The CBS TV network aired this "CBS Late Night" promo for the last week of October in 1986. Featured are "Adderly," "Night Heat," and "T.J. Hooker." Video remains the property of CBS, all rights reserved.
Night Heat was one of the best of a bad bunch...who needed ancient reruns of McMillan and Wife or McCloud and crap shows like Two of Diamonds and Silk Stalkings when there was Carson (or Leno, or Joan Rivers, filling in)? As a kid I always wondered why they bothered, and didn't just put some talk show on...then they kind of made me long for the block of bad shows when Pat Sajak showed up to bore us all to death.
i remember seein` these promos when i was a teenager!During the 85-86 season CBS aired reruns of SIMON & SIMON on mondays,HOYSHOTS on tuesdays,ADDERLY on wedneddays,NIGHT HEAT on thursdays and TJ HOOKER on fridays.Now,we`re stuck with crappy talk shows.Hell,if NBC is successful we`ll be invaded with talk shows on primetime too(JAY LENO~s new crap-fest!).Oh how i miss the 80`s more and more everyday!
"ADDERLY" and "NIGHT HEAT" were among several first-run Canadian series that the network aired on "CBS LATE NIGHT" in the mid-'80s, as well as a new season of "T.J. HOOKER" {the last original one produced} in 1985-'86, after ABC cancelled it in prime-time.

@marauder908 I recall TJ HOOKER being on Tuesdays, and HAWAII FIVE-O(okay, it was merely tagged as McGARRETT) on Fridays at this time.

Night Heat was a great show. The show is sometimes on rerun on Canadian tv.
