Vrhunac Grayove karijere svakako je bila uloga u televizijskoj seriji Shazam, čije se emitiranje odvijalo između 1974. i 1976. godine na kanalu CBS. U toj popularnoj emisiji uživo, Gray je utjelovio lik Billyja Batsona, običnog dječaka koji bi izgovaranjem jedne magične riječi postao superjunak Captain Marvel
