Boy, what a season that was! It was Fred Silverman's first as NBC president and chief programmer (but most of it had been fashioned before his arrival that summer). Virtually none of the new series survived by mid-season [including Joe Namath's "THE WAVERLY WONDERS", "DICK CLARK'S LIVE WEDNESDAY", the medical documentary "LIFELINE", "W.E.B.", "THE EDDIE CAPRA MYSTERIES", "WHO'S WATCHING THE KIDS?" and "GRANDPA GOES TO WASHINGTON"], save for a late entry, Gary Colman's "DIFF'RENT STROKES"...
Can I buy my gas for my car from NBC? It sure reminded lots of people of the Chevron logo? Was there a connection between them?

@fromthesidelines I think Eddie Capra Mysteries might have survived season's end.
