PROGRAM PROFILE:
The Sixth Sense
Saturday night 10:00 / ABC

Gary Collins starred as Dr. Michael Rhodes, college professor with a fascination for the paranormal.

Acclaimed science fiction author Harlan Ellison was a story editor for the first season. When the show returned for one last season, Dr. Rhodes was suddenly using his powers of ESP and becoming more super-heroic while the plots became more incredible in an utterly unsuccessful attempt to attract a wider audience.

Screen legend Joan Crawford played her last television role in the September 30th episode of The Sixth Sense, "Dear Joan, We're Going To Scare You To Death." Gary Collins went on to host PM Magazine.

Episodes of Sixth Sense were added to the Night Gallery syndication package during the 1970s & 1980s.
