TV: “The Eddie Albert Show”

Apr. 27, 1965 - Eddie Albert will star on a new comedy series about a lawyer and his wife who move from the city to a rural community. The working title is “The Eddie Albert Show,” which CBS has scheduled for 9 to 9:30 p.m. Wednesdays, starting next fall. CBS had tentatively scheduled a shot titled “Country Cousins” in that time slot, although no cast had been announced.
