I am OLD!

Here are some that I think many wont even know of.


Mister T & Tina, with Pat Morita, from 1976/77 on ABC, a James Komack spinoff from Welcome Back Kotter.

Hot-L Baltimore, 1977, ABC, a Norman Lear production, based off the play.

Aaron's Way, with Merlin Olson, NBC, 1988

Helltown, with Robert Blake, NBC, 1985

Palmerstown USA,CBS, 1980 with Bill Duke & Michael J. Fox

Sons of Thunder, 1999 Spin off of Walker-Texas Ranger, lasted only 5 episodes, and got great ratings, I guess Norris wasn't having none of that.



Has any one seen the NEW Sigmund and the Sea monsters on Amazon TV???? curios...

Just thought of another one

ENOS (spin-off of Dukes of Hazard)

Basically another fish out of water detective show like McCloud and Due South

[Earth 2 Chris]

^I watched Enos. He had a streetwise partner named Turk as I recall.

Another show I liked a lot as a kid was "The Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo" I was bummed when they cancelled that...

With Claude Akin! Who I also remember as the Super Polygrip guy...

I still sometimes sing that theme song: "Our Sheriff Lobo, mighty Sheriff Lobo, keep us strong (move 'em out)"

Aaron's Way, with Merlin Olson, NBC, 1988

Palmerstown USA,CBS, 1980 with Bill Duke & Michael J. Fox

I have some memories of watching both of those shows...

With Claude Akin! Who I also remember as the Super Polygrip guy...

I always think Claude Akins for his portrayal of "Aldo" in "Battle for the Planet of the Apes"... And I also seen him in quite a few old Western series, where he usually portrayed outlaws...

[jwyblejr]

^ I remember him for the episode of The Twilight Zone he did.

[Mr.Marion]

Fairly Legal was really good.

[Mego Magyar]

THE PHOENIX

Look it up

I was thinking of that one myself :-)

[Mego Magyar]

Anybody else remember 240 Robert and Code Red ?

Loved 240 Robert, have watchable copies of it

[Mego Magyar]

Veritas The Quest - only 4 of 13 episodes aired, I forget what kept preempting it, maybe the Iraq war

EZ Streets - only 9 episodes, cop show starring Ken Olin. Helped introduce me to Loreena McKennitt

The Gangster Chronicles- one season 13 episodes

Have watchable copies of all

I loved Vegas on CBS. It had Dennis Quaid, Michael Chiklis, and Carrie Anne Moss. I really liked the show. The cast was great. I was really let down when it was cancelled.

[emeraldknight47]

Fairly Legal was really good.

Agreed, Fairly Legal was a decent show and Sarah Shahi is EXTREMELY easy on the eyes (I remember her as the very first protagonist, "A Woman in White" in the series opener of SUPERNATURAL.

Another GREAT show USA ended prematurely was "IN PLAIN SIGHT." Mary McCormack's Mary Shannon was hilariously caustic and Frederick Weller was the perfect foil as the super dry Marshal Marshall.

One more addition I have seen not seen, remarkably enough, on anyone's list is THE GREATEST AMERICAN HERO. I'm actually surprised we haven't seen a reboot of it yet.
