"Room for One More" is a short-lived 1962 ABC situation comedy, principally starring Andrew Duggan and Peggy McCay as the heads of the Rose family. Its humor derives from their decision to augment their existing family with two adopted children. Thus, it and its contemporary, "My Three Sons", "were significant departures from the mom and pop model of the family" that typified American television comedy of its era. Haramoto, Darrell Y. "Nervous Laughter: Television Situation Comedy and Liberal Democratic Ideology". Praeger/Greenwood. 1989. p.66] As with the similar "Brady Bunch" that would debut seven years later, the plots on "Room" tended to feature "easily solvable situations".
