It aired from November 11 to December 30, 1976.[1][2][3] Cast
SynopsisIn the 1940s, Jim Malloy returns to his home town, the fictional small mining town of Gibbsville, Pennsylvania, after being expelled from Yale University during his sophomore year. He becomes a young cub reporter for the town{{'}}s newspaper, the Gibbsville Courier. He works there with a senior reporter, Ray Whitehead, who had begun his career in journalism with the Courier and left Gibbsville to pursue a promising career with more prestigious newspapers in larger cities. However, alcoholism had made Ray{{'}}s career falter, and he had returned to Gibbsville and the Courier to try to make a fresh start. Mr. Pell is the editor of the Courier and is Jim{{'}}s and Ray{{'}}s boss.[1][2] Jim lives in Gibbsville with his parents, Dr. Mike Malloy and Mrs. Malloy. Dr. Malloy is the town{{'}}s physician.[1][2] ProductionDavid Gerber was Gibbsville{{'}}s executive producer.[1] The stories and characters in the show were based on the writings of John O'Hara[1][2] about the fictional Gibbsville (itself based closely on the real-life town of Pottsville, Pennsylvania), and in its opening credits the show refers to itself as "John O{{'}}Hara{{'}}s Gibbsville." In addition to a 1975 television movie written and directed by playwright Frank D. Gilroy that served as the show{{'}}s pilot, thirteen episodes were produced, although only six of them aired.[1] Broadcast historyA 90-minute television movie, John O{{'}}Hara{{'}}s Gibbsville – later retitled The Turning Point of Jim Malloy and alternatively titled Gibbsville: The Turning Point of Jim Malloy – aired on NBC on April 12, 1975. Based on the John O'Hara semi-autobiographical story anthology The Doctor{{'}}s Son, it served as the pilot for Gibbsville. Several delays followed in getting the weekly series on the air. Gibbsville finally was to have premiered at the beginning of NBC{{'}}s fall 1976 season, but it encountered one last delay when it was displaced at the last minute. After the cancellation of the series Gemini Man, NBC reshuffled its Thursday evening lineup and added Gibbsville to the schedule in mid-November 1976.[1][4] Gibbsville finally premiered as a weekly series on November 11, 1976 – 17 months after its pilot aired – and NBC broadcast it at 10:00 p.m. on Thursdays throughout its brief run. Its sixth episode was broadcast on December 30, 1976, after which NBC cancelled it.[1][2] The remaining seven episodes never aired.[3]EpisodesSources[3][4][5]
