TOPPER premiered on this date in 1953
(I loved this show. And many episodes were written by a very young Stephen Sondheim.)

Anne Jeffreys played Marion Kirby, Robert Sterling was George Kirby and the lead character of Topper was played by Leo G. Carroll on CBS-TV. Topper was called the first of the ‘spirit’ shows of the day. Marion and George Kirby had died along with their dog Neil (a St. Bernard) in an avalanche while on a skiing vacation. The three characters returned to their home -- now occupied by Topper. The adventures of the Kirbys, their dog and Topper were quite chaotic and a lot of fun to watch. The story was loosely based on the writings of Thorne Smith. .....(Courtesy of Those Were The Days Click Here)

It looks vaguely familiar. But we're too young to have seen it. But we enjoyed the days of reruns all through the early 70's. I didn't know the differnece between something ne or old.
