This was the series that launched Burt Reynolds’ astounding career. “Dan August” was one of the many great Quinn Martin produced shows that came out during the early 1970′s. Its a crying shame that “Dan August” the TV series is not available on DVD…It should be!!!! Along with another great QM Produced show as well “The FBI”. “August” ran for one season on ABC from 1970 until 1971 and only 26 episodes were made in full color in the traditional QM Format!
What a thrill to see excerpts of an episode from this series here. “Dan August” – another fabulous QM Production, can’t believe it’s not on home video (they’re waiting on Reynolds to die so they won’t have to share the royalites), would love to work something out with you, Recordman, to get copies of the ones you have in your collection to enjoy in mine as well. How about it? This is the first Dan August sighting I’ve had in since the show went off the air for good. Shameful that it’s not on DVD
My favorite episode of the show, but I have yet to get it on VHS or DVD (I have four other eps on VHS). Of course, this clip features the infamous ‘flying tackle’ that seems to be a part of every Dan August episode.
Thanks for sharing alpheratz9 . And by the way, I’m jealous. Think you’ve got your hands on a nicer copy of this, than I have. Didn’t realize it was Burt Reynolds who played with him in this though for some reason.
Stringfellow Hawke circa 1971.
Do you if Dan August is available on DVD?
And Mr. Vincent was on “Danger Island” two years prior.
Does anybody know where i can find
87th Precinct, Dan August, Hawk & T.H.E. CAT vids ? They look so cool
Didn’t Mr. Reynolds also do a show before this one called, “Hawk”?
