Professor Howard Bannister:
You've changed, Claudia. You used to be so...frumpy.
Claudia: That's right, Howard, I have changed. From now on, I'm going to greet you at the door with a drink in my hand, wearing something slinky. It may make me violently ill, but I'm going to do it.

ABC-TV tried turning the hit 1972 comedy "What's Up, Doc?" into a 30-minute TV sitcom, but only the pilot was ever shown (or, in fact, filmed). If I recall, it was aired on a Friday or Saturday night at 8pm. It featured none of the star-power which infused the movie, however Barry Van Dyke acquitted himself admirably in Ryan O'Neal's role of Howard Bannister. The action begins with Howard and Judy in the airplane above Iowa, pretty much where the movie left off, but instead of bringing Eunice Burns back, it turns out Howard has yet another old-flame to complicate matters for new-flame Judy. Great pains were taken to match the costumes and character attributes to the movie version, but the script was lacking. It was filmed on interesting locations (or maybe a studio backlot) with a laugh-track, but apparently no one had any faith in this forgotten attempt at TV screwball--and the negative must now be a dusty relic somewhere in a bin in Hollywood. Too bad for Barry, he gave it a honorable try...
