The Alan Young Show

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Alan Young Show was a television series which ran from 1950 until 1953. It starred Canadian/English actor Alan Young, later to become better-known for his starring role on Mister Ed, in a variety of comedy skits, a monologue, and songs by guest singers.

In 1953, the tone of the show changed, and, with the same title, the show was converted into a more conventional sitcom, with Young playing a bank teller, and actress Dawn Addams cast as his girlfriend. The show alternated weeks with The Ken Murray Show under the title Time to Smile. In the last two weeks of the season, the format returned to its earlier style, but it was cancelled at the end of the season.
