I was talking to a friend and she was describing a television series that she remembers watching that I didn’t recognize (we’re the same age) but thought someone here might. The data, from what she recalls:
It was an hour-long series on Friday night. She doesn’t remember which network.
It was an anthology show, with 3 different and independent serial story lines on each episode (so about 20-minutes each)
One story line was about vampires. Another was about a cowboy who travels through time. She didn’t remember the third.
The three story lines didn’t have any overlapping cast members, as she recalled.
The show was canceled after only a handful of episodes, so none of the serial story lines were resolved.
She estimates this was in the early to mid-80s. I figured if anyone knew about this show, it would be a Doper. Any recollections or leads?
No, I’m familiar with all of those (including the Twilight Zone reboot from that time), and those all had stories that were self-contained. In her show, these story lines had recurring characters but were otherwise independent of each other, other than sharing the same programming block and wrap-around program title.
