After the cancellation of Martian, Bixby starred in four box-office movies: Ride Beyond Vengeance (1966), on which he played the evil, Johnsy Boy Hood, You’ve Got to Be Kidding (1967), and two of Elvis Presley’s movies, Clambake (1967), and Speedway (1968).

Bill Bixby - The Courtship of Eddie's Father
In 1969, Bixby starred as Tom Corbett in another successful sitcom, The Courtship of Eddie’s Father for ABC, about a widowed father who wants to spend more time with his son while dating women. It was based on the popular 1963 movie, starring Glenn Ford and Ron Howard. His co-star on the show was Brandon Cruz. The chemistry of both Bixby & Cruz got connected and they would be able to spend more time with each other, on and off the set, and Bixby became a father to Cruz, each and everytime. He was also one of Hollywood's eligible bachelors, having to date only one lady, while working long hours. Bixby directed some of the episodes, also tensions rise high on the set when orders don't follow through. He was nominated for a Emmy Award for Lead Actor in a Comedy Series, but didn’t win, and the following year, he won the Parents Without Partners: Exemplary Service Award for 1972. By its final season, Courtship started to take a nose dive in the ratings, and at the same time, Bixby had an argument with James Komack which caused more friction. It was cancelled in 1972 after 78 episodes. However, during 1981, after Bixby lost his only child, he confided in Brandon and got to be able to spend more time together, when not busy, just before Bixby's death.
