You missed absolutely nothing. Even as a kid watching this in prime time (Mom liked it) I found the show to be boring as fuck. Ricky did liven it up tho. But why it had ‘adventures’ in the title was just baffling.

The name of the show was carried over from the radio version, which started in the 40s. Typical of sitcoms, Ozzie and Harriet ended up in awkward situations which resolved themselves by the end of the show. Nothing adventurous about the radio program, either. But it was more entertaining than the TV version.
