Find Me In ... is a series of five comedy films starring Peter Kane, Danny Rivers, and Dorothy Bell. They are also often referred to as the "Find Me" pictures or the "Find Me" series. The movies were a combination of adventure, comedy, romance, and music. The minimal plot often took a back seat to gags, which appeared improvised but were usually scripted by Kane and Rivers, pulling from their years of on-stage acts and performances.

Running Gags
Reception
Cancelled Movie
The studio attempted to get the trio together for one last entry in the series, this time focusing on the country's fascination with space. The movie would have seen the duo accidentally mistaken for astronauts and sent to the moon. Once there, they'd find it inhabited by "Moonites," an all-female alien species whose leader would be played by Dorothy Bell.
A script was written and presented to the trio; however, Kane and Bell immediately turned it down, saying the series did not need to go to space. Rivers attempted to keep the film going, but a falling out between him and Kane put the final nail in the coffin, and the movie was canned.
