To calm the waters here at avalon, here are some old
70's tv shows that some of you may remember.
Alice
The Alice TV show was a 30 minute comedy
series on CBS about a woman who works as a
waitress at a diner in Phoenix, Arizona.
Her interactions with her son, fellow ditsy
waitresses, and goofy boss provided the opportunity
for many funny moments.

B.J. and the Bear
The B.J. and the Bear TV show was a 60
minute comedy series on NBC about a trucker
and his pet monkey who travelled around the

Buck Rogers
The Buck Rogers In The 25th Century TV show was a 60
minute sci-fi series on NBC about astronaut Buck Rogers
whose spaceship's life support was damaged during a
routine space flight. That mishap left his frozen body
wandering aimlessly through space. Five centuries later,
he was found, revived and came to the realization that
there was no way back to his life in the 20th century.
He found the future Earth recovering from a nuclear war
and under attack by an evil empire. Buck Rogers joined
Earth's defense forces in their fight and despite is lack
of knowledge about 25th century technology, he became a
major player in the fight. You see; apparently humans had
lost much of the ingenuity that men of the 2oth century
came by naturally. Buck was always able to figure out a
way to succeed in the fight against all odds! For the
second season, a starship is sent by Earth to find lost
Earth colonies with Buck Rogers along for the adventure!
