BUS STOP
ABC at Sunday 9:00 PM (60 min.)
Premiered: October 1, 1961
Last Aired: March 25, 1962
Starring Marilyn Maxwell
The bus stop of this series
was a dine in Sunrise, Colorado, a small town in Rocky Mountain country. The
continuing characters included Grace Sherwood, the working owner of the diner,
Elma Gahringer the waitress, Sheriff Will Mayberry and DA Glenn Wagner. The
stories revolved around the people passing through Sunrise, and many an unusual
character stepped off that interstate bus.
The program earned national notoriety
and probably early cancellation due to an episode titled "A Lion
Walks Among Us", which was based on a Tom Wicker novel and starred
rock singer Fabian Forte as a youthful psychopath bent on murder and mayhem.
This segment was widely denounced for its explicit violence and sadism and was
cited in Congressional hearings on violence in television. The president of
ABC-TV when challenged by an angry senator as to whether he allowed his own
children to watch such a series, stammered and admitted no he did not. Shortly
thereafter the show ended permanently.
