Channing
Channing (also known as The
Young and the Bold) is an American drama series
that aired on American Broadcasting Company from September 18, 1963
to April 8,
1964. The series depicted life at fictitious Channing College, with
Jason Evers
in the lead role of Professor Joseph Howe, and Henry Jones as Fred
Baker, the
dean of the institution.
Channing, a production of Revue Studios, aired during the same time
frame as the
first season of NBC's somewhat similar offering, Mr. Novak.
According to the story line, Professor Howe had served in the Korean
War and was
writing a novel in his spare time. In a 1964 episode entitled "The
Trouble with Girls",
Keir Dullea and Mark Goddard appear as roommates who clash over a
girl,
Lynn Walton, played by Joey Heatherton. Dullea's character has a
nervous
breakdown and leaves college.
Don Gordon played Mario Saccone, a 37-year-old soldier who returns
from
South Vietnam and enters Channing College. This is more than a year
before
the large United States troop commitment to Southeast Asia and the
subsequent
breakdown in campus order at many institutions. Gordon is interested
in the
younger wife of an older political science professor named Jonathan
Kobitz,
played by Jacqueline Scott and Wendell Corey, respectively. Robert
Lansing
appeared as an alcoholic professor wrapped in self-pity. Rip Torn
appeared as
a graduate student with multiple degrees who remains at Channing
because of
his social life.
