TLC - Pilot episode aired on August 8, 1984

  Burned off in the dog days of summer 1984 and banished to the Land of Forgotten and Unsold Pilots, here's the complete broadcast of another such example– TLC – which aired one summer night over the NBC Network via WMAQ Channel 5 in Chicago. This pilot was about two young men (James Vallely and Jonathan Schmock) who were admitted as the first male students at the Philadelphia Academy of Nursing; the cast was rounded out by Cathy Silvers (yes, for those who ask, she's Phil's daughter), Stacey Nelkin, Rosalind Ingledew, Mary Gallipoli, Jeré Fields, and Jessica Walter (R.I.P.) as Dean Craigmont. Also appearing were Rex Ryon, Ritch Shydner, Judy Walton and Wendy Levin.
