We complete our look back at 1974's fall season with CBS. The presentation is fronted by Ted Knight as Ted Baxter, the egomaniacal news anchor from The Mary Tyler Moore Show, with archived clips from that series and other returning favorites, such as Maude, M*A*S*H, & The Carol Burnett Show.
We've previously looked at:
Rhoda
Planet of The Apes
Paul Sand in Friends & Lovers
The Manhunter
We will soon see:
Sons & Daughters
Yes, Ernie Anderson is the off-screen announcer, before he took the full-time gig with ABC.
Forgive the poor video quality. While CBS has successfully bracketed fall previews in the past, such as the 1961 show with Garry Moore, this comes up flat.
Spoiler alert: Only one freshman series managed to survive the season----Rhoda.
Rating; B-.
