* MissingEpisode: Averted. But with 380 episodes, two rerun packages were made of the show. The first (and most popular) consists of the 1965-1970 color episodes, spanning the sixth through midway through the 11th seasons. The other package has the first five seasons (1960-1965, all black-and-white) ''and'' the final 1 1/2 seasons (the second half of the 1970-1971 and the full 1971-1972 seasons). To those unfamiliar with the workings of syndication, the shows that aren't part of the package currently shown on cable or their particular local station might conclude the other episodes are either missing or lost.

* MoneyDearBoy: By the time the series was offered to Creator/FredMacMurray, his movie career was slowing down and he took the role primarily for the steady paycheck. He also negotiated a clause into his contract where he'd only be available for the first 65 shooting days of the season, giving him plenty of time off[[note]]to spend with his family on his ranch, pursue the occasional film role, and go golfing[[/note]] while everyone else had to work around his absence.
Added DiffLines:
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: Tim Considine clashed with executive producer Don Fedderson and chafed at being contractually forbidden from motor racing. This led to his departure and Mike being written out of the show.

Yoo, he was the drummer for the band Yellow Balloon, who reached the Top 25 in 1967 with a song entitled "Yellow Balloon" (the flip side of the single was the song played backwards!). Later on, he cut an album for Elektra Records under his real name of Don Aggrati, and later composed the theme music for Phil Donahue's talk show.

* AbsenteeActor: Sort of. Fred [=MacMurray=]'s contract allowed him to shoot ''all'' his scenes for the season in a short time frame, allowing him much more time off than would normally be available to a series star. This meant that an episode was almost never completed all at once, and the other actors regularly found themselves shooting scenes that belonged to episodes for which [=MacMurray=]'s contribution had been done weeks or even months before. The staff had to be very meticulous about things like wardrobe, props, makeup, etc. to preserve continuity, making sure that, for example, haircuts didn't vary much over the course of a season so that scenes shot weeks or months apart would match in the finished product.
