California Fever

Outside of featuring an actor from "Kids from C.A.P.E.R.", Cosie Costa, I don't know why I chose to watch this, but I was fifteen and not as hip as you, I guess.

The leads had a band in this episode. While riding in their car the quartet decides to call themselves "Four on the Floor". Their song had lyrics that seemed only to repeat the phrase, "Are you satisfied? Satisfied!"

In any case, there is a rival band called "Rest Room", an instrumental band who are not only awful, but with a name like that, we are obviously meant to dislike. Why else would a band call itself "Rest Room"? For that matter, the title of the series is rather vague, too. It seems that it was named only to make for snappy ad copy("Catch California Fever on CBS!"). Late but not lamented.

McNichol was better served in "Soap".

Best I can remember, I liked this show. But I was a silly 14 yr old girl with typical crushes. I loved the cars and the beaches. I enjoyed skating back then and thought that was the best, to get to skate all the time like that. Where I lived at we all met up at the skating rink. I thought one day I'd like to go to California until I found out they had earth quakes and forest fires. But I do remember enjoying the sites of the beach and I thought they must have the best life ever. I did wonder why they never went home? Why their parents wasn't ever looking for them? I'm just sorry all the actors dropped off the face of the earth, more or less I hope the actors are living their best life now. Wouldn't mind watching the episodes again for old times sake.

Although this show was short lived and a very long time ago now, I remember it like yesterday. Probably because at the time "California Fever" was on the air my father had a 1970 Trans Am. Not even close to being as cool as the one in the show driven by Jimmy McNichol. But what I am wondering is.. whatever happened to Jimmy's TA after the show ended? I've searched the web for images of the car but there really aren't any. Just promo shots of the gang posing around the car and not much of it in frame. I have also been researching google and following leads but there isn't any information about the show's super cool Trans Am. I loved the paint job. Please let me know if you have any information.

California beaver would have been better title for this vapid series

I finally found someone else who saw this show. No one I ever ask has any idea what I'm talking about. I have never even heard of this show coming up during a trivia game.

I was only about 7 or 8 at the time it aired, so I remember very little. I knew it was about a bunch of teens on a California beach, southern California I later assumed, but was never sure.

I do recall part of the theme song, "California here I am and I love you. I've got the fever for you!" I just remember that being sung over and over again. I still remember the tune of the theme song.

It is good to know that a few careers seem to have been started with this show however brief it was with way less than one season.
