Synopsis by Hal Erickson
In the comedy sketch "Advice to the Loveworn," henpecked George Appleby seeks help from marriage counselor Dr. Joyce Sisters, played by Jayne Mansfield. Virginia Grey once again appears as George's loudmouthed wife Clara. Best bit: when Jayne asks Red where he got his less-than-impressive physique, he explains that he's rented his muscles from Mickey Hargitay (Mansfield's then husband). Musical guests The Lettermen sing "You'll Never Walk Alone" and "The Girl Next Door", while Jayne Mansfield chimes in with "Glory of Love". In the Silent Spot, Red impersonates an artist starving in a garret. This episode aired February 19, 1963.
