Short lived shows during 70-75 (1 Viewer)

[Ian K McLachlan]

I remember that one. Another one I would like to see again.

 

[Corey3rd]

I remember this non-Match Game gameshow with Nipsy Russell being the only panelist that wasn't guesting on Barbary Coast.

Cade's County (Glenn Ford) (1971)

The Snoop Sisters (Helen Hayes & Mildred Natwick) (1973)

Hawkins (Jimmy Stewart) (1973)

The Smith Family (Henry Fonda & Ron Howard) (1971)


I would like all of these.

 

[MCCLOUD]

I too will mention Cade's County the 1971-1972 Glenn Ford TV series which consisted of 24 episodes. This is a good show and it looks like Fox would
release this single season show on DVD. After all, Glenn Ford was a major star and this show would have cross appeal for those who like crime shows and those who like Westerns with its rural/modern day Western setting.
I would also add 4 Jack Webb shows

Ohara Us Treasury 1971-1972 David Janssen
Chase 1973-1974 Mitchell Ryan
Sierra
The DA 1971 Robert Conrad

Also from NBC Mystery Movies

Tenafly 1973-1974 James McEachern
Hec Ramsey 1972-1974 2 Seasons Richard Boone
Madigan 1972-1973 Richard Widmark

Nakia 1974 Robert Forster Arthur Kennedy

Finally, I would add

Kodiak 1974 Clint Walker

Has anyone ever seen this show? I would like to see it and wonder if it is available anywhere. I like Clint Walker.

Thanks for remembering When Things Were Rotten, Longstreet, The Barbary Coast,

Sorry I forgot.

[sestamuch]

Yeah I think I remember that one.

 

[JamesSmith]

Dirty Sally. A western comedy spin-off from Gunsmoke that had Dack Rambo in it.

James Smith

 

[Kevin Hewell]

That's the only one from the list I recognize.

What year did the TV version of Logan's Run air?

 

[beatlejam]

How about another Robert Forster show:

Banyon (1972)

 

[phenri]

Does anyone remember the precursor to Baretta called Toma? It is from 1973 on ABC.

 

[Bob Hug]

Sure do; Tony Musante was the star and I thought he was good in this series, better than Robert Blake in "Baretta." I'd be surprised to see this make it to DVD, though.

 

[phenri]

I agree. I thought Toma was a great show. I remember watching it when I was growing up. I would love to see it again.

No one else I know remembers it, but everyone remembers Baretta.

 

[Statskeeper]

Three more from the early 70s that probably won't ever get released:

The Headmaster (Andy Griffith as a prep school principle)

The New Andy Griffith Show (with Lee Merriweather as his wife; went on mid-season when The Headmaster tanked)

The WOW Show (Ken Berry, after Mayberry RFD, did a short-lived variety show with a young Cheryl Ladd as one of the dancers/singers)

[Mary_P]

Yep, I do. I may even have an episode kicking around someplace. TV Land used to show single episodes of some really rare stuff back in the day, and I'm pretty sure they ran an episode of "Toma." Sure wish someone was doing that now. I'd take a sample episode of some of these shows over no episodes at all.

 

[JamesSmith]

I think there was a series called "All's Fair" which starred Bernadette Peters and Richard Crenna.

Which shows do you think would be "strong" enough for a DVD release?

[Michael Rogers]

I remember Invisible Man, Apple's Way and Planet Of The Apes.

MATT LINCOLN starring the late, great Vince Edwards. ABC brainlessly scheduled this series at 7:30 opposite Flip Wilson and Jim Nabors. Imagine a series about a psychiatrist who dealt with college age students often reluctantlly coming to a walk-in clinic desperately seeking help airing at 7:30. Of course, it missed its target audience and was cancelled after sixteen episodes. This was a well written quality series with great guest stars. Matt Lincoln was a cross between Room 222, Mod Squad, which are both out on dvd and the great series East Side West Side. Vince Edwards was a great actor who is missed by the public. It is the distributors who have forgotten him. MATT LINCOLN is my dream series for release.

Haven't seen The New Dick Van Dyke Show mentioned yet.

Edit - Ran longer than I thought it did, so it wasn't really short lived I suppose.
