Excellent , I appreciate these short movies as I call them much more than I did back in the day as a boy. The stories, drama, and acting excel anything anywhere like them today . I wish there where more of them made .
I've watched three episodes of this great TV series without General Savage...seems strange without him. Still a great series and thanks for the upload.
In 1964, Lockwood guest-starred as Major Gus Denver in the first season of 12 O'Clock High, in episode 9, "Appointment at Liege", and again in 1965 in episode 29, "V For Vendetta". He also guest-starred as Lt. Josh McGraw in season 2, episode 4, "The Idolator" of 12 O'Clock High. I was surprised they used him as Lieutenant after being a Major in season 1.
Yeah, I worked 2 jobs in Chicago before I joined the Army. Born and raised, joined the Army in 1979 (19 years old). Spent 23 years active and another 8 as an Army Instructor. Always took care of the family. 😎
Paul Burke's first guest star role after "Naked City" was cancelled was a 1963 episode of "The Lieutenant" starring Gary Lockwood. Lockwood played marine second lieutenant Bill Rice and Burke played Captain Thomson, an officer back from Vietnam who will be forced to retire for "too long in rank" if he isn't promoted to major. Richard Anderson played Burke's friend and commanding officer who had to write an evaluation of Burke's performance. All three actors were superb in that fine episode. Gene Roddenberry ("Star Trek") created and produced "The Lieutenant". Richard Anderson played General Dowd, a recurring role in "12 O'Clock High" near the end of the run of the show. General Dowd was a flying general, a little like General Savage. Anderson became a big Quinn Martin favorite, appearing in the last episodes of "The Fugitive" and as the chief of police in "Dan August". Gary Lockwood also became a big Quinn Martin favorite after his three strong performances on "12 O'Clock High". He guest starred on most of Quinn Martin's shows. Lockwood was in six episodes of "Barnaby Jones" with lovely Lee Meriwether, mostly playing psychotic nut cases - so there wasn't much of a chance for romance. But Paul Burke like Robert Lansing never worked again for Quinn Martin after "12 O'Clock High" was cancelled.
Hey now. Buzzing the Colonel's field is one thing but moving in on the Colonel's girl is crossing the line. Also, Josh is a "hot dog" and that will get his crew killed.
I realized that Burke's character would be different from Lansing's but I thought I'd give him the benfit of a doubt. I'm sure, friend or no friend, Gen. Savage would have reamed this guy up one side and down the other. Buzzing the airfield, didn't identify himself on approach, failed to respond to the towers call and finally ignoring the signal to abort landing. While they might not have been able to forfeit any pilots back then, I'm sure Savage would have done everything he could in the way of punishment except take his wings.
A good commander - for the sake of his whole unit - would ship "Josh"-the- Jerk off foe three years of duty at the air field at St. Lawrence Island, Alaska. (Look that place up on Google)
That's Hollywood. Nearly every war movie/show had characters misbehaving (insubordination, subversion, desertion, disobedience, etc) in ways that could have gotten them executed, or in the brig pending dishonorable discharge. Hell, if you want to see an orgy of this, watch MASH. Every one of them would have been tossed.
As soon as I saw Gary Lockwood's name I knew this was going to be a typical piece of crap! Everyone of these I've seen that he has been in has been the same and he makes you want to bust his head open with a baseball bat!
@@dwightstewart7181 MASH was a comedy; it is supposed to exaggerate things. This is supposed to be close to reality. Instead, they compound their idiotic decision to replace Lansing by dumbing down the script to fit the lesser commander. Nobody would even dream of writing this script for Savage. The most inane part is having Brit change his mind too. What in the world did McGraw do to earn another chance and an about face from the top brass?
@@dwightstewart7181Agree about MASH. They presented every enlisted man as an unsophisticated moron, and every officer (except the regular stars of course) as a foaming at the mouth, war mongering degenerate.
When I was watching this as a kid season 2 was not as good. I missed Robert Lansing, didn't care much about Burke. Back then 32 shows a season, now about 10 per. I think the show would have lasted longer with Savage at the helm.
Season 1 has desperately low ratings, prompting the remodeling of the show. Much is put on the cast lead here, but there were so many other factors affecting the show's fate. Though not admitted, ratings were up during season 2, enough to guarantee survival for one more year. The Fates would not give the series a long life, and no matter what they did or who they cast. As with Original Trek, some worthy series just didnt resonate with "the Mass Audience" which was more faithful to shows like "Andy Griffith, " "Lucy", "Bonanza," etc.
Richard Bong, perhaps you've heard of him, looped the Golden Gate Bridge and buzzed a number of local streets before shipping out to the SW Pacific theater.
so how do you make a war picture that pleases everyone these show are really well done they are representive of the war effort and people that fought lost their lives in the process to make america great back then we have lost what war does to people and the long term affects it has on people and a country
Lee Meriwether looks smoking hot in uniform with her hair up. Lockwood's character is almost the same from Star Trek TOS, kind of a douchebag who has a superiority attitude. At least he redeemed himself.
Yeah but I liked him playing Gus Denver myself, he was a complex character and was a Major. Also Robert Hogan (the co-pilot,) had been a few episodes playing General Savages co-pilot
I believe there was a Japanese pilot who flew over Guadalcanal. He was (I think) called Washing Machine Charlie and was supposed to have been the basis for the MASH character.
@@jstetzer01 Doesn’t sound like sound military thinking. Don’t want to foul a runway, and burning/exploding aircraft not easy to push off a runway. However, can’t speak to World War II USAAF procedures in that situation, but being a former member of a B-52 squadron during the Cold War, it was made very clear to us in combat training that the survival of the aircraft was far more important than our lives. The saying was, “You have to survive the aircraft,” which, in typical military fashion, didn’t mean for us to survive, but for us to get that aircraft back no matter what so that others could fly missions with it.
Mary ---- thank you for the stout defense. There sure are a lot of "cranky" comments posted here. I'm grateful for the thumbs up. Only other show I find with really NASTY comments on line is Season 2 of Space 1999. Like HAL the computer said in 2001, (they) "should sit down, take a stress pill and think things over."
Core of the problem was Audience Ratings. Nothing they could do could beat the odds against this show. Even Original Trek had much difficulty landing an adequate sampling of the General Audience. Both managed just 3 Seasons.
If Savage had that happen this guy would be cleaning the head and peeling potatoes for the rest of this natural life in the service.....Gallager can't match Savage in any way, shape, or form....he's a putz.
The Soviets massacred Polish officers in the Katyn forest and blamed it on the Germans. The Germans went in there and showed proof it was not them who did the massacre.
USAF precision bombing bridges in Poland? And the supposed area was 100 miles SE of Lwów, deep in present day Western Ukraine? WTH. The plot in the second series has turned into sheer Hollywood fantasy.
He didn't deserve a transfer to some cushie fighter group command. I would have just given him orders to a different Group, and be done with the fake drama.
I would figure after a long mission that most of the B-17 would be almost sucking on fumes when they landed. why is it that most of the times B-17 made it blows up in a fireball. I would think it wouldn't have that much fuel onboard. but I guess that is the way Hollywood makes it happen
That's a model, they tend to crash and burn more dramatically than a real one. Watch the size of the flames. Flames and the size of waves on a ship will show you which is real, or a model.
Another bad script. How TF would a B-17 hit POLAND in 1942 or early '43 when they couldn't penetrate German airspace? The bombers didn't have that kind of range, either. Totally off the wall.
The B-17's had a 2,000 mile range, even carrying 6,000 pounds of bombs. The problem wasn't the range of the bomber. The problem was the limited range of the fighters early on in the way. They couldn't escort the bombers deep into Germany. As a result, B-17 casualties were astronomical. It wasn't till the p-51 fighters entered the war in 1943 that the bombers finally had fighter support all the way to the target and back. This made a world of difference for the bombers and gave the U.S. air superiority over the skies of Germany.
In real life they flew direct over the target and then landed in Russia to refuel. It was rare, but those "shuttles" also allowed our USAAF to film places like Auschwitz from the air...so we could see what the NAZI's were doing "down there". FYI...I am a vet...a WW2 "history nut", and agree they should have never replaced Robert Lansing. They did so at the time looking for a "younger audience" and the funny thing is, Paul Burke was older than Lansing! When the shows ratings finally flopped, the studio claimed it was because they ran out of color combat footage when TV had just gone to color in primetime. Of course,,,that was a "network lie" which nowadays they do as S.O.P.
@@m10bob22 to be fair, they actually did do the "Shuttle" Mission concept later on. If you have watched the show, I am amazed no one mentions the Co-pilot of the crew usually flew co-pilot for General Savage in several missions, also the pilot? Isn't that Major Gus Denver!?
Robert Chance Thank you for that valuable Refresher. Appreciated very much as I am just now attempting to get reacquainted with the details on these vintage aircraft. Again, my thanks.
I don't understand scripts like this, are there actually guys who will go out of way just to fuel an obsession to another man that hasn't thought about them in years? The same exact childhood jealousy thing happened in an episode of Gunsmoke, having to prove the man you put on a pedestal isn't really as big as you made him out to be. It can't be that serious. It's funny because it was Michael Forest then and now Gary Lockwood and they are some of my favorites from this era but the character motivation seems silly.
General Savage would have had this punk locked up the moment he buzzed the field. Gallagher shows no leadership and is not following the chain of command.
So they replace the exceptional Robert Lansing with someone with more sex appeal. And replaced Stoval with "Sandy" because he's young and attractive. All of the story lines involving Sandy stretch credibility to the breaking point. No wonder the show only lasted three seasons.
The series overall, like Original Trek, wasn't resonating with the MASS Audience no matter what they did. For commercial reasons everything is tried to keep a show on the air as long as the network and the investors want to try and save it.
Gallager sure goes by the book until it comes time to give a decent salute. All the salutes are horrible. I realize they are trying to show the fly boys as more relaxed rebels or whatever, but these are the worse in any ww2 show or movie.
Watched part of a movie where a general (Gregory Peck) busted a sergeant to private because he wasn't wearing any rank. Wonder what he would have busted this general to for not wearing any rank?

Always liked Gary Lockwood. He had a series in the early 60s called " The Lieutenant". Found it on tv a few yrs back.
Gary is best remembered for his portrayal of the ill-fated astronaut Feank Poole in 2001: A. SPACE ODYSSEY.
Gary Lockwood seemed to play a lot of roles as an odd, dark, smart-alec type.
I enjoyed this one very much. Thak you for all these that you posted !
Another great episode.
Thanks for the upload.
Also - thanks - no commercials.
Another great performance by Andrew Duggan!
The co-pilot is played by character actor Robert Hogan. I read that the lead in “Hogans Heroes” was named after him.
In 1964, Lockwood guest-starred as Major Gus Denver in the first season of 12 O'Clock High, in episode 9, "Appointment at Liege", and again in 1965 in episode 29, "V For Vendetta". He also guest-starred as Lt. Josh McGraw in season 2, episode 4, "The Idolator" of 12 O'Clock High. I was surprised they used him as Lieutenant after being a Major in season 1.
Well scripted with excellent actors. Keep em coming.
NOT this one. I can't stand any of the one's Lockwood has been in...he and his arrogance sucks!
@@richardcline1337 He's an actor. He didn't write the story.
"Get some sleep" was the best advice I ever got in the old days when I worked two jobs in Chicago.

Keep waiting for GARY Lockwoods eyes to glow!
Thought the same thing ...LOL
Real world the showboat pilot would be court martialed
Hey now.
Buzzing the Colonel's field is one thing but moving in on the Colonel's girl is crossing the line.
Also, Josh is a "hot dog" and that will get his crew killed.
We have good ole "B1" Bob Dornan as the copilot of Gary Lockwood's plane, an interesting character in southern California conservative politics.
Jim Nesta That's Robert Hogan as Lt. Guy Kelly. I think Robert K. is playing The Lilly's Co-Pilot Capt. Bob Fowler this season.
Agreed. Soap opera script. Thirty plus episodes a year. Can't all be good. Still for for fifty year old tv, pretty good.

This is a great episode I grew up watching 12oclock.Maybe that is y I m a 10 yr Vet
Lee Meriwether is the most beautiful woman in the world.
In all honesty, she reminds me of my mother as I remember her in 1948. People were very classy in that time period. She passed away at 90+ years.

Nicely said. Thank you.
love Lee Meriwether so pretty
The music (at least the introduction) is very similar to Star Trek.
Music on the show traveled across several TV series, including Outer Limits and more QM shows.
Lansing as Savage was fantastic. Burke is only ok in the roll of a group commander.
Love see this show
Leigh Meriwether ....who else is going to show up in this series ???
Great picture one the best ever picture 3/21/24
Great show....Paul Burke did a wonderful job .
Burke lancing both terrific acting
That's what I think also.
Thank you Theresa.
Goodbye, Josh. Goodbye. We hardly knew ye.

Yeah but I liked him playing Gus Denver myself, he was a complex character and was a Major. Also Robert Hogan (the co-pilot,) had been a few episodes playing General Savages co-pilot
Speaking of TOS, then there was Lansing in Assignment Earth S2E26.
Season 2 does not have the grit or believability that season 1 had.
Big story on why the show was remodeled. Focus is on the cast on this matter, but the core of the problem was Ratings and Audience Acceptance.
Its going Well, Miss Gen. Savage.. He up there Doing missions in that Big bomber in The Sky!!
I wonder if "Bed Check Charlie" was where the T.V. show "M.A.S.H" got "Five O'clock Charlie" from
I believe there was a Japanese pilot who flew over Guadalcanal. He was (I think) called Washing Machine Charlie and was supposed to have been the basis for the MASH character.
@@davidlium9338 Washing Machine Charlie was also in McHale's Navy
Wouldn’t they get all the other planes down before attempting to land a severely damaged plane that could mess up the landing area?

Why Robert Lansing not in it ? Not even picture/photograph allowed?
@Maria Kelly, watch ruclips.net/video/RlTYI_D1_Xs/видео.html. That's how they wrote Savage (Robert Lansing) out of the scripts.
How could they have canned Robert Lansing, just not the same, Lansing was the man!
The sponsor at the time, Haggar Slacks, wanted someone who looked younger (sigh).
Core of the problem was Audience Ratings. Nothing they could do could beat the odds against this show. Even Original Trek had much difficulty landing an adequate sampling of the General Audience. Both managed just 3 Seasons.
A quarter of a million dollar airplane! And the beautiful Lee Meriwether! Back when most women were actually thin, and without buffalo asses!

big explosion after a long mission, they should have almost sucking air from those tanks
Sorry, less fuel over large almost empty tanks, unless nitrogen is kept in them means an explosion like that is more likely then!

You misspelled "idolater" in the title, with an "o" instead of the "e."
With an "o" is the accepted British spelling. Common to many words ending "er" in American English.
