Roll Out (1973-1974)

EndedScripted showComedy

In an attempt to cash-in on the success of M*A*S*H, this rarely funny sitcom was stuck into the line-up. Loosely based upon the film "Red Ball Express"(1952) and set during WWII, Roll Out attempted to comment on race relations the way M*A*S*H was commenting on Vietnam.
