I love "made for tv" movies and old mystery shows. This one has it all. Great cast, brilliant camera angles, typical music for the time and decent script. Where in California was this filmed? The panoramic views are stunning! It's a shame this series never came to fruition.
Regarding the cast, Jim Hutton is pleasant as always. I can't count the number of tv movies Jessica Walters was in. She seemed to always play the villainess. Ed Asner's performance is the usual gruff sheriff. His Lou Grant series is still one of my all time favorites. I believe Jo Ann Pflug was on a game show or two but remember her most from tv movies.
This definitely one of the better pilots for an unrealized tv series.
