Trivia
"Lux Radio Theater" broadcast a 60 minute radio adaptation of the movie on February 25, 1952 with Betty Grable and Dan Dailey reprising their film roles. See more »Goofs
During the Cosmo Cosmetics number, all of the monitors in the television control room are in color. Expensive color sets would never have been used in a real TV control room, and in fact weren't even available in 1950. See more »Soundtracks

Enjoy a night in with these popular movies available to stream now with Prime Video.
Usually I love the Fox musicals...but this one is just boring. The dancing and the songs can't save this one.
And how nice to know that they actually had color TV video cameras and color TV receiver sets in 1950!!! The special effects people couldn't make the spliced-in TV images in B&W I guess???? Bad editing. And don't you just envy Betty Grable's push-down monitor. Wow, wish I had one (not).
And that "baby" that the Morans illegally "adopt" (then they get her back later, still under suspicious circumstances)...and the Morans never had given "baby" a name? Unless I missed it along the boring way. Then old Miss Adoption Agency has a quick change of heart and offers them a boy. Then Betty is pregnant again after all!!!!
All this makes for a very unbelievable story.
