Wiki.

Kodiak is a half-hour adventure program that aired Friday evenings at 8:00 p.m Eastern time on ABC during the 1974-1975 television season. The show filled the time spot left vacant by ABC's cancellation of The Brady Bunch.

The show revolved around the main character of Cal "Kodiak" McKay (Clint Walker), an Alaska State Trooper. Kodiak, always accompanied by his Eskimo sidekick Abraham Lincoln Imhook (Abner Biberman), used his four-wheel drive truck to track down desperate killers through 50,000 miles of Alaska backcountry.

The show received unfavorable reviews from critics like The New York Times John J. O'Connor who called it a "disaster" and wrote:

"This disaster, starring Clint Walker, is filmed in Alaska, where Kodiak is a member of the State Patrol. The opening espisode has something to do with the theft of ”an 80 grand payroll.” There is much howling wind and spraying snow. Mr. Walker's frozen method of acting effectively complements the setting. The result is about as interesting as watching a large block of polluted ice."

It suffered low ratings due to being scheduled opposite NBC's mega-hit Sanford and Son. Kodiak was cancelled after the first episode, although a total of six episodes were aired. The show was filmed in Bend, Oregon, using the Old Skyliners Ski Lodge as the primary meeting place.

Maggie Blye had the role of police radio dispatcher Mandy.

The program was created by Stan Shpetner and Anthony Lawrence; Shpetner was the producer.
