It fizzled after a season and was retooled into “Saved by the Bell,” retaining a few main characters and becoming a success in a new setting. Bobrick was also a staff writer for “The Andy Griffith Show” and wrote for a number of other classic TV shows, including “Captain Kangaroo,” “Bewitched,” and “The Flintstones.” He was Emmy-nominated for his writing on “The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour,” and he won three Writers Guild of America awards for his television writing.Showing 1 - 1 of 1 ResultsBrowse articles by tagPlanning ResourcesSympathy AdviceHonoringGriefOffer Sympathy and SupportHelp with Grief and LossHonoring a Life
