Forgotten TV: Dog & Cat (1977)

During the summer months back in the day, networks often burned off shows that weren't good enough to air during the regular season. These programs often lasted anywhere from 6-10 weeks, then would fade back into the archives, never to be seen again.

One such case was Dog & Cat, which anchored ABC's Saturday night lineup in the summer of 1977. The term "Dog & Cat" was police slang for a male/female team of police officers. That being the case, you could say that, in the 80's, a better version came along in the form of Hunter (previously reviewed).

Dog & Cat was a sort of reward for actor Lou Antonio, his first starring role after years of guest roles on other shows, such as Star Trek (where he was famously paired with Frank Gorshin). Kim Basinger was a relative newcomer at the time, looking for her big break, which would come in movies a few years later.

There will be no rating, as I never saw the show. There is a foreign voice-over attached.
