I was researching director Leslie Martinson because I really liked his directing in an episode of Run For Your Life, came across Hank in a list of his directing credits and immediately remembered it.I enjoyed this show a lot as a kid (3rd grade).
I saw Dick Kallman in Chicago starring in a road production of How to Succeed In Business Without Really Trying as Finch (Spring 1964) & was thrilled to be able to see him on his weekly sitcom. Although a 1-season wonder Hank did a great series finale.
Jason Stuart makes 100 % of every second of his on screen time portraying the earnest, lovelorn Hank. Anyone who has ever compromised for love will recognize that look of searching for something that isn't there in their partner.
Jason Stuart shines in this short film! I was so moved by his performance.
Greetings again from the darkness. Every relationship has its own dynamics, but few are more challenging than the stark reality of an "open" relationship.
I wish that Richard Kallman were better remembered as an artist than for this short-lived television series which didn't quite last a year. He was cast as the title character named Hank who in addition to supporting younger siblings with various endeavors was gaining a college education for free.
I remember this show well from my childhood, along with the other TV sitcom Camp Runamuck. I was in 5th grade when this show came out and watched every episode.
This show had a lot going for it. Kelsey Grammar is a sitcom legend and the writer was Tucker Cawley who wrote many of my favourite Everybody Loves Raymond episodes.
I also watched this show when I was a kid. I remember only the last line of the theme "He'll get his degree, his phi beta key, and get them both for free, that's Hank!
