== Final work == Gil Melle scored the pilot and third TV movie for the Six Million Dollar Man, and Stu Phillips scored the second TV movie, but Oliver Nelson scored season one and half of season two of The Six Million Dollar Man in 1974-75 until his passing. Fellow jazz musician Benny Golson stepped in to score one episode after Nelson's death, then others took over, though Nelson's theme in the opening and closing credits remained in use for the duration of the series.
