Shadow Chasers

The 1985-1986 ABC supernatural mystery comedy series Shadow Chasers follows the exploits of the Paranormal Investigation Team, comprised of Edgar "Benny" Benedek and Professors Julianne Moorehouse and Jonathan MacKensie - who conducted bizarre, obsurd case involving ghosts, poltergeists,

witchcarft and other strange happenings invading a small town. A pre-And Now, I Pronounce You Chuck & Larry Dennis Dugan played Benedek; and Nina Foch and British character actor Trevor Eve gave their brilliant performances as two of the three parapsychologists who made up the PIT.

Sixteen episodes of Shadow Chasers were broadcast by ABC in late 1985 and again by the Armed Services Television Service in mid-1986.

The Absent-minded Professor

In this 1961 Walt Disney Pictures science-fiction comedy, Fred MacMurray stars as Prof. Ned Brainard, an absent-minded scientist who discovers an anti-gravity substance known as "Flubber" (flying rubber). As Prof. Brainard experiences Flubber, something is going to happen - how free and clear this mysterious

"flying goo" does is what happens when he places the material inside a Ford Model T, just to prove how magical his invention is. Traveling in his classic automobile, Prof. Brainard flies over the City of Medford -

bounces on and off the basketball court - and goes after the notorious Mr. Hawke, who attempts to steel

his invention and gets away with hilarious outbursts.

It wouldn't be too long until the early 1990s, when NBC aired a pair of The Absent-minded Professor telefilms starring Harry Anderson as Prof. Brainard.
