Following the extraordinary life of an ordinary man, Just Plain Bill is a suspenseful serial soap opera. Bill Davidson owns a barbershop and solves both local and international troubles. Though similar to most soap operas, Just Plain Bill is unique in that most of the shows are comparable to other entertainment genres such as mystery and suspense. Thus the show's storylines are more engaging than the classic soap opera standard. In this collection, there are the few remaining shows available today.
