Car 54, Where Are You?

A Few Facts Courtesy of Wikipedia

Car 54, Where Are You? was an American sitcom that ran on NBC from 1961 to 1963. Episodes had various directors, the most recognized being Al De Caprio. A majority of filming took place on location in the The Bronx, and at Biograph Studios. The series followed the madcap adventures of NYPD officers Gunther Toody (Joe E. Ross) and Francis Muldoon (Fred Gwynne) in the fictional 53rd precinct in The Bronx. Fred Gwynne and Al Lewis would later appear together again in The Munsters (1964-1966). Much of the script was written by Nat Hiken. Joe E. Ross and Beatrice Pons were teamed once more as husband and wife (Ross played the witless Rupert Ritzik in Sergeant Bilko, Pons his wife Emma). Silvia Schnauser (Charlotte Rae) also appeared in Bilko as "The Twitch," and Gwynne made an appearance as a prodigious eater.

What Did You Say?

There is also a mondegreen of the theme lyrics. One line has been misheard as "Khrushchev's nude and I go wild," instead of "Khrushchev's due at Idlewild," referring to the Soviet leader arriving at the major international airport in New York (presumably to attend a meeting at the United Nations).
