One episode is set on the island of Capri, where Sally is on tour with Mrs. Banford and meets a handsome count with the reputation as "the world's greatest lover". In another segment, Sally and Mrs. Banford are in Germany and at the height of the Cold War become suspicious of a man that they fear could be a Soviet spy. In another segment, Sally hires a gigolo as a birthday surprise for Banford in an attempt to make her feel young again. The escort keeps returning, and Sally learns that his real interest is her, not Mrs. Banford. In another segment, Sally tries to encourage Bascomb, Jr., not to go to Tibet to become a monk because he is too shy to tell his girlfriend of his intentions.〔 Another episode employs the theme music adopted the following season by ABC’s sitcom, ''The Donna Reed Show''. In another segment, Sally poses as actress Judy Holliday to endorse a type of bubble bath sold by Banford and Bleacher's. In the series finale, the store employees plan a variety show for an orphanage.〔 ''Sally'' aired at 7:30 p.m. Eastern on Sunday opposite the first season of ABC’s western series, ''Maverick''. CBS aired alternating episodes of ''The Jack Benny Program'' and ''Bachelor Father'' starring John Forsythe in the same time slot.〔Alex McNeil, ''Total Television'', 1997, appendix〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sally (1957 TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
