In the initial NBC series, Greenwood played a neophyte reporter on a small newspaper, who aspired to Hollywood stardom. In the regular season, she lived in "the little town of Lake-view," where she took over the raising of the three Barton children {little Robert and teenagers Jack and Barbara} and tried to keep the Barton estate solvent. The estate consisted of a heavily mortgaged house, "a lunchroom near the high school that barely pays for itself, and an unproductive farm." A typical sitcom. Edward Arnold often laughed louder than the audience.
