Buck Poses

A famous artist Amanda Merriwether is hired by Today's World to paint a portrait for a cover.

An OK episode. The best thing about it is the unusual casting of Mabel Albertson as Amanda. She was known mostly for busybody roles as a mother-in-law or grandmother. She played Darrin's mother on Bewitched during this time. Here she plays an abstract artist. Funny scene at the beginning when Doris doesn't know who she is and twists her arm and tries to throw her out of the office. Amanda meets Buck and thinks he is perfect for the pioneer cover for the magazine. Buck at first doesn't want to but later gets into it.
