To Rome With Love
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
To Rome With Love was a situation comedy aired in the United States by CBS from September 1969 to September 1971.
To Rome With Love was the story of a widowed college professor, Michael Endicott, who decided to leave his native Iowa following the death of his wife and accept a new position as an instructor at the American Overseas School in Rome. The culture shock of his three daughters in reacting to their new environment, and, to an extent, his own, provided the main humor in the series. Family situations provided most of the rest. Early on, much of this came from Endicott's single sister Harriet who had accompanied them to Rome, apparently for the sole purposes of dissuading them from living there and to cajole them into returning to Iowa. Harriet soon departed, but her place was taken shortly afterward by Andy Pruitt, Endicott's father-in-law and the children's grandfather. He came to Rome for a brief visit with them but wound up staying indefinitely.
