Norby is an American sitcom television series that aired from January 5 until April 6, 1955 on NBC. This was one of the first regular weekly series broadcast by NBC in its new all-electronic compatible color system, which had been approved by the FCC in 1953. Norby starred veteran film actor David Wayne, and was created by writer David Swift, then best known as the creator of the popular sitcom Mister Peepers. Eastman Kodak was the program's sponsor, and it was filmed in Eastmancolor. The series ended when Kodak pulled its sponsorship due to the high costs of filming Norby in color.
