‘Mr Lucky’ (John Vivyan) was a suave professional gambler who had won a plush floating casino, onboard his yacht Fortuna II, and used it as his base of operations.
Staying outside the three-mile limit, where he could operate a gambling ship legally, Mr Lucky played host to a variety of people who came to make use of his luxurious facility, accompanied by rich Henry Mancini music.
Helping him run the casino was his Latin sidekick Andamo (Ross Martin).
The series, which was loosely based on a 1940s film starring Cary Grant, was cancelled after the sponsors left. CBS was unable to find another sponsor despite the good ratings.
