bikeman564™ Posted March 14, 2022 Share #1 Posted March 14, 2022 It's an older 70s show, and I've only seen reruns. But last night was a marathon of them on the Decades Channel. So I watched a few Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Posted March 14, 2022 Share #4 Posted March 14, 2022 I always liked Ken Howard and was a big fan of the show when it was on originally. This is the second White Shadow binge that's been on relatively recently. I watched a few the last go round and wasn't sure the show really held up, because what seemed gritty in the 70's isn't really so gritty any more. I believe Bruce Paltrow was one of the execs behind the show, so it had some quality people associated with the show. But I still mainly think of Ken Howard as Thomas Jefferson in 1776. ETA: Bruce Paltrow's wife, Blythe Danner, played Ken Howard's wife in 1776 and William Daniels who played John Adams was later in Bruce's series, St Elsewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was playing school basketball when that was on, so it was 'must see tv' 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralphie ★ Posted March 14, 2022 Share #7 Posted March 14, 2022 I only saw the promos for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prophet Zacharia Posted March 14, 2022 Share #8 Posted March 14, 2022 I am aware of it by rerun promos in the distant past (probably Nick at Nite, back in the 90’s?). Never really watched an episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razors Edge ★ Posted March 14, 2022 Share #9 Posted March 14, 2022 It was on when I was a kid, but I wasn't really watching much nighttime TV back then. I was more an after-school & Sat morning cartoon or reruns of Brady Bunch, Gilligan's Island, or similar TV viewer back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groupw Posted March 15, 2022 Share #13 Posted March 15, 2022 I think we watched it a few times. If I remember right, I’m betting the “white savior” aspect doesn’t hold up well nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
