The television pilot was produced in 1961 by Mirisch Productions (the same producing company behind the original film). The film’s stars, Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis, made cameo appearances for the pilot, reprising their original characters from the film for the opening scene only. The pilot then shifts to new actors for the main characters: Vic Damone and Dick Patterson (playing the “new” Joe and Jerry).
The pilot was not picked up as a series; it remained unsold, but you can view it on YouTube by clicking here.
