This situation comedy was a spoof of television and the
people who work in it. Joyce Whitman was a fortyish movie
actress whose career had been on the decline until she was
offered the starring role in a new television series called
Undercover Woman. Joyce jumped at the chance, only to
discover that the director was her suave, sarcastic ex-husband,
John Elliot. None of the mutual antagonism that had ended
their marriage had ebbed, and the two of them spent much
of their time on the set putting each other down. Others
working on Undercover Woman were Joyce's TV "partner,"
Tracy Garrett, a sexy young actress who was mindlessly
clawing her way to the top, using anybody and anything to
get there; Fletcher Huff, a fidgety actor who played the
police chief or whom Undercover Woman worked; and Hugo
Muncy, her stuntman double. Also wandering around the
set was Doug Porterfield, the network liaison man assigned
to the series by the CBS Television Network. Doug was
forever trying to assert himself as a network "executive,"
but his weak, bumbling personality kept getting in his way,
making it difficult for anyone to take Doug seriously.
