More on 70s TV
Not that I'm on a 70s TV kick, but I have to mention that the entire first season of The White Shadow is finally on DVD. Produced in 1978, this show dug into the hearts of basketball-loving teens and set a precedent by covering issues such as drinking, pregnancy, and gambling (eat your heart out Richie Cunningham!). To put it short, the writing was great. I really liked the shorts, too!Unfortunately, The White Shadow was short-lived (kick me for using that word again), ending its last "quarter" in 1981. Even so, its writers duly noted their abilities and went on to work on other exemplary shows like St. Elsewhere, NYPD Blue and Northern Exposure.
Get it from Amazon.
