Series Description

The Eleventh Hour TV show was a 60 minute drama series on NBC about a young psychologist who was extremely sympathetic with his patients. He worked under the guidance of two experienced psychiatrists. The first episodes concentrated mostly on legal trials involving Dr. Theodore Bassett (played by Wendall Corey) as an advisor to the Department of Corrections and then the series plotline began to emphasize the private practice of Dr. Paul Graham under the guidance of Dr. L. Richard Starke (played by Ralph Bellamy) helping people who were mostly on the verge of losing their minds.

Eleventh Hour Trivia

If you never saw him on the Eleventh Hour, you might still remember Jack Ging from his role as Lieutenant Ted Quinlan on the series, "Riptide".

Jack also played the character, "Bull Fullbright" on several episodes of, "The A-Team". That character was the only major character that ever got killed off on the A-Team.

The Eleventh Hour crossed-over with another TV series about a mature teacher guiding a young prodigy titled, "Dr. Kildare". The episode titles were, "Four Feet in the Morning". Part 1 aired on Dr. Kildare on November 21, 1963 and part 2 was broadcast six days later on the 27th.

In an unusual move, the plots of the episodes concentrated more heavily on the patients than on the stars' characters. That's not surprising when you consider the amazing list of guest stars who appeared on Eleventh Hour! The scripts were terrific and that makes fine actors want to participate. Just a partial list of those who appeared during just the first season include Eddie Albert, Ed Asner, Frankie Avalon, Bill Bixby, Veronica Cartwright, Linda Evans, Anne Francis, David Janssen, Angela Lansbury, Walter Matthau, Burgess Meredith, Vera Miles, Carroll O'Connor, Cliff Robertson, Kurt Russell, Telly Savalas, George C. Scott, Robert Vaughn and Tuesday Weld among others!
