Series Description:

TOWER PLAYHOUSE, directed by Jim French in Seattle, Washington, was
the forerunner of CRISIS, also directed by Jim French.  Although a
short series, some unusual science fiction and horror tales are among
the titles.  None of these 30-minute shows were repeated in CRISIS.
The first CRISIS show was not aired until November 22, 1973, over a
year after the last TOWER PLAYHOUSE show.

It appears that the main run was only 9 shows with one special on
Halloween.
