TV shows nobody else remembers

[UnderdogDJLSW]

I liked the Phoenix and Wait 'Til Your father Gets Home. I too wanted the New Odd Couple to work, but was disappointed. I liked James at 15 (and 16). I like the Rockford spin-off Ritchie Brockleman (sp?). I also liked the show where David Hartman was a school teacher. I do not remember the name of that one. Anyone remember the comedy Best of the West with Joel Higgins from Silver Spoons and Salvage 1?

I remember a movie of the week where a guy made an armor suit like Iron Man and he couldn't walk until he wore the suit. Something went wrong and the suit lost power-maybe due to gunfire, and he asked a young black kid to press some buttons on it to re-start the suit. The kid saw the suit but before he approached he looked up all around the sky to make sure there were no UFO's in the area. I don't know what that was.

There was a comedy/mystery/soap on NBC same season as Cliffhanger and Supertrain which seemed to be like the Clue board game turned into a night-time soap/sitcom. I can't remember what that was.

I do remember A Man Called Sloane, Sledge Hammer!, Masquerade, Wait Till Your Father Gets Home.

How about: Gene Rodenberry's Spectre movie of the week, Lady Blue, Strike Force with Robert Stack and Trisha Noble?

I kind of remember 'whoops' but couldn't have told you the name. And Werewolf with Chuck Conners.

'Highwayman' had big loud Australian guy who was in a battery commercial at the time. He was the MR T of the show.

Back when Sci Fi was new they aired 'the Phoenix' but I don't recall much about it.

The Master had one of the Van Pattens in the 'karate kid' role I believe.

I remember the New Odd Couple. How about 'Baby, I'm back' with Demond Wilson

Yes to Masquerade with Kirsty Alley. I still know some of the lyrics to the opening.

I remember QED. It was set in the past. He was an inventor/adventuerer?

I laughed so hard at 'It's your move' but it seemd to fade quickly. How long can a kid keep a guy from hooking up with his mom?

How about "We Got It Made"? Kind of a switch on Three's Company with two bachelors and a live-in hot blonde maid. Early 80's.

Yeah. The show they gave Dr. Who's budget away to so they could cancel DW! I checked the last book outt'a the library to see how it all ended.

I remember it! I have the issue of Playboy that actress was in. The show was cancelled at one point and then they did it live on stage for broadcast.

Thats with James blueshi and Mr. mom ,Batman, night shifts guy.
They go the great leader(looks like a jiffy pop Bag) to get asigned a job .

Ah, 'Working Stiffs', what an excellent show..!! Short lived, but Belushi and Keaton..?? A wonderful matchup.

And yes, 'Wait Until Your Father Comes Home', an excellent show.. Watched it all the time.

'Course I'm still the proud owner of ALL those 'Fall Preview' TV Guides from '75 through the 80s, so I like to look up shows that didn't last long but always cool to see how young some actors looked before they got really famous later on.

"Wait Till Your Father Gets Home" which was an animated sitcom that I believe was shown in prime time. It is on DVD but I swear I am the only one that remembers it. It was created by Hanna-Barbera and only ran a couple seasons. I was about 7 years old when it first aired. Haven't seen it since (I'll pick up the DVDs some day) but for some reason it has stuck with me for a long time.


Of course I could go on and on about the really bad Saturday morning shows like Electra Woman and Dyna Girl, Land of the Lost, etc.

I caught episodes of that show on Boomerang, as well as another lost to the ages prime time animated show called "Where's Huddles?"

Anyone remember Project UFO?

[mazinz]

no one I have come across remembers this Hanna barbara short lived show called "joke book". It was aimed at adults, prime time slot and was animated with a number of shorts by various artist all adult themed for the most part. Aired on NBC or ABC and the theme song was sung by Scatman Crothers. I have one episode on tape but that is it

Even in toon trading sites no one seems to recall this early 80's outing

She was smokin'

[The Toyroom]

How 'bout "The Quest"? Or "Renegades"?

[The Toyroom]

A cartoon that I never hear talked about is "The Houndcats"...I don't recall much, if anything, but I think I really liked the baseline of the theme song...Unless I may be confusing it with something else....
