Re:      Rule 24f-2 Notice for
         Metropolitan Series Fund, Inc.
         File No. 2-80751
         Registration File No. 811-3618

Gentlemen:

In connection  with the filing of a notice (the "Notice")  under Rule 24f-2 of
the  Investment  Company Act of 1940,  I am  furnishing  the opinion set forth
below.

Fur  such  purpose,  I have  reviewed  the  Certificate  of  Incorporation  of
Metropolitan  Series Fund,  Inc., a Maryland  Corporation  (the  "Fund"),  the
resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Fund and such other documents and
such questions of law as I have deemed necessary or advisable.

On the basis of such review,  it is my opinion that when the 1,546,074  shares
of the Fund's  common  stock  referred  to in the Notice  were sold during the
fiscal year of the Fund ended December 31, 1995, in reliance upon registration
pursuant  to  Rule  24f-2  and in  accordance  with  the  currently  effective
prospectus of the Fund,  such shares were legally  issued,  fully paid and are
non-assessable.


Sincerely,

/s/ Christopher P. Nicholas
Christopher P. Nicholas
Associate General Counsel

February 28, 1996
