Run For Your Life

video

From: Wikipedia.org
Run for Your Life was a television drama series starring Ben Gazzara as a man with only a short time to live. It ran on NBC from 1965 to 1968. The series was created by Roy Huggins, who had previously explored the "man on the move" concept with The Fugitive.

Gazzara plays lawyer Paul Bryan. When his doctor tells him he will die in a year or two, he decides to do all the things he had never had time for. Much like Route 66, each episode features the main character on the move, encountering new people in new situations.
