Time for an Uncle Charley story, right? And it's both sentimental and fun to be sure.
Charley is all alone on a Saturday night, brushing up on his beloved cello, and Barbara suggests he go out and perform. Why not? Steve gets into the mix and before you know it, O'Casey's String Quartet is born and the group is a success... Kinda', Sorta'?
You know everything doesn't work that smoothly. There are some minor complications, but it makes for a lot of fun. The supporting actors here put it over the top. Winnie Collins (as Effie), later to appear on the DORIS DAY SHOW, and veteran actress Virginia Lee (as Monica) are a hoot to watch.
Virginia appeared in six episodes in various roles.
Interestingly, if not historically, the episode was written and composed by famous composer Ramey Idriss, who wrote the "Woody Woodpecker Song." He passed at the age of 59 not too long after this episode, also credited for having composed music for PATTON. Ramey contributed to four episodes.
