NEW YORK (Variety) - Thomas Calabro (``Melrose Place''), Lee Majors and
Australian martial arts actress Kim-Maree Penn star in ``Hard Knox,'' a
proposed syndicated TV action drama being pitched to stations for fall
2001.
In the five-minute sales tape, Niki Knox (Penn) owns a security agency,
and Calabro's character is her partner, a former cop. Majors (``The Six
Million Dollar Man'') plays her father.
The show's distributor, New Line Domestic TV, billed it as a cross between
``Moonlighting'' and ``Rush Hour.''

promotion. Episodes will be - SMDM: "Golden Pharaoh" and "Burning

The next general release throughout all stores will be on July 3rd,
with the following titles - SMDM: "Solid Gold Kidnapping" Pts. 1 & 2
(although orginally a movie, this was subsequently aired as a two-part
story) and "Survival of the Fittest", BW - "Return of the Bionic Woman"
Pts. 1 & 2, along with an as-yet un-confirmed 3rd title.
It's been reported that the long awaited "Bionic Movie" is alive again, but this time as a comedy penned by the Farley Brothers.

That's all for today's update. Be sure to subscribe to the mailing list if you haven't already. List members will get the latest news first. Until next time.

Don't forget that tomorrow is our one year anniversary!
As some of you might have previously heard, at one time a Big Valley reunion movie was being talked about. At the moment, Fox seems to be at a stand-still. To let Fox know the movie should be made, Big Valley fans across the Internet have started a campaign. To help out, send a letter to Fox at the address below. If you'd like to help, but don't know exactly what to say, there is a form letter below the address.
20th Century Fox
C/O Business Affairs Office
10201 Pico Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA 90035
To whom it may concern:
This letter is to let you know that there is a great deal of sentiment out here in viewing-land that a Big Valley reunion tv-movie would be a very good thing. There is a considerable base of Big Valley fans over a wide age-span, both people who watched it in its original broadcast and those who have become fans during syndication over the years. I would like to stress that these fans would not be satisfied with a re-cast of the Barkley characters but would like to have the original actors playing the original Barkley roles. Adding young faces for the next Barkley generation is perfectly understandable and indeed desirable, but those people should be additional to and not replacing the original Big Valley actors in their original roles.
Thank you very much for your attention.
Sincerely,
Your Name
