September 20th, 1961-September 5th, 1964 (NBC)
September 27th, 1964-September 7th, 1965 (CBS)
A 30-minute sitcom not to be confused with Joey Bishop's later effort as an ABC late-night talk show host to compete with Johnny Carson.
In this show's first season, Bishop was seen as Joey Barnes, an unmarried publicist. For the second season, a new format for the show was developed and was retitled "The New Joey Bishop Show." Here, Bishop kept the name Joey Barnes but was a nightclub comedian and talk show host who was now married to Ellie, played by Abby Dalton. Also, starring was Guy Marks as his manager, Freddy, and Corbett Monica who replaced Marks. Joe Besser who was on season 1 of the Abbott and Costello television series and for a brief period one of the Three Stooges, played Bishop's landlord. On September 27th, 1964, the show moved to CBS where it finished its run on September 7th, 1965.
