Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
George is a Swiss-Canadian television series which aired on CTV on Thursday evenings in 1972–73. The series was based on the 1972 film George!, about the adventures of a St. Bernard dog and his owner who live in Switzerland. Marshall Thompson starred in both the film and the resulting half-hour series. The series made its CTV debut in a Thursday evening time slot on 16 September 1972. However, George ended in 1973 after its only season. The Globe and Mail's Blaik Kirby considered the program to be "abysmal". Despite its short run and mixed critical reaction, much like the situation with the television series The Trouble with Tracy, the series was rerun on CTV affiliates for years afterwards, usually to fill Saturday morning schedules.
