The One Season Show

Jess and Chris begin their monthly journey into the weird world of single seasons TV shows with the pilot episode of 1987's Werewolf, one of the shows that aired during FOX's inaugural season. The show, created by industry stalwart Frank Lupo, centers on Eric Cord, played by John J. York, as he hunts down the progenitor of the werewolf curse he's become afflicted with. That only problem is that the leader of the bloodline is the unhinged Janos Skorzeny, played with scene-chewing aplomb in his final screen role by Chuck Connors. The show has hints of The Fugitive and The Incredible Hulk along with the supernatural elements of The Night Stalker. On this episode of the One Season Show, Jess and Chris discuss the feature-length pilot of the show including the fantastic practical effects, the immortal Chuck Connors, and the perfectly quaffed hair of the dreamy lead. You can follow Jess @writerjessbyard, Chris @casualty_chris, and the show @oneseasonshow along with a big thanks to Curtain Peepers for their song "Who's Lovin Me."
