I remember a television show from the mid to late Eighties that I considered 
a modern day TAGS and it was called "Evening Shade" with Burt Reynolds and 
Merilu Henner.  It always had good, clean humor (from what I remember of it) 
and focused on the residents of the town as much as it did the two stars.  I 
also remember during a dinner with George Lindsey that he was supposed to be 
added to the cast as the town Mayor, but despite its good ratings, it was 
canceled.  I recall that shortly after getting the axe, Mr. Reynolds was 
irate about the shows demise and was very vocal about it.  Too holesome for 
the networks, I suppose.
