Mona McCluskey (1965) - Star of the month... Juliet Prowse
'Mona McCluskey' was Juliet Prowse's television series, which she starred in 1965. It co-starred Denny Miller and was produced by the great entertainer George Burns.
'Mona McCluskey' followed the story of Las Vegas entertainer (played by Juliet Prowse), who marries Mike (played by Denny Miller), an Air Force sergeant, and insists they live on the small salary he makes, rather than the thousands of dollars she earns a week.
Unfortunately, I have never had the opportunity to watch an episode of "Mona McCluskey". It is not available on DVD and I cannot find anything online.
As it is such an important part of Juliet Prowse's television career, I felt it was important to still represent the series with this mini-blog.
I did however manage to find a video of this opening title sequence:
