Sitcom adventures of Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas), who leaves hometown Brewster NY to seek fame and fortune as an actress in New York City. Commercials, bit roles on TV and Broadway comprise her professional experience while she waits for her big break. Meanwhile, her personal life involves boyfriend Donald Hollinger (Ted Bessell), a reporter for Newsview Magazine, and her overprotective father (Lew Parker) and loving mother (Rosemary DeCamp).
TWELVE ANGRY MEN was a standard sitcom plot adaptation in the '60s and '70s, and this episode was THAT GIRL's turn. Ann is the sole guilty verdict holdout, in the trial of a man accused of assaulting his wife. Her fellow jurists include a womanizing jerk, a middle-aged hippie, an uptight spinster, and an obtuse & excitable foreman (Joe Besser).
