The Flying Nun


  April 3, 1970, ABC aired the final episode of The Flying Nun, a fantasy sitcom starring Sally Field as Sister Bertrille, a novice nun who could fly thanks to her lightweight frame and starched cornette. The show, based on Tere Ríos’ book The Fifteenth Pelican, followed Sister Bertrille and her convent in San Juan, Puerto Rico, as they helped underprivileged children and locals, blending social messages with zany comedy.

Supporting cast included Madeleine Sherwood (Reverend Mother Placido), Marge Redmond (Sister Jacqueline), Alejandro Rey (Carlos Ramirez), Shelley Morrison (Sister Sixto), Linda Dangcil (Sister Ana), and Vito Scotti (Captain Gaspar Fomento). The series ran from September 7, 1967, to April 3, 1970, producing 82 episodes including the hour-long pilot.
