Room 222, Mod Squad, Starsky & Hutch, Quincy, Incredible Hulk - off the top of my head. There are probably others, but I don't remember them.

I never heard of that show The Magician. I guess Bill Bixby did that before the Hulk. It looks like he has one of those killer spheres from the Phantasm flicks. :)

Soul Train (of course)
American Bandstand
Hawaii Five-O
Kojack
Starsky & Hutch
Mod Squad
The Rookies
Dukes Of Hazzard
Kung Fu
Mission Impossible
Night Gallery
Gunsmoke

...And yes, The Magician was before the "David" Banner days - and it was a great show - he was a magician running around solving crimes, using his wits and the occasional "magical illusion"

That's right, funny a lot of people don't remember that one coz' it was very popular here.

Here's a link with more details: http://www.crazyabouttv.com/magician.html

I forgot about "Baretta"!!!!! Too bad I never saw "Captain Scarlet". I had the toys though!

The Magician was shown here in The Yuk during the '70s. I also recall a series called Executive Suite, a sort of Dallas before it was invented.

Hey Videoskooter, "Have girls will travel" was called "The American Girls" when shown in the US. It starred David Spielberg. Ring any bells now?
