My World and Welcome to It

1969 - 1970
Comedy, Sitcom
TV Series
John Monroe observes and comments on life, to the bemusement of his sensible wife Ellen (Joan Hotchkis) and intelligent, questioning daughter Lydia (Lisa Gerritsen). Monroe's frequent daydreams and fantasies are usually based on material from New Yorker cartoonist James Thurber. Despite many positive reviews, moderate Nielsen ratings led NBC to cancel the series after one season. It then won the Emmy Award for Outstanding Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Comedy Series. (imdb)

A literate television series (or what passed for "literate" at the time)--no wonder it didn't last past the first season. I remember watching this as a kid--already a Thurber fan at age 9--and loving it. It left me with a lifelong soft spot for William Windom, and I remember being fascinated by Lisa Gerritsen's night brace. I should have been more circumspect--3 years later, I had one of my own.
