Notes

1. The date given is the first airing date on NBC. The date given for USA is the first airing date as well as it couldbe determined.

2. Information is culled from the actual air tapes and various TV guides.3. Just the primary credits are listed. For the most part these were the credits listed at the start and finish of the story.

The cast also includes those listed in the show’s closing credits.4. The missing airdates for the movie andThe Canary Sedancame from the episode guide in Epi-Log magazine is-

sue #17. There are three NBC episodes where the air date in Epi-Log differs from this guide, but at this point amnot going to try to figure out which is correct so they are left as is. Epi-Log did not even try to list air dates for theUSA episodes.
