Going My Way is an American comedy-drama series starring dancer and actor Gene Kelly. Based on the 1944 film of the same name starring Bing Crosby, the series aired on ABC with new episodes from October 3, 1962, to September 11, 1963.[1][2] The program was Kelly's first and only attempt at a weekly television series.[3] The series was cancelled after one season of 30 episodes.[citation needed] The program was also broadcast in England, where the trade publication Sponsor reported that it was "a smash in the London market", rated in the top 10 programs there in 1963.[4]
