The Flying Nun
Created by Marie Teresa Ríos, Bernard Slade, Harry Ackerman
On ABC
A joyful, whimsical 1960s sitcom about a flying nun whose benevolent chaos delights her community, built entirely on warmth, playfulness, and the reassurance of a reset every episode.
Young Sister Bertrille uses her ability to become airborne to help others, whether they want it or not. Although her aims are always benevolent, her means are often bemoaned by Mother Superior. The other Sisters must cope with their beloved Sister's aerodynamics and antics as she flies in and out of trouble.
