Back in action

We've been working furiously restoring all of the episodes of the STEVE CANYON tv series from the original 35mm network broadcast masters, and I've gotta tell ya that they look and sound terrific! I can safely say that they have never been seen like this before...network broadcast standards of 1958-1960 notwithstanding. The level of craftmanship that went into these 34 episodes is a revelation, and we will be sharing movie, stills and sounds from the restorations here in the days to come leading up to the release of these episodes on DVD later this year.

In the meantime, here is one of the many publicity photos we've uncovered in our archives that hasn't seen the light of day in many years. Thanks to Laura Lozano for the all the hard work scanning and organizing this and other materials to come!

Col. Steve Canyon (played by Fredericks) meets an old friend, Susan Alexander, who plays the part of "Jeets" in the STEVE CANYON episode, "OPERATION TOWLINE."

This shot is from the pilot episode, shot in late January/early February 1958 at the Hal Roach Studios. That's Nancy Valentine as the blonde nurse on the left.
