Makes Dusty's Trail.look good

Producers and actors had to take a shot which in many cases changed their lives forever. However, many shows like this one went right to the waste basket for obvious reasons. Nevertheless, the poster of this channel has struck gold and shared it with those of us who are interested in these shows that were "pitched and produced" but never picked up. Thanks for this great channel.

This is so bad it's amazing.

Ultra rare! Bob Denver never even mentioned this.

I understand why🤷🏼‍♂️🤓😎✌🏼

Jerry Paris directed , The Dick Van Dyke Show and Gary Marshall of Happy Days wrote the script , what a gem . Bob was a great father, comedian and human being. I think his oldest son was in the industry as well with special effects. And also a son with special needs.I think we all owe Bob a "way to go little buddy " when you watch today. "😊😊😊

Nice to see Bob Denver play a genius for once.

The reason why the Scared Stiff comedy series is such a big deal is that it's another one of those post-Gilligan's Island phases for Bob Denver. 🏝 🤣 😆 😂 😄 🤔 🏝

Not true. These allegations were never proven. It was a largely made up campaign against him by Sharon’s manager who didnt want her tied down to anyone. The contract she subsequently signed forbid her from becoming publicly involved or engaged with anyone for the good of her career.

Really, this isn't that bad. There were certainly worse shows that made it on the air. I mean, one of the shows CBS *didn't* pass on that year was "Me and the Chimp".

it's hard to make a succesful tv show when you have a man that's only popular in gilligan's island, like max bear jr acting career was already dead after the TV show beverly hillbilies, it's like you're career is dead after a hit show due to you're looks, people will always remember you for that hit show, and the rest of you're career is down the toilet.

Extremely interesting casting choices, and the premise ALMOST seems plausible, but the writing? Typically bad Garry Marshall/Larry Belson.

Bob had to know this wouldnt work. Horrible, but interesting. Bob didnt play the total idiot in this. R.I.P😥

Not the best, but you can tell the actors were trying with the material that they had. Abbott and Costello vibe. It was just annoying how the Austin guy kept saying "I got it!" Bob Denver still in his "Gilligan" persona somewhat, just explained as him being an absent-minded professor. Meant to be a mystery of the week comedy with a horror twist. I'm thinking that the network was thinking "where can we fit this in our lineup?" and just gave up.
