What happens

He & She is an American sitcom aired on CBS as part of its 1967–68 lineup. He & She is widely considered by broadcast historians to have been ahead of its time. Its sophisticated approach to comedy was viewed as opening doors to the groundbreaking MTM family of sitcoms of the 1970s, beginning with The Mary Tyler Moore Show in 1970. The character of Oscar was openly the pattern for the Ted Baxter character, for which creator Leonard Stern granted permission. The series marked Prentiss' comeback after having a breakdown during What's New Pussycat?. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
