Premise:
Dobie Gillis was a "typical" American teenager, with three
primary interests in life: Beautiful women, fancy cars,
and money. Unfortunately he was the son of a grocer and
not the most attractive of boys, which put a certain crimp
in his aspirations. Dobie and his beatnik buddy Maynard,
to who work was a dirty word, did their best to get by with
a minimum of effort. Dobie had two real nemeses in life.
The first was intelligent but unattractive Zelda Gilroy,
who was constantly trying to get herself married to Dobie.
The second, through most of the series, was millionaire
Chatsworth Osborne, Jr., a spoiled young man who flaunted
his social status, not to mention his money, to snare the
attractive girls who eluded Dobie.
------------
285 Norwood Street, Central City, was the business location
and residence of the Gillis family. Stories related Dobie's
continual thoughts about the future, his running battle
with his father over the prospect of acquiring work, his
relationship with his "good buddy" Maynard G. Krebs, and
his endless romantic heartaches, most of which center
around Thalia Menniger, a beautiful, greedy, self-centered
young woman who struggles to improve Dobie and find him
the job that will enable him to make "oodles and oodles of
money" though not for her, the last hope her family has,
but for her family, a sixty-year-old father with a kidney
condition, a mother who isn't getting any younger, a
sister who married a loafer, and a brother who is
becoming a public charge.

 [--] "Rock-a-bye-Dobie" (originally scheduled for 15Mar60 - postponed to 05Jul60)
Note: According to a 15Mar60 New York Times article, CBS replaced "Rock-A-Bye Dobie"
with a repeat of "Love Is a Science."
This article, written by Richard F. Shepard, states...
"One of the 'Many Loves of Dobie Gillis' has been considered a little too
suggestive for television and will not be shown tonight over the
Columbia Broadcasting System."
"The filmed episode, originally scheduled for 8:30 P.M. today, will be
replaced by a rerun. The canceled show, according to the network story summary,
told about a baby-sitting enterprise that led the scatterbrained teenage hero's
father to believe that his son had become a father."
"The change came as a result of 'sufficient negative reaction' on the part
of CBS affiliated stations. Recently, the network has taken to showing many
of its taped and filmed shows to affiliates in advance by means of closed-
circuit transmissions."

Chicago Tribune 16Mar1960 "Town Ticker" column written by Herb Lyon ....
"Dwayne Hickman, CBS-TV's Dobie Gillis, in town on a promo tour, was a bit
shocked at the cancellation of the Tuesday show as 'too suggestive for family
audiences.' He thought it was a clever yarn, as did the whole cast."
According to the TV listings in both the Chicago Tribune and the New York Times,
"Rock-A-Bye Dobie" was replaced by a rerun of "Love Is a Science." But it's
possible that "Dobie's Navy Blues" was shown instead.
