TWO FOR TUESDAY - KHRZ-TV


We finally have a way to link ‘Ironside’ and ‘McMillan and Wife’ with more than just the fact that both shows take place in San Francisco.

‘IRONSIDE’
“FIND A VICTIM”


Chief Robert T. Ironside and “former” second-story thief Lou Karns appeared on a public affairs program hosted by John Barbour who would later host NBC’s ‘Real People’.

‘McMILLAN AND WIFE’
“DEATH IS A SEVEN POINT FAVORITE”


Sandy King was a sportscaster who covered the Hawks’ football games and got caught up in a betting scandal involving quarterback Billy Benton.

As you can see in the pictures, what connects both of these episodes is KHRZ-TV, Channel 16.

One more O’Bservation – “16” is one of the Numbers in the Valenzetti Equation from ‘Lost’.

BCnU!

    Amazing detective work! Nice tell-tale screencaps, too. I haven't seen the IRONSIDE episode but remember the MCMILLAN & WIFE since it had so many great guest stars. In addition to John Anderson in your picture, Don Stroud, Andrew Duggan, Larry Pennell, Jackie Coogan, and a pre-BOB NEWHAR SHOW Peter Bonerz as a menacing hairstylist.

    Glad you liked it, Gary! I always get frame grabs of TV station and network logos just in case something like this might happen. KBEX holds the reord I think and is in the TV Crossover Hall of Fame.
