Thanks for the newspaper clipping.......but now the mystery deepens cos there is no such show dated Nov 16tth 1975 that aired or exists.

The infos do not jive ....cos the article says it was from an upcoming D&M show dated Nov 16th , 1975......but....the Donny Marie season 1 pilot episode and the series only started on Jan 23rd 1976.....there was no D&M shows in 1975. The series fan for 4 seasons starting in Jan 1976 and ending in 1978.

Marie only had long hair in season 1 in 1976, for the other seasons she had short bobbed hair. I have seen every episode from all 4 seasons and no such shark scene exists in any of the regular season episodes.

As you can see from Donny's bio....no such tv special aired in November 1975.

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005287/?ref_=tt_cl_t2

So....all we know is....the scene was shot and exists, cos we have the photo and news article, but no such scene or show was aired during the D&M series. There were no D&M shows in 1975, they only started in Jan of 1976.

This can only mean one thing.....an unaired pilot episode was made in and possibly aired in November of 1975....before the regular series started in Jan of 1976.

IMDB does not give us any data on this unaired pilot.....but then IMDB often excludes infos on unsold or unaired pilots.

Note to MK about Marie Osmond

I think I found what you were looking for with your picture with Marie Osmond in the swimming pool with Donny. It came from a newspaper article from a Florida newspaper. I am not a member of Twitter or I would have responded to you that way. Hopefully, this will work just as well for you.

The link is here: http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1356&dat=19751029&id=HaNPAAAAIBAJ&sjid=9QUEAAAAIBAJ&pg=1727,5726537

If the link doesn't work, the article says the picture is taken from an upcoming special of the Donny & Marie show on November 16th of 1975. The newspaper is from Ocala Florida called the Star-Banner, dated October 29, 1975.

Good Luck.
