This was one of two that I was going to mention.
The other was one I didn’t remember the name of, just that it featured Drew Carey before The Drew Carey Show. Looking on IMDB, I see that it was called The Good Life.
Dusty’s Trail is definitely available on DVD. Several episodes have been combined into full-length feature film. CHCH shows it a couple of times a year in the 02:00–04:00 slot. That channel has a wide collection of old/obscure movies dating back to the early sound era.
They still are. In their 80’s, married 60 years.
There was another series with that name back in the mid-70s. It starred Larry Hagman, Donna Mills, and David Wayne, all of Dallas fame. A working-class couple became domestic servants for a millionaire to share in his lifestyle.
This is in addition the the British series of the same name with Richard Briers and Felicity Kendall, which in the US was known as Good Neighbors.
Yes, I’m pretty sure I knew it at the time. I had just forgotten it over the intervening years.
I’m glad to hear they’re still alive and in love in their 80s.
Who remembers this one, then?
Dean Martin Presents the Golddiggers in London is my example. A major variety show from 1965 to 1974 was The Dean Martin Show. It wasn’t on during the summer. Instead there were some summer-only substitutes without Dean Martin. One was a show (in 1968 and 1969) called Dean Martin Presents the Golddiggers, where the Golddiggers were a group of women who hosted the show. In 1970, to do something a little different, the summer replacement show was shot in London. Among the people who regularly appeared on the show were Charles Nelson Reilly and Marty Feldman. Reilly and Feldman did some screamingly funny skits. Remember, this was just before Monty Python sketches were shown on American television or movie theaters. To me, this was wildly different from any comedy I’d ever seen before. One of the Reilly and Feldman sketches was an adaptation of the sketch known as “The Four Yorkshiremen” (one of the funniest comedies sketches ever, I think). That sketch was first done on At Last the 1948 Show, a British show from 1967 that Feldman was on. No, the sketch was never done on Monty Python’s Flying Circus, although some people mistakenly remember that it was. A few people I’ve talked to remember Dean Martin Presents the Golddiggers in London, but not many.
Marblehead Manor was a farcical comedy sitcom on from 87-88 and starred no one famous (except pre-Seinfeld and UHF Michael Richards) about people living in and working at a manor house in New England. The owner, the butler, the cook, etc. I was only 8 when it came out so I loved it because I’m sure the comedy was about my speed.
I remember that Jennifer Grey show. It must have been heavily promoted. I think of that show every time I see her name.
That Ed McMahon murder mystery show sounds dope!
I do. I had a “thing” for the Golddigger wth the long blonde hair and never missed an episode. 
Once a Hero, about a comic boo hero, Captain Justice, who travels to the real world and learns that things don’t work the way they do in the comics. Clever dialog and a great job of subverting clichés. For instance,
Lady Reporter: What’s your name?
Captain Justice: Brad . . .
Lady reporter: Not Brad Steele, like Captain Justice?
Captain Justice (embarrassed that she knows his identity) No, Brad . . . Kent.
Like I often point out, the fourth episode (unaired) was about an actor who had gotten typecast playing a TV superhero and was frustrated about it. And who played the actor? Adam West.
The show got off to a bad start. They recast the lead at the last moment, which is usually a bad sign. A lot of affiliates never aired it (It was never shown in Boston) and it was on a Saturday night. This was the quick hook era of TV pilots, so it never stood a chance. I don’t think I’ve run across anyone who remembers it.
I’ll also mention The Middleman, a sort of superhero/spy spoof about a strait laced adventurer who took one weird threats (e.g., gangster gorillas, vampire flying piranhas, etc.), with his cynical artist assistant. Bizarre, very funny, filled with in-jokes and references to comics and TV. I have the DVD and just rewatched the pilot; it’s fantastic.
In the late '60s/early '70s, there were a bunch of “summer replacement” shows that I thought were decent entertainment: Jim Stafford, Glen Campbell, Bobby Darin, Kenny Everett (a Brit), Dave Allen (another Brit), Fifth Dimension (?), others. Good way to kill an hour when you were sick of the re-runs.
Bearcats – Rod Taylor and Dennis Cole drive around in a 1914 Stutz Bearcat as men-for-hire. Started as a TVM called Powderkeg. Yer damn right I went out and bought a scale model of that gorgeous car.
That show inspired many hours of building Tupperware ‘Snap-Block’ cars for me.
I remember the episode with the JN-4 Jenny. I loved the aerial photography!
Pretty big impact for only 14 episodes and a TVM.
Oh, yeah! Thanks for the memory!
Fred Silverman hated the show and did whatever he could to sabotage it.
Remember, at that time there were only three TV channels to really choose from.
Nah, Forster was especially memorable.
The Random Years (2002)
It was a very short-lived show about friends in their early 20s
All Souls (2001)
One of the scariest shows I’ve ever watched, set in a haunted Boston hospital.
The Others (2000)
No, not that The Others, this came first. A group of people investigate ghosts. The season ended with several characters in life or death situations.
Veritas: The Quest (2003)
An adventure show about a man, his teenage son, and two young assistants (Cobie Smulders and Eric Balfour) hunting relics
This was on around the same time as Arnie. I’m surprised that it lasted three years.
I remember that show, as did one of my coworkers. I know that because we as a team often toured around giving talks to the various offices, and my coworker and another guy had a little game where they challenged each other to insert a nonsensical phrase into their speech… and one day one of them gave the other guy the phrase “10 speed and brown shoe”. Completely cracked me up, but the guy got it in.
