Synopsis
This pilot movie (complete with laugh track) for the subsequent one season-plus series -- with much of the same cast during the first season and a complete overhaul during the initial weeks of the second -- is the TV remake of the 1959 Cary Grant/Tony Curtis comedy about a World War II submarine painted shocking pink and numbering among its crew five nurses rescued from battle. Interestingly, one of them is played by Jamie Lee Curtis, daughter of Tony (and Janet Leigh), who co-starred in the original.
