Summaries

Mickey Mackenzie is a young lady who works as a maid for David Tucker and Jay Bostwick, two bachelors who live together in a Manhattan apartment.

This short-lived sitcom actually lived two lives, once on NBC and again in syndication. Two Manhattan bachelors, neat-freak attorney David Tucker and unkempt salesman Jay Bostwick, decide to hire a housemaid. Enter Mickey Mackenzie, a stunningly-beautiful 20something woman. Despite the fact that Mickey (who usually wore T-shirts and jeans when not in various stages of undress) had no previous housekeeping experience, David and Jay hire her on the spot. Jay's girlfriend Beth was a kindergarten teacher, while David's girlfriend was Claudia; she left early in the show's NBC run. When the show returned in syndication in 1987, Beth was also gone although her absence wasn't explained, but David, Jay, and Mickey gained new neighbors, Max Papavasiolios Sr. and his son Max Jr.—Brian Rathjen <[email protected]>

David Tucker is a lawyer who lives with sloppy importer and "idea man" Jay Bostwick. Because of the mess in the apartment, they hire Mickey McKenzie, who appears to be a ditzy blonde, as a housekeeper. Their girlfriends, Claudia and Beth, are naturally suspicious. During the 1987-1988 season, the show was syndicated. Claudia and Beth were gone, replaced by Max Papavasilios, Sr., a policeman, and his awkward teenage son, Max Jr.—J.E.
