The Courtship of Eddie's Father is a American television comedy-drama based on the 1963 movie of the same name, based on a book written by Mark Toby, which had gained some respect in theaters. It was directed by James Komack and tells the story of a widower Bill Bixby who was a magazine publisher, and Brandon Cruz as the titular son who believes his father should marry and manipulates situations surrounding the women his father is interested in.

The series debuted on September 17, 1969, and was last broadcast March 1, 1972, on ABC, replacing the Here Come the Brides series. ABC had acquired the rights to do a weekly television comedy-drama, dealing with a young, single father, trying to raise a young son while pursuing a social life.
