Corinne Calvet, Joan Caulfield, Betty Hutton, Terry-Thomas and Jack Weston all receive 'Special Guest Stars In Alphabetical Order' credits.
One of guest star Betty Hutton's biggest career hits was the movie "The Greatest Show on Earth", in which she also played a circus performer.
A rare episode in which Burke gets the call at work and not while he's at home with the Girl of the Week (there is none this time).
The climactic chase sequence is an homage to the Mack Sennett shorts of the silent era, featuring such classic "obstacles" as two men carrying a ladder and people carrying trays of food.
This was Betty Hutton's penultimate performance before retiring later that year, apart from a one-time comeback 12 years later in an episode of "Baretta."
