Eischeid was one of David Gerber's last projects for Columbia Pictures Television, along with the equally ill-fated David Cassidy: Man Undercover, the latter a spin-off from Police Story. Joe Don Baker ("Walking Tall") had the title role for his only series gig.
Unfortunately, NBC fumbled by putting Eischeid opposite Dallas. Ballgame over.
In this sampler, Eischeid must clear Captain Finnerty (Alan Oppenheimer) of a murder charge. Jim Backus and Shelley Berman guest star.
In memory of Baker, 89, who has passed away. No rating out of respect.
