Premise[]
The television series follows the lives of the Hibbard couple dealing with neighbors, work, and life in general.[1] In this show, the roles of domestic housewife and working business man are reversed. Judy is the bread winner of the small family.
Stuart Hibbard (Oliver Clark), who works from home and writes for a mail order catalogue ("Herman Gutman Mail Order Catalogs") is married to Judy Hibbard (Beverly Archer) who works as an office manager for forgetful photographer Damon Jerome (Tom Poston).[1] Both Judy and Stuart had a nemesis in their daily lives: self-centered model, Dee Dee Baldwin (Joan Van Ark) was Judy's, and their next door neighbor, Ken Redford (Martin Kove) was Stuart's.
The show was created by Tom Patchett and Jay Tarses for MTM and CBS. The show did not garner critical or commercial success, with cancellation coming after just 13 episodes. At the time, Tarses was quoted in TV Guide as saying he wouldn’t have watched it if he’d been a viewer: “I have better things to do with my time.”[2]
