Never saw one single episode .


Im not sure what accounted for my taste in tv shows as a kid.. i was all over The Fall Guy, The A Team, Moonlighting , Matt Houston, et al but wasnt really a viewer of Hunter, TJ Hooker, Remington Steele or many others .

im remembering a late 70s show - it was somewhere between an anthology show and basic procedural
under the same umbrella you could get 1 of 3 possibilities - one was like a texas detective working in NY (he even rode his horse on the streets in the promo - maybe it was dennis weaver)
another one might have been hart to hart??

man it's wacky what the brain does
Colombo was actually the 3rd in the 'umbrella' and i transposed 'McMillan & Wife' for 'Hart to Hart' which, i think, is understandable...:

• McCloud, starring Dennis Weaver as a rural Taos, New Mexico lawman temporarily assigned to the New York City Police Department (NYPD). Inspired by the Clint Eastwood 1968 film Coogan's Bluff, the show debuted the previous season as part of the hour-long NBC wheel show Four in One.
• Columbo, starring Peter Falk as a deceptively bumbling Los Angeles homicide detective. The series was derived from a 1968 made-for-television movie, Prescription: Murder, which starred Falk in the same role.
• McMillan & Wife, starring Rock Hudson and Susan Saint James as a husband-and-wife crime-fighting duo. Hudson's character was a hep sophisticated San Francisco city police commissioner. Saint James later left the series and it was renamed McMillan.
