1970-71 Short-Lived TV Shows

This video is a compilation of most of the shows that were new, and cancelled (or those that were mid-season replacements), from the 1970-71 prime time TV schedule. A couple of the intros are missing, but I've included some of the details of the show.
This follows the days of the week, and time slot that these shows would have fallen on.

19:17- "NANCY" was Sidney Sheldon's final series. He wrote all 17 episodes, using the same aliases when he wrote various episodes of "I DREAM OF JEANNIE" from 1967 through '69 {"Mark Rowane", "Allan Devon", "Christopher Golato"}, because he didn't want to see his name credited too many times during each episode.

Andy Griffin having two shows canceled within a year slowed his career a bit by the mid 70's.

Andy Griffith was in a bind. He tried to move away from Sheriff Andy Taylor but people wouldn’t accept anything else. He didn’t find a steady gig until “Matlock”.

[@fortynights1513]

What happened was the pharmaceutical company Bristol-Myers paid $3.5 million back in 1970 to get a season long series starring Andy Griffith. The initial show was Headmaster which didn’t work out in the ratings and was canceled at midseason. The New Andy Griffith Show; which aired in the second half of the season in the same timeslot might not have ever been greenlit if Headmaster had done well enough in the ratings to go to the end of the season.

Side note: The 1970-71 TV network season gets my vote for the most interesting season in the history of broadcast TV. We have the rural purge at the end, and as a result, we have a mix of programs that were on TV that spanned different eras. Consider that on one end you have The Ed Sullivan Show, Lawrence Welk show and Red Skelton Show. Three programs that had been on TV since 1948, 1955, and 1951 respectively. If we are counting shows that originated on radio, then 1970-71 was also the final season of Kraft Music Hall; which first started in 1934. And on the other end of the spectrum, just getting started were All in the Family, the Mary Tyler Moore Show, and in its third season was Hawaii Five-O. Shows that went to 1979, 1977, and 1980 respectively. This was also the first season of Monday Night Football as a regular telecast, which is still active of course (though it was exclusively on cable for a number of years). All those shows intersected for one season, and that one season is 1970-71.

It’s hard to imagine The Bold Ones NOT being successful. It had a powerhouse of top actors. It’s the only show on this list I remember, although I was only 12. Interesting that Dan Hartman was in both the Bold Ones and San Francisco International Airport.

I also liked The Bold Ones, but it did have a lot of popular competition. Although the premise of having different genres every week was original.

[@Jim-Tuner]

The Bold Ones lasted several years. It was only the segment "The Bold Ones: The Senator" that lasted one season. It didn't do so well because every single episode was a political lecture.

[@theessentials450]

IT was successful...4 seasons. The New Doctors was at least.

[@tommylitz4543]

The Bold Ones was a good show that ran from 1968 to 1973. Thats hardly short lived. I think it was the Hal Holbrook character that was short lived due to bad writing. His segment was sort of like West Wing, except he played a Senator. The political premises were unrealistic or very heavy handed. It was usually him, for some reason, standing alone against hollow headed strawmen, and needing to somehow convince anyone with half a brain to see things his way. Audiences tuned out.

[@prairiedogsareextant]

The Dan August clips are hilarious. He's always jumping, leaping, running into camera. I'll bet he picked up an injury or 2 on that show. And a friend of mine was so bummed out when The Immortal got canceled. It was worse than The Beatles breaking up for him.

[@jrussellcase]

So I've watched a few of these videos. My biggest question is "why didn't some of these shows make it?“ If you look at the stars, as well as who produced them (Sheldon Leonard is a prime example)...all I can think is that films and TV finally had that unavoidable meeting of the minds, not to mention that a lot of the older 60s shows got forced out. Movie stars were finally embracing television, and TV stars were trying to hang on to what they had built. PS: who doesn't love Sandy Duncan? 😁

I had included 'The Tim Conway Show', which aired starting (and ending) in 1970, but it wasn't part of the 1970-71 schedule. It falls on the 1969-70 schedule, and it ran from January 1970 to June 1970. I also had to change the thumbnail, as I had used a photo from "The Tim Conway Show" on it. I had also (mistakenly) typed "1871", when a date was supposed to be 1971. I reference multiple sources for dates/times, and their dates can conflict. There's also some (understandable) confusion, because even if a show only had a few episodes, they might have aired those episodes twice in two separate blocks, and I wrote the original airing coupled with episodes that were reran in a block later on in the year.

RIP Lou Gossett. Never saw Young Rebels. Remember watching Tim Conway Comedy Hour. The Bold Ones was a good show. I liked it. Don't remember The Young Lawyers. Always liked Don Knotts. Liked a lot of those listed variety shows. Didn't watch Men at Law, but, Gerald O'Loughlin I remember from The Rookies. Don't remember Make Room For Granddaddy. Had some good people in it. Don't remember The Immortal, but, Christopher George was in The Rat Patrol. Never saw Dan August, but, it has a good cast. Never watched Barefoot in the Park TV show. Nancy had a good cast. For The Interns Mike Farrell looked so young. Headmaster had a good cast. Don't know why it didn't make it.

I found the theme on another anthology; but I am surprised by the absence of the theme(s) to "TheAquqnauts"/"Malibu Run".

The sad thing about "The Senator" was that it won several Emmy awards, including star Hal Holbrook.
