Needles and Pins is an American sitcom television series by Screen Gems about a women's clothing manufacturer and his employees in New York City that aired from September 21, 1973 to December 28, 1973.

Nathan Davidson is the owner of Lorelei Fashion House, a manufacturer of women's clothing located in New York City's Garment District. His business partner is his brother-in-law, Harry Karp. Wendy Nelson, the daughter of a friend of Nathan's, has just moved to New York City from Nebraska and taken a job with Lorelei as a fashion designer; she must adjust to the hectic pace of life in New York City in general and in the fashion industry in particular. Also working at Lorelei are Sonia Baker, the bookkeeper and secretary; Charlie Miller, the salesman; Max Popkin, the fabric cutter; and Myron Russo, the patternmaker. Julius Singer, Nathan's archenemy, runs another fashion company that is Lorelei's chief competitor.

Deirdre Lenihan was a newcomer to television, and Needles and Pins gave her a prominent role in which to showcase her talents; her appearance during the opening credits is twice as long as that of any other featured character.

Needles and Pins aired on NBC on Friday at 9:00 p.m. Eastern Time throughout its run.

Episode directors were Hy Averback, Peter Baldwin, George Tyne, and Ernest Losso.
