    I love when shows have location shots; I'm a real city architecture person and love glimpses of streets and buildings in days gone by, even if it's just a quick shot.

      too bad the copyright of one of her 3d shorts Hawaiian Nights she di in 1954 is too expensive to pay.

    This pilot for sure would be accepted in to at least 5 season run in 2024!😊 1960s Pilot was way ahead of its time!

    Interesting casting Mamie as the naive country girl, so against type--she plays it well, and looks fabulous of course.

    John Bryant who played Mr Evans was the first Marlboro Man, and appeared on the back cover of Life magazine in either 1960 or 1961. He did a lot of other ads and commercials, and also recorded books for the blind.

    This is GREAT! Maime was shafted in her on screen career I.M.O.! We should've seen a lot more of her!

    Originally produced in 1956, and telecast on "ALCOA/GOODYEAR THEATER" as "Girls About Town" on April 20, 1959 (later syndicated as part of Screen Gems' "AWARD THEATER" package of the 1958-'60 "ALCOA/GOODYEAR" episodes, and other unsold pilots). On August 30, 1960, the pilot was repeated again on CBS' "THE COMEDY SPOT" {an anthology of "busted" pilots, scheduled as Red Skelton's summer replacement) as "Meet the Girls". In syndication, the title used on the CBS repeat was substituted for the original version.

    Okay, out of six failed pilot shows I've binged through this morning, this is the only one that's deserved a series. The furs are ugly and inhumane by modern standards, but this was an alien time compared to 2023.

    Great quick sight gag: "I need a mink coat like I need a toupee on my foot." And Mamie looks at her foot!

    1960? It looks like 1955.

    This sure smells of how to marry a millionaire with maime playing the Barbra Eden role and then later on 3 girls.
