The Lucie Arnaz Show is an American sitcom that aired on CBS from April 2 until June 11, 1985. It was based on the British sitcom Agony.
Dr. Jane Lucas is a psychologist who answers questions from the public on her radio show ("The Jane Lucas Show") and in a magazine. Jim Gordon is her boss.[1]
Reception
Although it was billed as a comedy, Arnaz told an interviewer, "It's not a comedy, it's not a drama. It's a story."[2] Critics agreed that the show was not a successful comedy. "The Lucie Arnaz Show lacks both appeal and humor," wrote The Cincinnati Enquirer's Tom Brinkmoeller, who also called it "uninspired".[1] In 1990, Arnaz recalled the show's brief run as "a depressing experience."[3]
