We never matched the pilot once we got rolling with it.’ He notes that the cast was ““wonder- ful,’ but the writing never measured up. ““We were dying.”’ ABC wasn’t ready to give up on Gsaaoe TURNED DOWN? ¥ The Year of pSbee jerously kk ('83) (PG) Mel Gibson, Sigourney Weaver.

The setting was moved from Chicago to Los Angeles, and the title was changed to “Pros & Cons’’ (after a brief incarnation as ““Bird & Kati’’). Jones and Madge Sinclair, who plays his girlfriend, move to California after Bird meets a fellow private investigator, O‘Hannon (played by TV veteran Richard Crenna) while on a routine case trailing a husband whose wife suspects him of philandering. The two investigators get drawn into the same case after the philanderer actually turns out to be a hitman whose target is O’ Hannon. The pilot moves through the initial meeting of Bird and O‘Hannon and resolves the case that leads to permanent teaming of the two detectives. Jones is more satisfied with the results. ‘“‘I can’t second guess audiences. I never try to. I’m having a better time at it. It’s making more sense to me. Richard Crenna is a great partner to work with, both behind the camera and in front of the camera. The stories, essentially, are not biting off more than they can Chew, which is kind of what ‘we did last year. We ended up with two weeks to shoot the pilot, and that was not ‘more than we could chew, but thereafter, any story that got that complex, that Tich, was really more than you could do in a week's format. And this year we are not doing that. We've been very careful ‘to pick simpler ‘stories, ‘true shown October 15, 22, 29, November 5, 12 and 19.
