Blondie [second version, 1968] (sitcom)

    (CBS Primetime, 1968 - 1969) 

    [This was the second of two short-lived series which attempted to
     bring the Chic Young cartoon strip to life in the form of a
     filmed television sitcom. This version included in the cast
     Will Hutchins as Dagwood Bumstead, and Patricia Harty as his
     wife "Blondie".]
