Subject: What show was this?

Written By: Carl on 10/06/05 at 11:51 am

It took place I would say late 70s ('79 or so) basically about a group of teens on the California surf scene, having drag races, usual dating scene, stuff like that. I think it was on Monday nights, bt not sure. Any ideas?

Anything else you can remember? Cast members? Charactors names? Your description is very general.

LOL!!  :D I know, VERY general! But I really can't recall any familiar actors in this. I just know it was on WCBS ch 2 I think on Mondays.

Maybe it was supposed to take place in Malibu Beach?? Hope that helps a bit.

I never said this wouldn't be tricky. Not sure anyone will get it, but who knows.

Maybe it was called 'Malibu High'?

I couldn't find anything on CBS on Monday nights called Malibu High. Could it possibly be Square Pegs. Here is a link to a site that gives you the line up-for whatever year.

Try there and let my know what you come up with.

Well, came up short! I'll bet it was one of those series on short term filling in for another, or maybe it was so bad only a few episodes ran that wasn't worth recording. Thanks anyway! ;)

I think I remember this show that you're talking about, it was on for a very short time. I think Kristy McNichols brother Jimmy was in it, and I can't remember the title but 'California Dreamin' comes to mind.
