Bing Crosby had an odd relationship with TV, even though he had one of the most popular radio shows of his time. He was the last to bring his 'radio show' to TV (1954) though made many appearances on TV. In 1964, Bing had his own variety show, as well as this ABC-TV sitcom (in black and white).

Bing Crosby was best known as a crooner - and in this one-season failed sitcom (which is why you haven't seen it syndicated), he's Bing Collins giving up his singing career for his family, with 'wife' Beverly Garland (later to appear on the final seasons of "My Three Sons" with Fred MacMurray).

Of course Bing Crosby was famous for the film, "White Christmas", as well as his variety shows and Christmas shows in the 1970s. And of course, his brother, Bob Crosby, had his own successful CBS daytime show.

However, Bing Crosby is most famous for his temper and family dramas and was a regular subject matter during the 1970s in 'rags' like the National Enquirer, etc. - which make the lyrics to this family sitcom ('his' family) even more ironic to the REAL Bing Crosby.

As for this show as per Wikipedia:

The Bing Crosby Show is a 28-episode sitcom television program starring crooner, film star, iconic phenomenon, and businessman Bing Crosby and actress Beverly Garland as a married couple, Bing and Ellie Collins, rearing two teenage daughters during the early 1960s. In the format, Crosby portrayed a former entertainer turned architectural designer with a penchant for singing, and each episode usually contained at least one song. Produced by Crosby's own company, affiliated with Desilu Studios and subsequently CBS Paramount Television, the series aired on ABC from September 14, 1964, to April 19, 1965. Rebroadcasts continued until June 14.

The roles of the daughters Janice and Joyce Collins were played by Carol Faylen and Diane Sherry, respectively. Top Warner Bros. character actor Frank McHugh appeared as Willie Walters, Collins's live-in handyman. Pamela Austin appeared twice on the program, as Clarissa Roberts.

This was one of the few times Crosby portrayed a happily married man, having often portrayed bachelors, widowers, divorcees, or priests. (Note: The Star Maker was one film in which he was happily married. He also portrayed a married man in the films Dixie and Blue Skies but there were problems in the relationships.)

Guest stars included Herbert Anderson, Frankie Avalon, Jack Benny, Jimmy Boyd, Macdonald Carey, Vikki Carr, his son Gary Crosby, Dennis Day, Roger Ewing, Glenda Farrell, Joan Fontaine, Kathy Garver, George Gobel, Kathryn Grant (Crosby's second wife, also known as Kathryn Crosby), Pat Harrington, Jr., Phil Harris, Charles Lane, Nobu McCarthy, Gary Morton, Ken Murray, Lloyd Nolan, Ruth Roman, and James Shigeta.[4]

The Bing Crosby Show, main sponsor was Ford Motor Company's Lincoln-Mercury division, other sponsors included Lever Brothers, Mennen, Pepto-Bismol and Gillette. It was aired at 9:30 pm. Eastern on Mondays. The series faced competition on CBS from the sitcom Many Happy Returns, and on NBC, Crosby faced the second half of the popular The Andy Williams Show, which alternated with a Jonathan Winters variety show, The Jonathan Winters Show.

After this show, Bing was a regular rotating host of ABC-TV's "The Hollywood Palace".
