Will an Emmy Put 'Em in the Catbird Seat?
"My World and Welcome to It": Huh? The one-season-and-out sitcom during the 1969-70 season was based on the drawings of James Thurber and combined live action and animation. After two Emmys, NBC dumped it to pick up "The Red Skelton Show."

More on The Red Skelton Show
Description from Wikipedia:
The Red Skelton Show was a staple of American television for almost two decades, from the early 1950s through the early 1970s. (It was second to Gunsmoke (1955-1975) and third to The Ed Sullivan Show (1948–1971) in the ratings during that time.)
Skelton, who had previously been a radio star, had appeared in several motion pictures as well. Although his television series is largely associated with CBS, where it appeared for over 15 years, it actually began and ended on NBC. During its run, the program received three Emmy Awards, for Skelton as best comedian and the program as best comedy show during its initial season, and an award for comedy writing in 1960.
