Anne Jeffreys, Robert Sterling & especially the talented Leo G Carroll made this series special. The casting has a chemistry that shows up with every episode I have seen. While the series was made in the early 1950's, I first saw some of them on Channel 9 New York City being re-run in the late 1970's. Not that it matters, the humor in this series is as timeless as any.
Topper was actually a movie series prior to this being made. These shows were so good that I was very unhappy after catching some of them that Channel 9 stopped running them. Since I first saw this, I watched the movies. Even though the movies are very good with Cary Grant - this sitcom takes no second seat to the films.
I am hopeful this show does come out on DVD in total plus any extras to be found. I'd like to see all of this one, and I am sure I have only seen a mere handful of them. What I have seen in this series hits the humor mark often.
