It's a Great Life 1954 - 1956

Frances Bavier stars as Mrs. Amy Morgan, the owner of a boarding house. Harry Harvey portrayed Mr. Russell, a neighbor. Two of her tenants are returning World War II veterans, played by William Bishop and Michael O'Shea in the roles of Steve Connors and Denny Davis, respectively. The former servicemen portray vacuum cleaner salesmen. James Dunn played Amy's brother-in-law, Earl Morgan, something of a deadbeat often pushing "get-rich-quick" schemes to entice Steve and Denny. Dunn's role was loosely comparable to that of Edgar Buchanan as Uncle Joe Carson in CBS's rural comedy, Petticoat Junction, starring Bea Benaderet as Carson's sister, Kate.
