There are too many great episodes to go into and so many future stars to list. The episode with Julie Newmar, 'Vicki', sticks with me. It seemed like a set up for a spin-off. Maybe not. Many of the episodes had Buzz and Tod resolving others problems. Some dealt with their own search for female companionship. They weren't Lotharios, that is clear. There's a streak of conservatism in some of Buzz's basic outlook on life. The show is quite liberal in what it delivers to the audience. Tod, though a college grad hasn't gotten enough street smarts for some of the situations he encounters. Its also clear how shows like Twin Peaks, ER, Miami Vice owe a small debt to this program. Something must have happened in the second season because Martin Milner was doing introductory v.o. for many of the episodes in the latter part of that season. Many fascinating actresses passed through: Sylvia Miles, Marion Ross, Lois Nettleton, De Ann Mears and Inger Stevens among them. Big directors as well with Arthur Hiller, Sam Peckinpaugh and Robert Altman. A rich piece of television if you've been avoiding it because perhaps Milner might turn you off. These shows reveal that he could've gone on to better projects if fate were kinder to him.
