I used to love watching that show. I had a huge crush on "Sister Steve." I haven't seen it in years, unfortunately. The pics posted in this thread have disappeared, unfortunately.

Signed,

Wink I LOVE Father Dowling Mysteries!

I taped a ton of episodes, including the 2-hour Father Dowling "movies" when it was originally on. I still have the VHS tapes. I am PRAYING (get it? hee hee) that they will soon release some DVD boxed sets. I will buy them all.

I also have quite a few of the Father Dowling mystery novels by Ralph McInerny, a professor at Notre Dame. Worth checking out until the DVDs come out. Many if not all of these earlier books were NOT made into TV shows.

And yes, I am a Roman Catholic. :-)

Patty

Thought Hey 3scompanyfreak!

I forgot to mention that Suzanne Somers and I share a birthday---October 16! Also sharing a birthday that day is another TV mystery star, not Father Dowling, but Angela Lansbury!

Yes, I liked Father Dowling Mysteries when it was originally on whatever network it was on originally. But I have not seen it in syndication yet.

I loved this show as a kid but the pilot sadly didn't hold up when I watched it a few months ago, so I never went beyond that initial episode. I suppose it's interesting to note that Father Dowling preceded a few current British "crime solving priest" dramas where the priest does FAR more detective work than......priesting.
