Episode 47: ISIS - "Seeing Eye Horse"

Isis "Seeing Eye Horse" September 11, 1976

Noah is a teenager who has been recently struck blind.  His
passion, riding horses, seems to be elusive to him, but Andrea
and Rennie are determined to change that attitude by introducing
Noah to a seeing eye horse.  Just how resourceful is this
horse when Noah finds himself in trouble and his ranch in danger
of burning down?


Our look at the first episode of the second and final season
of The Secrets of Isis is met with a mix of feelings
between John and Richard.  One of the two is not impressed
at all with what he's seeing, while the other acknowledges that
there are issues with the episode, but feels the message is
important and relevant today, making it a better episode.
 The two discuss the revamped theme song, the Viewmaster
reels that were developed from this story, the weak introduction
of Ronalda Douglas as Rennie Carol, Isis' new hairdo, and the
trope of heroic blind people in 70s television.  Plus, just
how familiar is that ranch house in this episode to John?


It's all here and we want to hear from you on what you think of
the episode.  Write us as ShazamIsisPodcast@gmail.com.
