I remember Airwolf was on in 1985 and a spy thriller on CBS Cover-Up starring the late Jon-Erik Hexum, Jenifer O'Neil, Richard Anderson and after Hexum's death Antony Hamilton. They were on Saturday nights.

-The 'Love Boat' on at 9pm est followed by 'Fantasy Island' at 10pm was my favorite for years as a kid. I forgot the Love Boat lasted 3 or 4 seasons longer.
