Stage and screen star Shirley Booth cleaned up with two Emmys for the title role of a busybody maid, based on the 'Saturday Evening Post' cartoons by Ted Key. Hazel may have officially been the Baxters' housekeeper, but she ran that house much more adeptly than the often-flummoxed George ran his successful law career. When 'Hazel' moved over to CBS, Booth's character also relocated, going to live with the family of George's brother.
