Stanley (1956 TV series)

Stanley (1956 TV series)

"Stanley" was an American situation comedy starring Buddy Hackett, Carol Burnett, and the voice of Paul Lynde. It aired on NBC during the 1956–57 television season.

"Stanley" revolved around the adventures of the namesake character (Hackett) as the operator of a newsstand in a posh New York City hotel. Burnett played his girlfriend, Celia, and Lynde voiced the unseen hotel owner, Mr. Fenton, who never appeared on camera but could frequently be heard giving orders to his staff.

As was the case with several such programs (but a declining number, even at this early stage of network television), "Stanley" was aired live.

In the show's introduction, the following line was recited: "You think you've got troubles. Stanley, "he's" got troubles!"
