  3. Grizzly Adams

Grizzly Adams, played by Dan Haggarty, was the story of an American mountain man, who, along with his bear Ben, had numerous adventures in the American wilderness. The stories often involved unscrupulous business men, harming the natural environment and threatening Grizzlies way of life.

Grizzly Adams could read the signs and thoughts of the animals and birds that shared his mountain and they would often assist him in "saving the day".

    Yes you're right; I think Grizzly had to scarper because of being falsely accused of some crime or other (I think he was loosely based on a real character/true story if memory serves me right)... I loved the show as a kid, it coincided with my grandparents getting a colour TV -and since we visited every second Saturday I got to see all that breathtaking scenery in colour (well half the time -lol!)... I think the show turned a lot of us on to caring about animals and the great outdoors - I loved the show, and the theme tune was one of the first songs I ever taught myself when I began learning the guitar... 'Deep inside the forest...' and all that -lol! Thanks everyone for the walk down memory lane (or in this case; up memory mountain :-) PS Didn't you just want a bear as a pet after seeing the show? Best wishes, Brett Huckfield

    I agree completely, it was one of my favourite programmes. I even bought a book at the time, called 'Survival for Kids', which taught you everything you need to survive in the wild forest (or a camping trip!)

    Probably the main reason for my love of the great outdoors, good storylines (to start with anyway) great characters, and utterly stunning backdrops. Excellent TV.
