Steve Forrest as Jock? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Did anyone else enjoy the season where Steve Forrest tried to convince everyone he was Jock? I know the ratings had slipped at that point, but I remember being glued to the tv every Friday night. I still enjoy watching it in reruns as well.

Mmmmm, well it certainly had me glued wondering where this storyline was going...but then Bobby came back and of course, that threw a screw in the mix...LOL

I enjoyed that storyline very much and I still think he could have been Jock. Just to many questions were left unanswered.

I prefer Steve Forrest in S.W.A.T

He was great in S.W.A.T. That show should never have been canceled. Parents at the time were so concerned about the violence in the show. It looks real tame today.

My God, how the times do change...the violence that was then, is hilarious now!!!! Funny how each generation thinks theirs is the worst regarding something. The 50's was abt rock and roll music...LMAO...if they could only see now what the music is saying, not to mention the videos that go along with them!!!!

I liked that storyline also, Steve Forrest has always been one of my favorite actors. Oddly enough, both Steve & the late Jim Davis starred together in an episode of "Night Gallery" called "The Waiting Room". Steve also starred in "The Last Of The Fourth Of July's" which is one of my favorite episodes of "The Six Million Dollar Man." Steve & his brother (Dana Andrews) also starred in back to back episodes of The Twilight Zone. Dana played Paul Driscoll in "No Time Like The Past & Steve played Major Robert Gaines in "The Parallel" Both episodes were from the series 4th season.

Wow, I'd like to see that episode of Night Gallery.

Dana Andrews and Steve Forrest are brothers?

Yes, Dana was 15 years older than Steve.

Steve can be seen in the SWAT remake that came out a couple of years ago. Look for him at the very end driving the SWAT truck. However he looked really old and was wearing glasses. I would have not recognized him had I not read his name at the end credits.
