AboutMarcia Studley Expertise I`m a true member of the tv generation! I grew up doing my homework while watching the classics of the 60`s and 70`s and today, they are still my favorites. I have a big library of tv and film reference books at my disposal, as well as a large video library. My memory is pretty darn good too, and when that fails, I can hit the books and/or videos, not to mention a few friends who are as devout tv gen members as I am. Please note that my expertise is with American tv only.

Question What was the name of the 1980's show that was on before St. Elsewhere? It was a family drama.
Answer HI Ellen,
There really wasn't a family drama on before St. Elsewhere. For two years, it as Gavilan starring Robert Urich. Every other year, the show was different. One year it was Robert Blake's Helltown, and two other years it was various comedies.
You must be thinking of another timeslot or show. If you need help with that and have more information, let me know, and I'll try to help!
