Stokes never knew when his haunted teeth would start trying to do a dance number in his mouth, but figured it was worth putting up with it so he didn’t have to pay for dental work.

Hehe yeah and I like your entry.

A few years ago I caught the end of what seemed like a mini marathon of a black and white show. 
It was about a former private eye / detective and his misadventures with his wife (or fiancé maybe girlfriend?).
Can’t pin down enough details to google it, but the few episodes I saw were pretty fun and funny. Unlike the The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show (love that) I haven’t seen it on tv since. 

I imagine that reruns of the show might have aired more often back in the day.

Stokes:  I’ve heard it’s easier to hear with a cup to the door.  Want to try?  I always wear my athletic supporter.
