What's on TV? Monday, July 13, 1970

This week's listings come from the Twin Cities, and while there isn't anything earth-shattering on tap, it's one of those days when you get a pretty good idea of what television was like in the day. It's a night with a mix of reruns and syndicated summer shows, and somewhere in there you'll hopefully find some of your favorites.

I'm not positive, but since school's out for the summer, I suspect KTCA was off the air until 4:30 p.m. Oh well, signing on for the day with Mr. Rogers isn't the worst thing in the world. Today, he teaches kids how to whistle.

The 7:30 p.m. movie Dial Hot Line is the pilot for the upcoming fall series Matt Lincoln, starring Vince Edwards as David Leopold. If all that sounds a bit confusing, it's because - according to the always-reliable Wikipedia - the name of Edwards' character was changed after the movie to avoid comparisons to the Leopold-Loeb thrill killing of the '20s. (Wikipedia also tells of a typically tart essay on the show by Harlan Ellison.) In the end, none of this mattered - the show failed to last more than 16 episodes.

He Said! She Said! is really a product of its time - none of the celebrities' spouses have names of their own, despite Brett Somers being a celebrity of her own; of course, her real fame comes with Match Game a few years later. And then there's Meredith MacRae's husband, Greg Mullavey, best known for Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman; he's still acting. For the record, Carlin's wife was Brenda Hosbrook. TV
