Premise: A sexy female robot is put in the care of an Air Force psychiatrist/bachelor
Why My Living Doll might be annoying
It was the least successful of the mid 60's genre of the hot girl with powers living with a dashing guy (Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie)
Robert Cummings character was named Robert.
Of the 26 episodes only a handful are known to still exist.
Co-stars Robert Cummings and Julie Newmar feuded. It seemed Cummings liked to tell Newmar how to act, to which she objected.
Robert Cummings continued his typecast of the good looking playboy bachelor.
The show was politically incorrect, as Bob's objective was to created the perfect woman 'one who does what she is told and shuts up.'
The series lost focus from a psychiatrist training a robot to have human characteristics to a romantic comedy.
The series was extremely contrived.
Jerry Van Dyke was originally considered for the psychiatrist role.
Although the pilot was entitled 'Boy meets Girl,' the boy (Cummings) was in his late 50's.
Why My Living Doll might not be annoying
Rhoda Miller's catch phrase was 'that does not compute.'
Julie Newmar portrayed the robot as unemotional, a technological wiz and naive rather than the disjointed voice used in 'Small Wonder.'
Julie Newmar went on to originate Catwoman on Batman
It's audience were primarily teenage boys.
It was nominated for a Golden Globe.
