Love it nothing like the original Hawaii 5 0

You said it.

That picture jumping really brings back old school memories when we had those kind of tv's.

The way this "fall preview" was assembled, it could be presented as a complete special- or the previews of each new show could be aired individually, in various time periods around the local station's schedule wherever a few minutes was "open" {during a movie, or after a newscast}. The "window" these previews- or the full half-hour - could be shown was between August and September 22nd, 1968.

18:30 - Herb Alpert?

[@RetroTube55]

Yes! on April 22nd of that year he had a special on CBS promoting his latest album and if you look very closely at 18:33, it's literally just a couple frames, there is a very short clip of that special as well. Good find! Thanks for watching

Lancer had promise, but even Andrew Duggan couldn't keep series longer than two seasons.

[@fromthesidelines]

The series had decent ratings in the first season, but its competition- "THE MOD SQUAD", on ABC- attracted more viewers, and season two was "disappointing" to the network......and that's why they cancelled it in 1970.

13:42 there’s Arnold from Happy Days.

Had a crush on Patricia Hardy ever since she appeared on Occasional Wife. Major Babe.

@January thank you. I stand corrected.

[@reving19]

James Stacy before the accident. Kind of odd that Andrew Duggan asks for his arms and legs.

[@jonimichalski9193]

Lancers similar to Bonanza or Big valley in some ways and others not

1,, It showed Lucy but now Lucy 2. It went until Thursday but no Friday. 3. I did not realize Mayberry RFD ran three years. Worse show I ever saw. 4. Hawaii 5-0 became a legend. These are the only two shows you can call winners. All the rest were losers!

[@fromthesidelines]

That's because there were no new programs scheduled on Fridays that fall. CBS continued its successful lineup of "THE WILD WILD WEST", "GOMER PYLE, U.S.M.C." and "THE CBS FRIDAY NIGHT MOVIES".

[@tomservo56954]

They also had nothing ready from THE DORIS DAY SHOW to air...and the opening still shows Bea Benaderet, although she had already left PETTICOAT JUNCTION (and would die that October...her husband following within days)

[@tomservo56954]

James MacArthur's scenes came from the episode "Samurai", as a different actor played Danny Williams in the pilot movie.

[@Pisti846]

The Dodge Lancer was better.

[@briankeller788]

So was Lancer hair tonic, as advertised on the "What's My Perversion?" segment of Woody Allen's "EYAWTKAS...BWATA".
