Ryan (TV series)

''Ryan'' was an Australian adventure television series screened by the Seven Network from 27 May 1973. The series was produced by Crawford Productions and had a run of 39 one hour episodes. 〔Moran, Albert. ''Moran's Guide to Australian TV Series'', Allen & Unwin, 1993. ISBN 0-642-18462-3 p 398〕
==Program Synopsis ==
The title character was a dashing private investigator played by Rod Mullinar. (A few years prior Mullinar had briefly taken the lead role in the similar Crawfords series ''Hunter'' (1967) in its closing episodes after the original lead actor Tony Ward left the show.) Ryan's assistant was played by New Zealand-born actor Pamela Stephenson, soon to leave for England and a successful television career. 〔 Other regular characters were Tony Angelini (Luigi Villani), a taxi driver and Ryan's regular informant, while Detective Cullen (Colin McEwan) was Ryan’s main liaison with the police force.〔Storey, Don. ''TV Eye - Classic Australian Television'', (TV Eye - Classic Australian Television )〕
''Ryan'' was shot entirely on film and in colour with an eye to potential international sales. An initial sale of 39 episodes to the Seven Network recouped only 55% of the series' relatively high production costs. An international sale was therefore crucial to the show's continued feasibility.〔
Australian television was still broadcasting in black and white in 1973, while key international markets broadcast in colour and would more readily purchase a colour series. Though many Australian series shot their interior scenes on videotape in the studio using a multiple-camera setup with only outdoor scenes shot on film, because Australia was yet to switch to colour television the television studios were not yet equipped with colour equipment. This meant ''Ryan'' had to be shot entirely on film. In another concession to international marketability Mullinar was instructed to play the role using a Mid-Atlantic American accent.〔
The series premiered in May 1973, rating well in Brisbane and Adelaide, but failing in the crucial Melbourne and Sydney markets. A key reason for low ratings was the fact that the Nine Network had moved the highly popular police drama ''Division 4'' to a new night to compete with the much-hyped new series. ''Ryan'' was moved around the schedules in order to find an audience, but ratings remained mediocre. After the initial 39 episodes were in the can the ''Ryan'' crew were, in expectation of a second series, retained by Crawfords and put to work on ''Homicide'' - whose output was increased to two episodes a week - on that show's second weekly episode. This resulted in one cross-over episode, with the ''Ryan'' regular characters appearing in an episode of ''Homicide''. One regular cast member, Pamela Stephenson, did not appear, having opted to leave the series during the recess.〔
Ultimately ''Ryan'' was not renewed by the Seven Network due to insufficient ratings.〔 The ''Homicide'' production reverted to one episode a week. While some of the ''Ryan'' crew were rolled into new Crawfords serial ''The Box'', that show featured little outdoors filming so inevitably some of the ''Ryan'' crew were retrenched - the first time Crawfords had ever retrenched staff.〔
