Clip of Season Hubley on The Partridge Family

Here's a clip of a very young Season Hubley in one her first roles, as featured guest star on an episode of The Partridge Family. In the episode 'The Princess and the Partridge', Season Hubley plays a princess who happens to be visiting San Pueblo, the town where the Partridges live. This scene depicts Keith Partridge (David Cassidy) on a date at the drive-in with the princess. Things are fine until the paparazzi show up!

Season Hubley stars in Blue Skies

In the summer of 1988, Season Hubley co-starred alongside Tom Wopat and Pat Hingle in a television series called Blue Skies. The hour-long CBS drama, about urban professionals from San Francisco who move to small town in Oregon, only lasted 8 episodes. The show was featured as a mid-season replacement but did not end up getting good enough ratings to become a proper series. Blue Skies was Season Hubley's first real attempt at being part of a regular TV series cast (she had focused mostly on guest roles in the past) and it's a shame that it didn't work out better for her.

Season Hubley in London and Davis in New York

Season Hubley and Richard Crenna are London and Davis

In 1984, Season Hubley co-starred alongside Richard Crenna in London and Davis in New York, a pilot for a proposed TV series. The series didn't end up getting made, which is a shame because it sounds like it would have been a fun show. It would have also been nice to see Season Hubley have her own weekly series in the 1980s, an endeavor which she didn't have much luck with in that decade. In 1988, Season Hubley was cast in another hour-long series called Blue Skies, but that show was cancelled after only 8 episodes had aired.

I haven't seen London and Davis in New York and I don't know whether it is even out there to be seen. If it turns up some day I'd love to see it. One item related to the show that does exist is Chuck Mangione's excellent 'Love Theme from London and Davis in New York'. A very '80s piece of music for what I'm sure was a very '80s show!

Apparently, Season Hubley was not the first choice for the role of Claudia London in London and Davis in New York. Early press for the project indicated that Farrah Fawcett was the actress who was originally wanted for the part, but that fell through. Blair Brown was then slated for the part but somewhere between the announcement of her involvement and the making of the pilot, Season Hubley came into the picture.

Clip of Season Hubley in Loose Change

Here's a clip of Season Hubley in Loose Change, a miniseries she did in 1978 which co-starred Cristina Raines and Laurie Heineman. This clip is from the first section of the three part miniseries and takes place when the main characters are still in college. In this scene, Tanya Berenson (Season Hubley's character) has a chat with her father while she's home for Christmas.

Season Hubley stars in 'Visions' drama

In late 1977, Season Hubley made her final TV show guest appearance of the decade on an anthology series called Visions. After this featured television role, Season Hubley turned her attention towards other projects, such as the miniseries Loose Change, playing Priscilla Presley in the 1979 movie Elvis, as well as her second feature film, Hardcore. Season Hubley had made a name for herself in the 1970s doing TV movies and with guest appearances on various TV series such as The Partridge Family, Kung Fu and Family. After her appearance on Visions in 1977, she would not do another guest shot on a series until 1985.


The following newspaper article is a rather lengthy description of Season Hubley's Visions episode, titled 'All I Could See From Where I Stood':
