Make Room For Daddy!

Here's the February 1, 1955 ABC Network telecast of Make Room For Daddy.  In this episode, Danny's wife Margaret hires a governess to look after their kids.  Starring Danny Thomas as night club entertainer Danny Williams, Jean Hagen (of "Singin' In The Rain" fame) as his wife Margaret, and Sherry Jackson and Rusty Hamer as their offspring.  Complete with original commercials for Pall Mall Cigarettes and Dodge Cars.

And Now, Boys And Girls.....

Let's go back to 1955 for the original opening of an episode of Make Room For Daddy as was sponsored by the American Tobacco Company and televised on ABC. This clip includes a commercial for Pall Mall cigarettes. The series was also sponsored (on an alternating basis) by the Dodge division of Chrysler.




Danny Thomas' sitcom moved to CBS in 1957 and I think it wound up being sponsored by General Foods.
