The Yellow Rose
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Yellow Rose was an American television series that was broadcast on the NBC network during the 1983-1984 season.
The series was at least partly inspired by the more coltish elements of the smash hit soap opera Dallas, and dealt with the intrigues of the Texas-based ranch-owning Champion family. The show also boasted a strong cast that included Sam Elliott, David Soul, Edward Albert, Cybill Shepherd, Chuck Connors, and Jane Russell.
However, The Yellow Rose failed to capture the public imagination and was cancelled after one season of twenty-two episodes.
In early 1990, the TV series, "The Yellow Rose," was revived again on CBS-TV, albeit a short run.
[edit] Theme song
The show's theme song, "The Yellow Rose," was recorded by country singers Johnny Lee and Lane Brody. The song became a No. 1 hit on Billboard magazine's Hot Country Singles chart on April 21, 1984.
