(see this users gallery) Here Come The Brides aired from September 1968 until September 1970 on ABC.
Comedy-adventure set in boomtown Seattle - population 152 - in the 1870's.
Logging camp operator Jason Bolt ( Robert Brown ) , and his young brothers Jeremy and Joshua ( Bobby Sherman, David Soul), were in danger of losing their forest, at Bridal Veil Mountain, because their men were in an uproar over the lack of women in Seattle. Jason came up with an ingenious plan. Using funds borrowed from rival sawmill operator Aaron Stempel( Mark Lenard), he traveled back to New Bedford, Massachusetts, and persuaded 100 prospective brides to return with him to the frontier. The women, led by Candy Pruitt( Bridget Hanley), returned with Jason aboard Capt. Clancey's( Henry Beckman's) decrepit ship . But, there was a catch - if any of the 100 women left before a year was up, Jason would forfeit his land to Stempel. It was some year, but Jason won his wager.
Bobby Sherman and David Soul were both looked on as promising young singers when the series was cast. Boosted by exposure on the show, Sherman went on to become a highly successful recording star beginning in 1969 and ending up appearing on several other TV show as well.
David Soul, who had his first TV exposure as the hooded "mystery singer" on The Merv Griffin Show from 1966-1967, later became Hutch on the extremely popular series Starsky And Hutch. He also married (in real life) one of the "brides" he met on the series, actress Karen Carlson.
