After 40 years of marriage to a boring, straight-laced woman, recent widower Jonah Foot (Harold Gould), discovers the pleasures of New York nightlife, much to the dismay of his straitlaced son and daughter-in-law.
Jonah sells his home in Pitts Valley, New Hampshire, and moves to Manhattan to live with his son, Jim (Ken Gilman), and Jim’s wife, Harriet (Diana Canova).
The five-episodes relate the misadventures that befall the Foots as they attempt to live together in a small apartment.
Marian Mercer co-starred as their landlady Mrs Griffin.
Foot In The Door was based on the British sitcom Tom, Dick and Harriet, and premiered on 28 March 1983.
