it starred Bob Cummings as a photogropher living and working in california-I think L.A. He was a bachelor, had "an eye for the ladies", and lived with his sister (who also wasn't married-I think she was divorced) and his nephew (played by Dwane Hickman, who went on to play Dobie Gillis). His secretary was played by Ann B. Davis (Alice on THE BRADY BUNCH). And Nancy Kulp ("Miss Jane" on THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES) would appear sometimes as a bird-watcher named Pam Livingston. It was on both NBC & CBS-I don't know which one was first and was written by Paul Henning, who created THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES & PETTICOAT JUNCTION and wrote and sometimes directed some early TBH episodes. I don't know what night and time(s) it was on.

An episode of it is on the MPI DVD "THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES" & "PETTICOAT JUNCTION" ULTIMATE CHRISTMAS COLLECTION and on "THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES" ULTIMATE COLLECTION VOLUME 1, also from MPI there's a doccumentary called "PAUL HENNING AND THE HILLBILLIES" where they talk a little about it.
