Julie was too special a talent for a weekly TV show. I was a kid when these first aired and it was like what they called a "special" every week...extravagant production values, brilliant talent...I adored her then, and I will always adore her!!!
I was disappointed when ABC cancelled the "Julie Andrews Hour", but I wasn't really shocked or surprised; TV variety series were losing favor with viewers, and JA was reportedly tired of doing the series and wanted to get back to starring in films.
