John Nesbitt wrote and narrated this episode of his long-running MGM series. The latter was invariable. The former was common, but not invariable.
It's a warm and nostalgic look at the small town where, as Nesbitt tells it, he grew up: a small but growing village where the houses stood behind neatly-painted picket fences, where there was a one-room schoolhouse, young men in boiled suits walked along the unpaved sidewalks, and the girl next door, grown into a young beauty, had to inveigle you into going on a picnic with a well-filled basket. It was a place filled with certainties in G*d anddecency of people.
It's a good thing to wish for, isn't it?
