He & She
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He & She was a situation comedy that aired on the CBS television network as part of its 1967-68 lineup.
He & She starred real-life married couple Richard Benjamin and Paula Prentiss as Dick and Paula Hollister, a successful cartoonist and his wife, a social worker. Hollister's cartoon "Jetman" had in fact been so successful that it was now a network television series starring egomaniacal actor Oscar North (Jack Cassidy) as Jetman. North constantly argued with Hollister over the interpretation and direction of the Jetman character. Folksinger/actor Hamilton Camp played the role of handyman Andrew Hummel at the apartment building where the starring characters lived, and Kenneth Mars played firefighter Harry Zarakartos, who would often drop in on the Hollisters' apartment by a plank connected to the firehouse across the street.
Despite the strong lead-in of Green Acres, He & She was cancelled after one season, although selected episodes were later rerun as a summer replacement series by CBS in 1970.
