      Yeah! I saw 2 episodes of that. I recall the eldest son returned from war and had been a cook-not a fighter and was ashamed to tell his father. Ione Sky played the sister.

      Does anyone remember Wizards and Warriors on CBS in 1986? It starred Duncan Rehrger, Jeff Conaway and Julia Duffy?

      Kim Richards plays Christina Ricci's character's Mother in Black Snake Moan. Appears 2/3 of the way into the picture in a scene in the Supermarket!.

        I used to watch what they called "garbage dump theatre" in the summer, all the failed pilots. I remember "the paul williams show" pilot and one that centered around a man who built androids, clearly inspired by Star Wars.

        As for regular tv, "A Man Called Sloane" is one of my favourite 70s shows but few remember it.
        Robert Conrad show? His partner had a weird robotic hand?

        Here are a couple:

        And because of all their tears,

            From Wikipedia:

            Teri Copley (born May 10, 1961) is an American actress. She was best known for her roles on the American television series We Got it Made and I Had Three Wives. She posed nude for Playboy for the November 1990 issue.
            Shortly thereafter, Copley became a born-again Christian and slowly eased her way out of celebrity Hollywood.
            As of December 2005, she was still living in California and very involved with her family. She is a published author of Conversations Between a Girl and Her God and professional speaker. Her first interview in nearly a decade appeared around June 2005 on Free MP3 Bible website and again at Christian Hollywood website where she spoke about appearing in Playboy.

            According to IMDb her last acting gig was in 1996:

            R.I.O.T.: The Movie (1996) (V) .... Jewel Richards


            Here's 2 from Connie Selleca that people don't seem to remember much anymore:

            "Beyond Westworld" .... Pamela Williams (5 episodes, 1980)

            "Flying High" .... Lisa Benton (18 episodes, 1978-1979)

              Trying to remember a show that was like Miami Vice...even had a theme song by Genesis "Just A Job To Do" It was on ABC.

              Early days of Fox..."Herman's Head"
              "The Street" with Jennifer Connelly
              there was a spinoff of Married With Children...it had Joey Lauren Adams and Matt Leblanc in it
              "When not too many people can see we're all the same
              And because of all their tears,
              Their eyes can't hope to see

              Isn't it a pity".

                I'll bet nobody remembers these early WTBS produced series:
                Rocky Road. About a family that owned an ice cream shop. I think the parents were dead or something and the kids ran it. Looked it up and says it started in 1984 but I could have sworn it was earlier. The theme song is still stuck in my head.
                Down To Earth. About a lady angel. I think she died in the 20's if I recall. Dick Sargent played the male lead.

                          Aperans, the Haven for Wizards and Warriors


                          Their most excellent theme music-sounds like Galaxy Quest. I can't post it until I get their permission but go to the site and enjoy it!

                            there used to be an old showtime or HBO comedy show (sitcom style) I cannot recall the name but Heaven turned out to be everyone in a hot tub room (no it was not dirty) and God was a Spanish janitor who cleaned up the place. Does anyone recall this?

                                I know you all remember 'The Hitchiker' on HBO (or Showtime..???). In the 90s, it was the best way to see some nice skin in nice sensual scenes...
