The original title for this series was "Please Stand By," but because the Cuban Missile Crisis had happened less than a year earlier, executives thought it might make people fearful of an air raid. As a reference to this, when this show would cut to a commercial, the Control Voice said, "Please stand by." When the series finale, The Probe (1965), was originally aired, a live announcer spoke over the Control Voice's closing statement about returning "next week at this same time." The live announcer stated that The King Family Show would be seen "next week in this time period." The regular Control Voice closing for The Probe (1965) was heard only in re-runs. Gene Roddenberry was a big fan of the series, being a regular visitor to the set. He would use many of the crew, cast, costumes, and props on Star Trek. George

"Granny, why are you making soap in the cement pond? We can buy it at the store!" "Store-bought soap? STORE-BOUGHT SOAP?? How long do you think 64 million dollars will last if we use STORE-BOUGHT SOAP??" George -

The Hulk? George -
I suppose it should have been obvious that cartoons would be as easy to make in a pandemic as without one, but it didn't really occur to me. And, uh, I hope you had a feliz cumpleanos. George

"Did you ever kill anybody?" "Yes, but they were all bad." George

I actually would have gotten it from your penultimate post. Harley Quinn definitely has cussing and violence, but being a cartoon, based on a comic book (which was based on a prior cartoon), one might have expected it to be a kids' show. George

That sounds like Sheldon Cooper. "Young Sheldon" fits some of the clues (title character not played by Jim Parsons), but there was no violence or cursing, and the only main actor well-known before the show was Annie Potts (though minor characters were played by Ed Begley, Wallace Shawn, Craig Nelson, etc.).

Sounds like "Doom Patrol," except that that has no "title character." Based on a comic book, but not a kids' show. Lots of cussing and violence. Stars include Timothy Dalton, Brendan Fraser, Alan Tudyk. Started in 2019. George

"I just learned something very interesting." "'Pinocchio.' You risked our lives based on something you read in a children's book?" "Wait, it's a book? How about that? I got it from a movie." "I will return to you when it's safe. One day, right here, at sunrise, we'll be together again." George

"Meeting an insurance agent the day your policy runs out is coincidence. Getting a letter from the emperor saying he's visiting is plot. Having your apartment eaten by a wrecking ball... is something else entirely. Harold, you don't control your fate". "If its yellow let it mellow, if its brown flush it down... Oops, forgot my own rule". "You're the first - you're the first thing for so long that I've liked. The first person I could stand to be with. My whole life is such a waste. It's just nothing. I'm sorry. I'll take you home now". "Twenty-five seats, given to orphans. Perfect. Now my nightmare is complete". Could be right. Need confirmation from Human. George
