Premise: A psychiatrist raises eyebrows when he opens a practice in his narrow-minded home town at the turn of the century. The series was based on Ronald Reagan's 1942 film (in which he famously asked, `Where's the rest of me?') and aired as part of the `Warner Brothers Presents' lineup, sharing its time slot on a rotating basis with `Cheyenne' and `Casablanca.'
