  • Room 222 Where Is It Written? Episode aired Jan 14, 1972
    *Liz McIntyre has two students needing guidance. Craig feels unable to live up to his family's academic achievements and become a minister while Judy acts out in anger over her home life. A chance meeting cutting class helps both of them.
    Room 222 is an American comedy-drama television series produced by 20th Century Fox Television that aired on ABC for 112 episodes, from September 17, 1969, until January 11, 1974. The show was broadcast on Wednesday evenings at 8:30 (EST) for its first two seasons, before settling into its best-remembered time slot of Friday evenings at 9:00, following The Brady Bunch and The Partridge Family, and preceding The Odd Couple and Love, American Style.
    The series mainly focused on an American history class in Room 222 of the fictional Walt Whitman High School, an extremely racially diverse school in Los Angeles, California, although it also depicted other events at and outside the school, such as the home lives of students and faculty. The class is taught by Pete Dixon (Lloyd Haynes), an idealistic African-American school teacher. Other characters featured in the show were the school's compassionate guidance counselor, Liz McIntyre (Denise Nicholas), who is also Pete's girlfriend; the dryly humorous school principal, Seymour Kaufman (Michael Constantine); and the petite and enthusiastic Alice Johnson (Karen Valentine), a student teacher (and later full-time teacher) whom Pete mentors. Patsy Garrett played Mr. Kaufman's secretary, Miss Hogarth. In addition, many recurring students were featured from episode to episode.
    Pete Dixon delivers gentle lessons in tolerance and understanding to his students. They admire his wisdom, insight, and easygoing manner. The themes of the episodes were sometimes topical, reflecting the contemporary political climate of the late 1960s and early to mid-1970s, such as the Vietnam War, women's rights, race relations, and Watergate. However, most plots were timeless and featured themes still common to modern-day teenagers. For example, the 1969 episode "Funny Boy" deals with a class clown who is self-conscious about being overweight, the 1971 episode "What Is a Man?" deals with a student who is mistakenly the victim of anti-gay harassment and the 1974 episode "I Didn't Raise My Girl to Be a Soldier" with parent-teenager issues.

    When I was growing up, Fridays were date nights for my parents. This was part of my Friday night lineup. I would watch The Brady Bunch, Partridge Family, Room 222, skipped The Odd Couple, then watched Love American Style. Great memories of good times. Thanks for bringing it all back.

    For some really strange reason... I enjoyed watching this although it felt different watching something that came out exactly 18 years before I was born!
    So many things to love from this:
    1. Aretha Franklin made this so wonderful when she performed 'Guard Me Oh Lord!
    2.The words of wisdom from Miss McIntyre
    3.The conversation between Crazy Judy and Dumb Craig.(It's always refreshing to find someone who takes the time to understand you before they judge something everyone easily does.)
    Best 22 minutes of my time used today.Thank you!

    I remember being a kid in the 70s and how "cool" it was to love Jesus, to interact and have "rap sessions" with teachers, and so forth. I look at how things are now and wish I could go back in a time machine.

    "You can't go to college but your math scores were good so I recommend computer technology" LOL - What a step down!

      Nowadays, kids, especially guys, are saying "sayonara" to college and opting for where the real money is to be earned.

    @The Ret' Network hopefully I won't be the only one that noticed actor John David Carson, who just months earlier had played a student character named Ponce de Leon Harper in the cinematic feature "Pretty Maids All In A Row", with Rock Hudson, Telly Savalas & Angie Dickinson. The final movie role Carson had of note was a bit part with Richard Gere in "Pretty Woman". R.I.P. John David Carson.

    This show has been sadly neglected by the so called “nostalgia networks”. It was a launch pad for James L. Brooks and Gene Reynolds…and that’s just the production staff.
