The People Next Door

The People Next Door

"The People Next Door" was a situation comedy which aired briefly on CBS as part of its Fall 1989 schedule.

"The People Next Door" starred Jeffrey Jones, previously regarded as a character actor, as cartoonist Walter Kellogg, a man whose imagination was so vivid that many of the things which he imagined materialized immediately. His wife Abigail was portrayed by "Saturday Night Live" alumna Mary Gross. They had two children, and Abigail's sister "Sissy", portrayed by Christina Pickles, was also a regular, as was a meddlesome mailman, Thurman Fippa (Leslie Jordan). The character Debbie was played by Jackie Swanson.

"The People Next Door", which was obviously inspired by the success of "The Far Side", was nevertheless a Nielsen ratings disaster and was cancelled after only four episodes had aired.
