| Hazel | comment |
Hazel was an American Dom Com which aired for four seasons (1961–65) on NBC and a fifth season (1965–66) on CBS. It was based on the single-panel comic strip of the same name created by Ted Key, which was published in The Saturday Evening Post and later as a syndicated newspaper comic.It centered around a live-in maid named Hazel Burke (Shirley Booth) and the suburban family for whom she worked: lawyer George Baxter (Don DeFore), his interior-decorator wife Dorothy (Whitney Blake), and their son Harold (Bobby Buntrock). At the end of the fourth season NBC canceled Hazel, but it made a Channel Hop to CBS, which retooled the premise by replacing George and Dorothy with George's brother Steve (Ray Fulmer), his wife Barbara (Lynn Borden), and their daughter Susie (Julia Benjamin). Harold was kept as well as Hazel of course. | |

Cousin Oliver | |
| Hazel / int_20314beb | comment |
Cousin Oliver: While this is a bit of an older example, Steve and Barbara, George's brother and sister in law, and their daughter Susie, Harold's cousin. One of the reasons that Steve and Barbara Baxter were brought in was to appeal to younger demographics. They, also, fit in with the trope by being relatives who were never mentioned before. | |

Rich in Dollars, Poor in Sense | |
| Hazel / int_2b2abf36 | comment |
Rich in Dollars, Poor in Sense: Herbert and Harriet Johnson, who have trouble with the simplest cooking tasks, and find themselves nearly broke after Herbert learns that he's invested in such obsolete companies as harnesses and saddles, button hooks, kerosene lanterns, stereopticon slide viewers, and his 485 tons of whalebone are sitting unused in a warehouse because corsets are now made of elastic. | |

Put on a Bus: George and Dorothy after the Channel Hop; the in universe explanation was that George had been assigned by his firm to go to Iraq (!) and Dorothy went with him. Harold stayed so he wouldn't have to be pulled out of school. | |

Adaptational Nice Guy | |
| Hazel / int_82a64c4b | comment |
Adaptational Nice Guy: In the comics, Hazel was kind of a bossy nag who tormented the family she worked for. Booth's Hazel is a well-intentioned busybody at worst and a Cool Old Lady the rest of the time. | |

Dramatic Irony: One Season 2 episode has a Scottish man (played by a younger James Doohan) reunite with his estranged girlfriend in the United States. He goes on to tell the Baxters how much he loves her simple style of dress, her facial flaws, and how hard she works—all while Hazel is fixing her up at the beauty salon so she can look gorgeous for the reunion. | |

Product Placement | |
| Hazel / int_f511ea9b | comment |
Product Placement: The Ford Motor Company was the sponsor, and every character seemed to drive a Ford. Many of the opening credits show the family getting ready to take a trip in a Ford car. In one of the closing credits, a Ford Galaxie was featured speeding along the road. | |
