"Furniture Quick-Changes" "ADULTERY IN SITCOM LAND?" Director: John Rich. 1/2-This is an unusual episode for the genre and the time--Joan rearranges furniture and Brad thinks he's losing his mind. That's actually just the McGuffin in this. What it's REALLY about is this: A female psychologist/business associate of Brad puts THE MOVES on him. Seriously! This woman's intentions include much more than dinner and a movie! Jim Backus is terrific here in that he plays it on the line. He manages to be naive without appearing a sap. Kudos to director John Rich for keeping just the right balance here. The shrink arranges for a "therapy" session at a seaside amusement park. Joan follows. She has an AMAZING scene where she replaces the mechanical figure in a fortune-telling machine. Brilliant! Evelyn Brooks (she played Ada Jacks on TV's Peyton Place) does a terrific job as the shrink. So BRAZEN for 1953! Geraldine Carr is Mabel. Season 2, Episode 3, October 28, 1953. Click Like on the Joan Davis facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Joan-Davis/148556851896661
