ABCs attempt to attract the teenage market was this offbeat
soap entry which had guest stars like Marvin Gaye, Johnny
Rivers, and the Ramsey Lewis Trio stop by occasionally to
sing at the local cafe hangout. The adolescents who starred
included Chet, a race car driver who dated other girls to
make his steady girl, Joy, jealous;
Tad, a football player who
faced a career-threatening injury; and Barbara, who upset
her boyfriend Alfie by her meddlesome efforts to help him
further his ambitions. Frank and Rhoda, the prime adults
involved in the group, had their own unsteady relationship.
The stories were supposed to take place in Malibu, but a
Hollywood studio lot filled with sand provided what beach
atmosphere there was.
