Back in the day, the networks would start rolling out commercials promoting new series for the following fall around the middle of July. As it's the end of June, we're turning back the clock to 1975 for CBS' fall preview that year. We've previously reviewed the following:
Phyllis. 2nd spinoff from The Mary Tyler Moore Show.
Bronk. Jack Palance stars in his first series since 1963's Greatest Show on Earth. Carroll O'Connor (All in The Family) and Terry Becker (ex-Voyage to The Bottom of The Sea) produced the series for MGM.
Three For The Road. Family drama with Alex Rocco & Leif Garrett.
Big Eddie: Sheldon Leonard's return to acting.
Bicentennial Minutes. Short features leading up to the bicentennial.
Switch. Glen Larson's pairing of Robert Wagner (ex-It Takes a Thief) and Eddie Albert (ex-Green Acres) lasted three seasons. Co-starring Sharon Gless and Charlie Callas.
Doc. Broadway favorite Barnard Hughes as a doctor (of course).
We will be on the lookout for Beacon Hill. William Conrad (Cannon) is our tour guide.
