In case you had any doubts that Betty White has the longest successful career in television, there's this very early sitcom, back when she had dark hair. As the title suggests, there are three unrelated situations, connected by a narrator. I was leaning towards a C+, but Moore and White don't really have any chemistry and there are at best smiles rather than laughs to be had. White's Danzaly named protagonist is supposed to be as hapless as Lucy and as spacy as Gracie, but with an impish quality. If the material and her (few) costars were at her level, it might've been a C+ or even B-. I guess see it if you're curious; there are certainly worse '50s programs in this project.
