The Love Boat- 1977-1986

Show Summary

Set aboard the Pacific Princess, a luxury cruise ship which embarked each week on a romantic, sentimental, and often hilarious voyage across tropic seas. Three or four stories told on each telecast were interwoven and often involved the ship's crew, who were seen on the show every week. Famous movie and TV stars were delighted to accept guest roles on The Love Boat's floating sound stage, combining work with travel to exotic locations. Most of the episodes were filmed on two real cruise ships, the Pacific Princess and the Island Princess, during their regular voyages from the Virgin Islands to Alaska. Paying passengers were invited to participate as extras. (Tim's TV Showcase)
