Lydia joins me to discuss this short lived Michael Landon written and produced television show.

“John Murphy leads a struggle against a mining boss causing some children to be orphaned. Assuming responsibility, he poses as a priest to circumvent authorities. He and schoolteacher Mae struggle to provide everyday needs for two dozen children.”

The Pilot for Father Murphy originally aired on November 3, 1981

Special Thanks to John Mapes Music for allowing me to use his excellent cover song in the episode!
