Meet Mr. McNutley is an American situation comedy which aired on CBS Television from 1953–1955, with Ray Milland in the role of fastidious Professor Ray McNutley, the head of the English Department at the fictitious Lynnhaven College for girls. Phyllis Avery portrayed McNutley's wife, Peggy. The half-hour series aired on Thursday evenings opposite Groucho Marx's NBC program, You Bet Your Life. The show aired concurrently on radio during its first season. Both versions were sponsored by General Electric, and originally presented under the umbrella title of The General Electric Comedy Theatre.
Ray and Peggy McNulty are both called for jury duty on the case of a husband who is seeking alimony from his wife. Ray disagrees not only with Peggy, but with the whole jury, over the decision.
Professor McNulty discovers that a former actor (Haley) is working as school gardener. He wants to use him in a play, but academic red tape interferes.
