In the early part of 1977....while still in high school....NBC came out with a series called 'Grizzly Adams'. Each episode was about 45 minutes long.
For some odd reason, this became a huge discussion item in high school the next day. We'd meet in the ten minutes prior to class, and a 'talk' would open up....why 'Ben' did this....why 'Nakoma' was always right....why the bear didn't eat someone on the show?
It's funny....the show lasted for two seasons....making around 37 episodes. Script-wise? It was 75-percent 'crap' (my humble belief), but NBC was so screwed on material....it probably made sense.
If you tried to produce the show today....it'd be too woke, and be dumped within a week of the first episode.
