One of over 700 Paramount Productions, filmed between 1929 and 1949, which were sold to MCA/Universal in 1958 for television distribution, and have been owned and controlled by Universal ever since. Its initial television broadcast took place in Omaha Saturday 13 December 1958 on KETV (Channel 7); in Denver it first aired Wednesday 8 July 1959 on KBTV (Channel 9) and in Toledo Sunday 22 November 1959 on WTOL (Channel 11).
The only film with both William Frawley and William Demarest in its cast, each later a regular on the sitcom My Three Sons (1960). On that show, after Frawley played Michael Frances 'Bub' O'Casey, the father-in-law of lead character and widower Steve Douglas (Fred MacMurray) for 165 episodes, his passing in 1966 was met with the casting of Demarest taking over the old family codger role in the person of Uncle Charley O'Casey, Bub's brother, for 215 of the show's remaining episodes. Demarest had, in 1959, also been among the stars appearing in an episode of Westinghouse Desilu Playhouse (1958) titled The Desilu Revue (1959), with the stars of I Love Lucy (1951) including Frawley portraying themselves.
Final film of Anne Harrison.
