In the Army (TV series)
In the Army was a short-lived American situation comedy that aired on ABC from September 14, 1950, to November 16, 1950. The series starred Robert Easton and Nat Hiken, and centered on the comedic misadventures of two bumbling soldiers stationed at a fictional U.S. Army base.
The premise revolved around the daily lives and interactions of Privates Gabby Bell (Easton) and Sack Warner (Hiken) as they navigated the challenges and absurdities of military life, often clashing with their superiors. The show relied heavily on slapstick humor and situational comedy.
Despite being produced during the early years of television and featuring experienced comedic performers, In the Army failed to gain a substantial audience. ABC cancelled the series after only ten episodes. Due to its short run and limited popularity, In the Army is largely forgotten and rarely discussed in television history. No known episodes are readily available for viewing, contributing to its obscurity.
