Well, after watching this profoundly terrible episode, I'm amazed the "The Jean Arthur Show" lasted for 12 entire shows. Even the legendary Jean Arthur could not save this turkey. The plot, which involves guest star Ray Bolger as the third richest man in the world, is inane to point of farce but, most importantly, it's not at all funny. Even the laugh track sounds unconvinced. The only possible ending this episode could have had to redeem itself was to find Jean Arthur had been dreaming -- that she had conjured up the entire silly fantasy. But that did not happen. So what's left is a sorry mess of a show that is an embarrassment to its stars and an insult to the audience.
