Promising pilot for Michael Landon's last TV show, 3 May 1999
Author: brendt from kennesaw, ga

This was the 2-hour pilot episode for a new TV show that Michael Landon began putting together when he was convinced that he was beating the cancer that eventually took his life (the show aired a few months after he died). Landon plays a man released from a long prison term after being cleared of the murder for which he was wrongfully convicted. His teenage son thinks he's dead, and Landon's relationship with his father isn't much better. The show seemed to be headed toward being (at least in part) a character study as the three generations of men re-build their relationships.

Although still easily falling in line with Landon's trademark family-friendly dramas, "Us" appeared to be headed in a slightly edgier direction than his previous work -- the protagonists are far from perfect, issues aren't always resolved in an hour, etc. This show had promise; yet another aspect of what we lost when Landon died.
