I’ve already watched the episode Michael Lembeck was in (John Ritter is in the episode too). The Greatest Ear In The Business, episode 21
Someone needs to update John Ritter's IMDb page. It's not listed. It was his first sitcom guest appearance on February 25, 1971.

It's great whenever short lived/single season sitcoms like this pop up on one of the free streaming services. Having said that, I'd much prefer having these on DVD but watching on line for free is the next best alternative.

I was thinking, for real, could we get this added to his credits? I have zero idea how such things work there.

Yes!! ;) I remember watching this first run as a little girl. But I honestly don't remember that much about it being it was on such a short time and never rerun. I was more familiar with the original Make room for Daddy/ Danny Thomas show.
Wow, I probably saw the Michael Lembeck ep.way back than. Not knowing I would end up 50 years later having a big crush on him ! :D

Michael Lembeck was a fairly busy actor in the 1970's. My favorite role of his is probably when he was Clete the news reporter on the Mary Hartman show.
