I've been watching 12 o'clock High on Youtube - they have all the episodes.

You get to see a Mustang or two now and again. Once in Season 1.

I MUCH prefer Robert Lansing to Paul Burke. But you see Mustangs more with seasons 2 and onward.

Blue skies Pappy (Robert Conrad)...

I watched alot of the 12 O'clock High episodes on YouTube. There are alot of famous actors in there who had bit parts.

I've been informed that H&I Channel is not available on the AT&T provider. Is this true in all areas?
Thanks!

We have it on AT&T here; of course H and I runs the time-compressed prints to jam in more commercials for Medicare supplements. Trouble is that messes up the dialogue sometimes.

Thanks Chris, and don't forget the prostate commercials..how could you? Seeto-Sito-Sterol Turns out it was AT&T U-verse a couple of the old timers found issue with...H&I is not even available as upgrade option. Something to do with sub-channel availability and I gather not the same in all areas. I'll steer 'em to youtube where possible.
