    Where to Watch

Newlywed problems beset the Jones family after the wedding of their daughter Bonnie (Shirley Deane). Jed Prouty, Russell Gleason. Mrs. Jones: Spring Byington. Uncle Charlie: Alan Dinehart. Jack: Ken Howell. Betty: Dixie Dunbar. Lucy: June Carlson. Granny: Florence Roberts. Directed by Herbert I. Leeds.

This is the eighth entry in the saga of the Jones family. In this one, Deane and Gleason are newlyweds involved in a get-rich scheme by their uncle, Dinehart. He almost wrecks their marriage, until the investment pays off. By this time in the series, the characters have developed stronger emotional traits which shine through in the performances.
