Reply to comment by OhLookASquirrel in TIL The Dick Van Dyke Show was originally written entirely by Carl Reiner, about stories from Reiner's life, and starred Carl Reiner. The pilot was unsuccessful so it was reworked with Dick Van Dyke playing Robert Petrie. by jamescookenotthatone

The Dick Van Dyke Show was bankrolled by it then network, NBC, but Sheldon Leonard, it's main producer used Danny Thomas' production company as its production service company.
