Following an initial pilot episode in January 1976, it ran for two subsequent series of five and three episodes in October 1977 and October 1979 respectively.

Ratings
Pop Score weighs critics and audiences equally, and trusts each source in proportion to how many votes or reviews back it.
Critic scores for a series usually cover its first season, so long-running shows can look further from their audiences than they are.
