Shows that didn't last long

[sodbuster]

Howdy Folks,,,,,,,,,,,,I'm 49 yrs. young so i'm going a ways back,,,,,,,,,,,,,but I remember a comedy called "HE & SHE" that lasted only a year or 2 that was one of the "hippest" funniest sitcoms I ever saw!( around 1970?) Starred Paula Prentiss & Dick Benjamin ,,,,,,,,,& Jack Cassidy . Also another show starring Robert Loggia called T.H.E. Cat,,,,,,,,,,,,he played a "Bodyguard",,,,,,and I can still remember the "THEME" music (circa 1968)! Does anyone remember these & know where copies of the show can be found??? Then Came Bronson was a GREAT idea also starring Michael Parks as a man trying to find "HIMSELF" traveling the Country on motorcycle,,,,,,(1972-74?)! During that same time,,,,,,,,,,,,was a show called "SIERRA" (I think?),,,,,,,,,,,a conservation wildlife format,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,John Denver wrote the theme song,,,,; Sierra majesty beneath the sky,,,,,,,,Sierra wilderness where eagles fly,,,,,,,,,,,she is my life to me,,,,,,,,,,she is my home,,,,,,,,,,,etc. etc.

Forgot to mention,,,,,,,,,,Sanford & Son & "The Tonight Show" were 2 all-time favorites!!

"He & She"..."T.H.E. Cat"..."Then Came Bronson"...I remember ALL these shows, and I'm not that much younger than you are, sodbuster. ("T.H.E. Cat" was my favorite when I was a kid...it's a shame it didn't last longer...ditto for "Bronson"...I always felt that "He & She" was a dry run for "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" {the GOOD one from 1970-77}, but that's just my opinion {besides, Jack Cassidy's character, a vainglorious actor, was indeed similar to Ted Knight's "Ted Baxter" on MTM})

Speaking of Jack Cassidy, he was originally considered for the role of Ted Baxter and played Ted's brother in an early MTM ep.
