I wanted to enjoy this film because the idea of walking to the ocean was enticing and I'm an old lady. Unfortunately, other the unlikeable principle characters, the issues which continuity were driving me crazy. Obviously no one on the production staff has ever used a backpack, hiked or camped. I was actually relieved when someone gave her bear spray. I would lay odds that there was no bear proof can far from the campsite. The pack was poorly fit and there was no way, among other things, that big cooking pot would fit. Unfortunately once I started seeing all the mistakes I stopped caring about the characters and the story.

I just barely remember this show but I do remember I loved it. Four young men living on a houseboat somewhere in New England, two of them brothers. The two other characters were Tom Tom and Vern. Tom Tom (Ted Bessell), read poetry in the cemetery. I remember Vern saying, "Shoot that's the best thing since seedless grapes" or sliced bread, or something like that. I was very disappointed when it went off the air, though sometime later Bessell ended up on "That Girl' and Corbett replaced George Maharis on "Route 66" for a while and even showed up as the original Zephram Cochran on Star Trek. It was a nice story. And if I can remember a short-lived show 40 years after it went off the air, it made an impression.
