"Doris Day was a giant star but never acted like it. We had a lot of fun. There was a lot of breaking up too. She'd make me laugh or I'd make her laugh or John Dehner would make us laugh. It was a joy to do. Effortless joy." - Kaye Ballard from The Doris Day Companion A Beautiful Day by Pierre Patrick and Garry McGee
"The major change of the fifth and final season was that Doris Day became executive producer of her show. Despite her wanting little to do with television four years earlier, now she was ready to do it all. Although she had a hand in many aspects of her series, including set design and costumes, Doris was now in charge of the budget, music, casting, et cetera...and loved it all." - from The Doris Day Companion A Beautiful Day by Pierre Patrick and Garry McGee
