The sequence with Parnell Roberts talking Davey through landing a plane is so great. But it won’t keep him past the pilot.

Speaking of, does anyone know where a person could watch the unadulterated version of San Francisco International? I’ve been able to find almost all MST3K movies on YouTube in one form or another, but that one in particular seems to be Google-proof.

I found an eBay listing. Some dude has a DVD-R for $20. I assume they got the files somewhere, so it’s floating out there somewhere on the internets.

It had to have been part of it, but there was also a rejection of the brighter and softer colors in the 50s and 60s. They just really overcorrected from torquise sedans into prune colored muscle cars

I went for super stud.
I wonder how San Francisco International Airport relates to the big airport and disaster movies trends of the 70s. It seems perfectly timed and yet it was short-lived and is even more forgotten than the rest of its disaster movie and NBC Mystery Movie relatives. Airport came out in May of 1970, made $100 million off a $10 million budget, and was followed by Airport 1975, Airport '77, and The Concorde... Airport '79. San Francisco International Airport premiered in September of 1970 and its seven episode original run ended in December of the same year. It was probably inspired by the same 1968 novel that Airport was based on. Was San Francisco International Airport just a little too early or too late? Did the constraints of television keep San Fran from matching the spectacle needed for the airport disaster genre?

After the pilot Pernell Roberts was replaced in the lead role with Lloyd Bridges. Did this influence the casting of Bridges in Airplane! (1980)? Surely audiences would have understood Airplane! as a parody of the recent genre, but would they have remembered that Bridges had been part of its start a decade earlier?

It was almost certainly an experiment in "Can we do Airport as a weekly series...and mostly about what's happening on the ground, to save money?" My guess would be that, as a non-cop, non-hospital procedural, it just didn't catch with viewers in the 6 episodes it was allotted as a wheel series - and it definitely didn't help that it was up against Hawaii Five-0 on Wednesday nights.
