Members DRW50 Posted May 25, 2012 Members Share Posted May 25, 2012 I hadn't ever heard of For Love and Honor. The soap magazines didn't seem to cover it. Second Chances was a decent show, it deserved a longer run (I know they had the earthquake damage). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Matt Posted May 25, 2012 Members Share Posted May 25, 2012 I remember "For Love & Honor". I didn't watch it, though. It wasn't on very long at all (September 23, 1983 - December 27, 1983). The networks had prime time soaps out the wazoo in '83. The same season, CBS premiered the short-lived "Emerald Point, N.A.S." (which lasted just about as long) and NBC also premiered "The Yellow Rose" (which also didn't make it past that season, but did warrant a weird repeat run during the summer of 1990. Also on the air during the 1983-1984 season were the standard bearers "Dallas", "Dynasty", "Knots Landing", & "Falcon Crest". "For Love & Honor" aired at 10pm on Fridays and was up against "Falcon Crest" on CBS and "Matt Houston" on ABC. It's lead-in was "Manimal". NBC has never had much success with their Friday schedule. lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JackPeyton Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 I loved Push. I saw it for the first time about 8 years ago at a friends house. Sad it didnt last, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 It was one of those shows like Lone Star which seemed to get a lot of press support but viewers were not interested at all, for whatever reason. I think ABC just wasn't a network for the hip young primetime fare. This was not too long before their big hit was Millionaire. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 If Push had been on The WB it would have done well, i think. Well, well for them anyways lol. It was very young. ABC kept trying for years to grab the young demos with a young show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 Yes, Relativity, this, Wasteland, etc. I don't think they ever had any of the young demo hits. Homestead became Four Corners, didn't it? If it had lasted more than a month I probably would have given it a try. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 (edited) Yep. FOUR CORNERS had a terrific premise, I thought. Unfortunately, I don't think CBS was patient enough. It seems they had forgotten that it took awhile for DALLAS and KNOTS LANDING to become hits for their lineup. ETA: Just wanted to add that I recall to this day an end-of-episode moment where Ann-Margret's character tells another, "My son is not for sale." It was the kind of "Oh, SNAP!" moment that reminded me of Jacobs's other shows at their peak. Edited June 27, 2012 by Khan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 I'm surprised it even got through in a Les Moonves era. Maybe it was a leftover. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cheap21 Posted August 6, 2012 Members Share Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) That looks like Linda Gray, Jamie Luner and Jennifer Lopez! LOL. I read this got a spinoff. How did a failed show that got cancelled with only 6 episodes warrant a spinoff? ETA: Just found out that IS J Lo Edited August 6, 2012 by Cheap21 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
