Story
Women find handsome and carefree Robert S. Beanblossom (Bob Cummings) irresistible. Perhaps that is why such a clueless real estate salesman is a hero in the eyes of secretary Julie Marshall (Julie Bishop). Boss Willis Thackery (John Litel) sees things differently and tries to rein in Beanblossom's bumbling antics. In spite ot his efforts, Mr. Thackery•s small Hollywood firm is the scene of a never-ending parade of uproarious adventures. Loyal side-kíck Julie always tries to fix Beanblossom's unwitting slip-ups, but only seems to make things worse and a whole lot funnier.

The series appears to have entered the public domain, with several episodes viewable on the Internet Archive. Most of these episodes are syndication copies which run about 24 minutes; The original broadcasts had featured a somewhat elaborate opening sequence involving well-dressed people entering a theater, including a sponsor I.D. (as can be seen on the episode The Big Crush), and this elaborate opening sequence was replaced with a very short (for the 1950s) opening sequence for syndicated repeats, resulting in a shorter running time.
