The show was shot live in New York and sponsored by Anacin. When the Stearns had a baby named Christopher, he also became their son on the show. Nydia Westman played Mary Kay’s mother and Howard Fischer played Howie. Real-life spouses Mary Kay Stearns and John Stearns played the married couple that the show centered on. The description on is that it’s about the “adventures and misadventures of the strait-laced bank employee Johnny Sterns and his zany wife Mary Kay.” This show was only on three or four seasons, but it produced 301 episodes so it was on more often than once a week. The very first sitcom I could find evidence for was Mary Kay and Johnny which debuted in 1947.
