It seems cruel to mention it, but I remember trying to watch "Bill" (I can't imagine why) and finding it absolutely unwatchable. I think the reference to Kirk Lazarus is correct.
I had apparently given up on network television by 1981, although I thought I had held on a little longer (I was, at the time, married to a woman whose idea of selecting a program to watch was LOP--Least Objectionable Program).
Good eye. It was Dennis Quaid. But then again, he was also in GORP at around that time, one of the worst movies ever made, a terrible MEATBALLS ripoff, with Michael Lembeck, Fran Drescher, and Rosanna Arquette in a Jewish summer camp.

I don't miss those old days.
I did watch MIDDLE AGE CRAZY, which wasn't very good. I remembered it was based on a Jerry Lee Lewis song but not that he was credited as co-writer.
Great song, pretty crummy movie.

/Is that guy supposed to be Dennis Quaid?
I cringed even then thinking about watching that one, Deb. So I didn't even try. That guy looks like Dennis to me. The big one, that is.

1981 was about the nadir of US tv during my viewing years. Even if some of the worst of the late '70s hits were (finally) gone...
