I loved this back then, I've just got to get the DVD, there was one particular story I can recall, memory is very vague on the detail but he was doing a show in the story where he "disappeared" on stage in a puff of smoke, he actually went through a secret door, but then he had to deal with some villain all in the space of the time he "vanished" to the audience, he had a tape of his voice on, so they thought he was still around, after dealing with matter he reappeared, fun stuff.

Why'd they change his name to Blake from Dorian?

[SamHillFilms]

@tdelamont There was a RL (real life) magician by the same name who complained (threatened to sue?) So they changed it. They kinda rebooted the series & changed a few things, like the scars on Tony's wrists. I just uploaded the pilot in 9 parts. :-)

I love seventies girls, they had class, they were sweet, sexy and fun why cant women these days be like them :) Bill you were a lucky man

[d4seasons]

@DaWrath2 the series was cool & classy. the 1970's was cool & classy. Bill Bixby had class & good looks. i still miss him. those girls were sure pretty.

Thanks for posting this. This used be on ITV (UK channel) at 7.00pm on Friday evening. What a way to start the weekend!!

[SamHillFilms]

@MrChops27 You're welcome. I've now uploaded the pilot in 9 parts & will upload the 2nd episode soon.

[Banner1979]

He sure was. A few Incredible Hulk episodes were filmed there, like the Li Sung ones and The Psychic, which featured his ex-wife Brenda Benet (RIP).

[Banner1979]

Christopher Stone's in this one. He would go on to star in Streets Of San Francisco episode Police Buff, once again teaming up with Bill Bixby.

Bill was from my neck of the woods. San Francisco, California

I just LOVE Bill Bixby in this series. He was so gorgeous!

[60sThru80s]

That terrific theme music still gives me a chill down my spine. In summer '76, ABC would run it after midnight. I have fond memories of sneaking out of bed on a school night to watch it. Pre-DVD and VCR, all I could do was audio record it. It is so weird to see it again after having only heard it for the past 30 years. It's a very visual show, so I'd forgotten much of the action to go with the sound that's burned into my brain.

thanks for uploading this i just show this show to my dad and he has never heard of this show and he is 48 years old!!!

[SamHillFilms]

YW! This was one of those incredibly underrated and short-lived series of the 70's.

Lasted only 1 season.

[Alexhalulko]

Great Episode! I Love it.
