It's a good, funny sitcom indicative of the time period it ran.

"Enjoyable, nostalgic humor. Great guest stars and cast. And I love Joey, Joey, Joey...that son of a gun! 😁..."

💡 Did You Know?

One episode of the series, known only as "#85", is now considered lost. The episode, filmed on November 15, 1963, guest starred comedian and impressionist Vaughn Meader. Meader had skyrocketed to fame impersonating then-President John F. Kennedy. Approximately one week later, President Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas effectively ending Meader's career. According to a report in The New York Times (December 1, 1963), the episode was set to air in February 1964 but NBC decided to "scrap" the episode believing it was disrespectful to the slain president. The same report claimed the tape on which Meader's episode was recorded was "erased".
