A bit silly

[Rrrobert · 7/10 · 2 April 2020]

Station manager Mel Price (David Ogden Stiers) catches Ted and Georgette's cute guessing game party trick and creates a show around them.

Lou and Murray think the show is silly but it becomes a hit and Mary is thrilled to be a guest on it. However Georgette suddenly decides she doesn't want to continue the show, leaving Mary in an awkward spot.

OK episode but kind of silly.

Ted & Georgette Make a Big Splash

[Hitchcoc · 7/10 · 5 March 2017]

When a performer walks off the set, WJM needs to fill a one hour void on their schedule. This is announced at a party at Mary's apartment. Ted tells the manager that he and Georgette have a little act they can do. It's a silly little mind reading thing, but he is impressed with their personalities, feeling this will be a charming thing for the audience. And soon the show is a success. It's lightweight and fluff. But then there is a fly in the ointment; Georgette doesn't want to do it any more. She drops this on Ted just before they go on the air, with Mary as a guest. Of course, it's quite a small disaster. Mary has to do the show solo with not preparations or script. Mary's bewilderment was one of her major assets on the show.
