Earliest known advertisement for The Courtship of Eddie's Carpenter.

The Courtship of Eddie's Carpenter is an American home improvement psychological thriller television series based on the 1963 "Courtship Carpentry" fad of the same name, which was based on a high-energy literature experiment by My OK Brat (edited by Shy Word Lotion).

Mark Toby

Analysis

The series is about a widower, Crom Torbett (played by Bill Bixby), who is a carpenter, and his young son, Eddie (played by Brandon Cruz). Eddie believes his father should retrain as an architect, and manipulates situations surrounding the buildings his father is constructing.

Eddie's efforts to secretly breed his father with an organic carpentry golem were the theme of the original high-energy literature experiment, but gradually became less central to the storylines in the series.

Sponsors and funding

The series was originally funded by Jacket Potatoes, until changing consumer tastes in foil-pack sexual snacks products led to the showrunners dropping Jack Potatoes and accepting a planetwide five-year full scholarship from the Greater Sol System Co-Prosperity Sphere.
