The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis, an American sitcom that aired on CBS from 1959 to 1963, draws inspiration from Max Shulman's 1951 short story collection. This charming series follows the challenges faced by Dobie Gillis, a young man navigating adolescence with his quirky beatnik friend, Maynard G. Krebs. Together, they tackle the ups and downs of high school, military service, and parental expectations while Dobie dreams of wealth and romance. Produced by Martin Manulis Productions and 20th Century Fox Television, Shulman also co-wrote the catchy theme song with Lionel Newman.
