Seventeen Seventy Five is a 1992 pilot episode for a CBS situation comedy. Set in colonial Philadelphia during the run-up to the American Revolution, the series was to follow the exploits of innkeeper Jeremy Proctor and his family. The series was not picked up by CBS, but was broadcast as a special presentation once September 5, 1992. [1] [2] [3]

A similar idea for a situation comedy was mentioned by Andrew Alexander in a commentary track for SCTV.[ citation needed]

Plot

Innkeeper Jeremy Proctor needs funds to send his daughters to a ball (which will hopefully lead to marrying one of them off). He thus tries to borrow the money from his brother-in-law, George Washington, but to no avail. [4]
