27. ‘Barbary Coast’

Doug McClure and William Shatner star in the short-lived 1975 series Barbary Coast, seen here in the episode “Arson and Old Lace,” which aired November 14, 1975. Set in post–Civil War San Francisco, the show cast Shatner as government agent Jeff Cable, a master of disguises who partnered with McClure’s saloon owner to battle crime. Despite elaborate costumes and spy-fi flair, the series struggled with tone and ratings, lasting just one season. Still, it remains a fascinating detour in Shatner’s pre-Star Trek: The Motion Picture years.
