“Once upon a time, [former headwriter William Bell] put together a variety show using cast members singing and dancing, which is Bill’s [Hayes, Doug] favorite show. I liked the days when Doug and Julie were detectives for awhile. They ran around and did funny, crazy stuff. And of course, I loved the days when we could afford to have more music on the show!”
