I am not sure I would go that far. The main characters were not Frat Brothers, one of the characters was a Vietnam Veteran. Yes, a Vietnam Veteran years before the war became of great interest to the public (I think the show ended in 1964). I think it was George Maharis who played the part of the Vet.
Each show was a story onto itself and as I said before, each one a bit of a time capsule of the early 60's.
