern the chance to revive her flagging screen career, and endeared her to millions of television viewers across the world. On a broader scale, the character of Susie, a strong self-assured careerwoman in New York, was a radical departure from the domestic housewives that had been the norm in sitcoms up until that time. Ann Sothern's brittle, no-nonsense comedy style holds the entire show together; and her chemistry with Don Porter is very strong. This 4th volume from Alpha Video Classics includes the following episodes: "Elusive" - Peter and Susie try to convince the notoriously-shy actress Inga Kovar to come out of retirement. "Her Best Enemy" - Cagey Calhoun (Jesse White) tries his best to sneak a client away from Peter. "The Efficiency Expert" - Peter toys with the idea of merging International Artists with a rival agency. "Two and Two Make Five" - Susie is panicked when the I.R.S. want to perform a tax audit. Guest-starring Mel Blanc. (Single-sided, single-layer disc). |
