I’d love to trade for this forgotten gem.

GOOD TIME HARRY ran only for 7 episodes in 1980 on NBC.

Ted Bessell (most famous as boyfriend on That Girl) plays a womanizing San Francisco sports writer.

It’s from the pen of Steve Gordon, the wit who wrote the original Arthur with Dudley Moore and Liza Minnelli.

Harry Jenkins was an accomplished sportswriter for a San Francisco newspaper whose weakness for a pretty face and a nice pair of legs often got him into trouble with his boss Jimmy. Sally and Carol were women around the office with whom Harry often flirted, and Stan was Harry's nerdy neighbor who was always pestering Harry for dating advice.
