Loves Me, Loves Me Not is an American sitcom starring Susan Dey and Kenneth Gilman, which centered on a young couple who had just started dating. It aired on CBS from March 20 to April 27, 1977.[2][3] Cast
SynopsisDick Phillips is an awkward but earnest and hardworking newspaper reporter who has fallen head-over-heels for Jane Benson, a single California schoolteacher. Both are in their early 20s. They begin to date, but are very unsure of the relationship: Jane is not as sure as Dick is of the relationship's romantic potential – in fact, at first she wants nothing to do with him – and is reluctant to reciprocate his affection, and Dick is not sure where he stands with Jane.[1][2][3][4][5] Tom is Dick's boss and best friend. Sue is Tom's wife, and she befriends Jane after Dick and Jane start dating.[1][2][3][4] ProductionLoves Me, Loves Me Not was Susan Dey's first weekly television series after The Partridge Family came to an end in 1974. It was rushed into production after CBS, deciding to produce a show about young adults to tap into the market for such shows that ABC had had so much mid-1970s success with in Happy Days and Laverne and Shirley, made a last-minute decision to buy six episodes for broadcast in the spring of 1977. Susan Harris, who created the show, wrote its episodes very quickly and filming similarly was rushed, wrapping up in January 1977. Dey said during the show's run that the tight schedule reduced the amount of depth that she and Gilman could put into their characters, although she thought that the depth would come if the show succeeded and more episodes were produced.[6] Paul Junger Witt and Tony Thomas produced the show, and Jay Sandrich was among the episode directors.[1][2][3] Six episodes were produced, but CBS cancelled the show after the last of them aired.[2][3][4][5] Broadcast historyLoves Me, Loves Me Not premiered on CBS on Sunday, March 20, 1977, at 10:30 p.m. It then moved to its regular time slot, Wednesdays at 8:30 p.m., on March 23, remaining there until its sixth and final episode was broadcast on April 27, 1977.[1][2][3][4] Episodes
