Why is it that I feel those seventies shows are better than anything on today? --james

A few things I remember about Lucas Tanner. It had a nice theme song which hasn't shown up on youtube. And Tanner was dealing with the aftermath of losing his wife and son in some sort of accident. It gave a nice tinge or sorrow to the show. GMBurns, still hope that more episodes of Governor...

Neil, what is your opinion on the Governor and JJ? I've been very curious about it and remember it vaguely. Was it a comedy or drama? Wish more late sixties and early seventies one year series would come out. You also remember Lucas Tanner, would like to see more of that. --james

How about some series that only lasted THREE to FOUR episodes like, Judd Hirsch's Detective in the House ABC's version of Foul Play Young Maverick. For right or wrong, I liked them. --jthree

Forgot about Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future. Had a tremendous first season cliffhanger that needed a follow up. Someone else mentioned the CBS 2000 version of the Fugitive. You know, the Tim Daly one. I liked She Spies and what was the one with Brisco County Jr . . . Jack of All...

Quark Sarah Conner Chronicles V (second series) Firefly Superman and the Legion of Superheroes (animated) When Things Were Rotten Man From Atlantis The Big O There are more, I've always loved the more broad comedy series that get to be a bit outlandish. --jthree
