With King Features' Popeye out of production, Mae Questel (Olive Oyl) began taking on some face acting jobs.
One such gig had her working with Gertrude Berg on her self-titled CBS sitcom (formerly known as Mrs. G. Goes to College) in the episode, "Gentleman Caller". Mae first appears around the 4:45 mark as a friend of one of the oldest college freshmen in history, Sarah Green (Berg).
The series lasted just one season, with co-star Mary Wickes (ex-Dennis The Menace) nominated for an Emmy for best supporting actress. We'll just take a look-see at Mae's IMDB page and see about other guest appearances.
