The Donna Reed Show: Freeing The Housewife One Episode At A Time
Reed Grew Tired of the Show
“The Donna Reed Show” ran until 1966 and was canceled after 275 episodes aired. The show’s star no longer wanted to be a part of the daily grind that took a toll on her personal life. The TV series was still incredibly popular when Donna Reed decided to turn down the opportunity to renew her contract and the show.
