5.0 out of 5 stars
"The Final Year", April 24 2011
By Terry Richard "Terry Richard" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: McMillan & Wife: Season 6 (DVD)
When "McMillan & Wife" ended at the end of season 5 in 1976 Susan Saint James and the show's producers got into some tough negotiations regarding money. Instead of giving her what she wanted the producers, along with NBC, decided to fire Saint James and write the character out by killing Sally and her child in a plane crash. So, the producers were stuck trying to pull a show together without one of its leads. The series became titled "McMillan" and lasted one paltry season and was cancelled due to terrible ratings. To make matters worse Nancy Walker, who was fantastic as Mildred, was replaced as McMillan's housekeeper by Martha Raye. The show simply lost its way or as they say in the television industry "jumped the shark".The following is a list of all 6 telefilms of "McMillan" (90 minutes in length)along with their airdates. There are also no bonus features.
1. "All Bets Off", Dec. 5, 1976
2. "Dark Sunrise", Jan. 2, 1977
3. "Phillip's Game", Jan. 23, 1977
4. "Coffee, Tea, or Cyanide", Jan. 30, 1977
5. "Affair of the Heart", March 20, 1977
6. "Have You Heard About Vanessa?", April. 24, 1977

Irony Hits Real Life!, July 23 2011
By Perry R. Johnson "Perry R. Johnson" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: McMillan & Wife: Season 6 (DVD)
As a child, I remember how disappointed I was that Susan Saint James was not on the final season of McMillan. The onscreen chemistry of Hudson and St. James was what made the show. Now, since Rock Hudson has become a legend, I will buy this final season because it is a part of his works. I hope I will be better entertained watching this now then I did as a small child, when it was originally broadcast. Ironically, Sally and her son were killed in a plane crash. In real life, Susan St. James lost her son in a plane crash and nearly her husband. It is a sad case how irony from actor's t.v. or movie performances, reflect their own lives later. In memory of Rock Hudson and Susan St. James, we love you.

This review is from: McMillan & Wife: Season 6 (DVD)
i always got the ahhh feeling from this show. i had heard he was gay my whole life. yes, even back in the 70's when the show was on, but i didn't care.he was hot and she was adorable and i always wanted this kind of marriage.i didn't know until recently that it was based on the thin man movies. those are worth a watch also.the relationship between the sergeant and the commissioner was priceless...and i adored Mildred.
Listmania!
