Firehouse is a half-hour American drama/adventure series that aired on ABC. A mid-season replacement, it started airing on January 17, 1974, and was cancelled after its 13-episode run.[1] The series ran on Thursdays from 8:30 to 9:00 p.m., with the last rerun episode aired on August 1, 1974.[2] The series starred James Drury as Captain Spike Ryerson.

Pilot movie

The series pilot was broadcast in 1973 on the ABC Movie of the Week and starred Richard Roundtree and Richard Jaeckel. The pilot concerned a formerly all-white firehouse learning to accept a black rookie firefighter.[3] All racial difficulties were dropped from the series.[4]

Richard Jaeckel was the only actor to appear in both the pilot movie and the series.[3][2]

Cast

Synopsis

Capt. Spike Ryerson acted as a father-figure to the young firefighters[2] of Engine Company Number 23, of the Los Angeles Fire Department.[4] Each episode had two stories, a fire to fight, and a rescue. Because of the 30 minute length there was not time to give depth to the characters, develop friendships, or discus family life.[5]
