[COOPER&BURNETT]

These photos taken by ABC photographer Paul Slaughter, are from a failed ABC pilot that didn't make the 1978-79 ABC-TV prime time lineup.This is called a "contact sheet"The pilot starred DON JOHNSON and JOE BENNETT.There is no information on the name of the pilot.It looks like DON JOHNSON made failed pilots for both ABC and NBC before he hit it big with MIAMI VICE.More photos on the following pages.

Joe who?

Joe who?

I don't think this pilot helped his Joe's carrier.Before 1984, you would have said, "Don who"?

I wonder how one can find out the name of the failed pilot. I wish there was a way to WATCH the failed pilots Don did.

"Well if you don't succeed at first, try and try again."Looks like he did alright for himself.

I think Don needed to age up a little bit before breaking through, he looks like a kid here!

I think the photos were from a TV show called the "Two-Five", that never made it past the pilot.

Photos have a "Streets of San Francisco" feel to them.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068135/
