Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
The Bob Crane Show is an American sitcom that aired on NBC from March 6 to June 19, 1975. The series starred Bob Crane as Bob Wilcox, a man in his 40s who abruptly quits his job as an insurance company executive to enter medical school. The series co-starred Patricia Harty as his wife Ellie Wilcox, who becomes the family's breadwinner while Bob is in school. The family helped out at home, but at school Bob faced the problem of being so much older than the other students. Characters such as Mr. Busso, the nutty landlord, and the overzealous Dean Ingersoll added to the show's comedy. After initial delays, the series debuted on March 6, 1975. It performed poorly in the Nielsen ratings and was canceled after 14 episodes were broadcast. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
