The Fabulous Fanny (Working Title: The Comedy of Seymour) is a 1975 sex comedy film that was directed by Lee Frost and produced by Wes Bishop. It starred Alan Spitz, Murphy Cross, Diane Summerfield and Connie Marie. The film's a sequel to The Boob Tube. The run time of the film is 87 minutes^[1].

Plot

A couple goes to an X-rated motel and becomes involved with the zany story they are watching on X-rated TV. It is about the voluptuous cartoon character of Fanny, who dominates the daydreams of young Seymour. It is this sexual obsession with a fictitious character that stands in the way of his siring a child that will enable him to inherit the family fortune.

Seymour thoroughly enjoys his attempts to impregnate as many beautiful women as possible, but each time he is unable to reach that million-dollar climax. Potency does not let him down – it just keeps him from his riches.

Not until Terri, the girl next door, learns about his secret love is it possible for Seymour and the impossible dream to come together.
