...lover. Though the show had its little flaws, mostly caused by first-night jitters, it was a production of considerable finish and skill. In a medium that could use more good actors, directors and scripts, Theater promised to be a first-rate drawing card. Already programmed are Jane Wyatt in Kitty Foyle, Elliott Nugent in The Male Animal and Producer-Narrator Montgomery himself in Ride the Pink Horse. Budgeted at an estimated $30,000 for each one-hour performance, the Theater is one of television's highest-priced shows...

Strandlund (who lives at Columbus, Ohio, in a frame house, with an adjoining Lustron guesthouse) proposed his program three years ago, RFC turned it down.

With the love of two good women (Jane Wyatt and Newcomer Nancy Olson), he finally gets the trains running, but not until Canadian Pacific has dallied at every whistle stop on an over-traveled, one-track story line...
...hokum this. In early 1945, Major Wyatt ("Rat-top") Exum, then deputy commander of the 325th Fighter Group based at Lesina Airdrome in Italy, while returning from a fighter sweep over German-infested, mountainous Hungary, brashly landed his P-31D, wheels down, on a handkerchief of flat land bisected by a deep ditch, to rescue an uninjured squadron mate who had crash-landed his ship with an overheated engine...
