My Little Margie

Show Information based on John Dunning's book "On The Air"

Situation comedy (1952-1955).

Though best remembered as an early TV sitcom, My Little Margie had an almost identical run on radio. Margie was a schemer in the best radio tradition: abetted in her plots to teach the boys a lesson by her friend Mrs. Odetts. Margie and her father lived "high atop New York's Fifth Avenue." This was one of the very few radio shows that originated on TV, the video series premiering almost six months earlier.
