Good movie but grossly overrated

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

I loved Run Joe Run! It's a little hard to remember all the details but I remember always rooting for Joe's owner to catch Joe so he could clear Joe's name & be reunified again. Alas, it never happened & we never even got a closing final episode to tie up the loose ends and...no spin off or movies were ever made. Poor Joe is still running wild out there, with many villains out to get him with his only real friend searching in vain! Come Home Joe, Come Home! :)OK, I need to write more lines before I can submit so...I think Joe was written during the sad story line days of the mid 70's. There were so many tearjerking songs written then...remember "Wild Fire" (horse), "Shannon" (dog), "Seasons in the Sun" (guy dying), "Rocky" (girl dying), "Judy Mae" (boy's dad dying after finding his new wife & son in bed!)...I know there were many more songs about dying during that time. I wonder why? Musta been all the drugs from the 60's!

Fond memories of my youth, watching a German Shepard save the day, only to have to take off moments before his trainer rolled up in his Jeep. A modern reincarnation of Lassie, Joe not only told of 'Timmy' down a well, he managed to nab the bad guys for the police and otherwise save the day.The trainer in his Jeep stands out in my mind... all these years later, the driver drove it without a roof or doors, and he *never* used his seat belt. If anyone would be wearing a belt in the '70s, you'd think it would be a guy with no doors.Years later, this same theme would be repeated on A-Team, Incredible Hulk, etc.

I'm trying to figure out if this is the TV show, I remember from childhood, about a dog on the run. In my mind it's a 'Hobo' dog, or there's some reference to Hobos.I don't know, it's a fuzzy childhood memory. Did this dog ever travel via freight train cars? Was there a schmaltzy theme song to this show?Was it ever repeated later during the seventies or early eighties? When exactly did this air? I was born in 1971, so I'm not sure if I'm old enough to remember this show, and I wonder if I'm confusing it with another show starring a dog (NOT Benji!!). Were there other TV programs STARRING dogs in the 70s-80s time period?

I can imagine somebody at a think-tank meeting at the TV network. "How about a weekly series about a homeless dog on the run?" Well, what happened was, the network ran with it, and came up with this very minimalistic short-lived TV series about a dog wrongly accused of attacking one it's trainers. The dog goes from location to location, helping those in trouble. Like Ethan Edwards in THE SEARCHERS, he can't stay to enjoy a reward or thanks. He's on the run. A bizarre idea for a series, but it sticks with you.
