[QUOTE="ClassyCo, post: 286401, member: 7"] [JUSTIFY]Mary Jane Croft was content at being on the sidelines in Lucy's shows, and I'm sure that made Lucy very comfortable having her around. Mary Jane wasn't there pouting or wishing she had opening credits billing or more screen time. She was happy with what she got. The only episode of any of Lucy's shows to center on Mary Jane was "Mary Jane's Boyfriend", which just happened to be one of the very last HERE'S LUCY episodes to air in 1974. (An interesting tidbit about the "Mary Jane's Boyfriend" episode. The man that plays Jack, Mary Jane's beau, was John Gabriel. He was the original choice to play the Professor on GILLIGAN'S ISLAND before being shafted for Russell Johnson.)
