13 episodes of Coronet Blue were filmed in 1965. CBS supposedly thought the show would be above the heads of viewers and put it on the shelf for two years. Then, in 1967, they aired 11 episodes it and it quickly became a hit. But by then, the star, Frank Converse, had moved on to the police drama N.Y.P.D. The premise of the show was that Michael Alden (Converse) found himself shot and with amnesia and could only remember the words Coronet Blue. The show was created by the great Larry Cohen, who also created The Invaders, Branded and a huge number of other classic shows. I have all 11 episodes plus the two unaired episodes. A script was supposedly written for a 14th show but never filmed. The show was ultra-modern for the time and was filmed in and around New York City.
