You're certainly already familiar with Impossible Foxx, one of the longest-running television shows in history. If you never actually watched it, at least you've seen depositions made against the President by the three actresses who've played Impossible Foxx over the years.

No one is a bigger fan of Impossible Foxx than Mr. Slothe. It was his suggestion that I post the following episode guide from the show's first season (1971-1972).
