Kojak
Kolchak: Night Stalker
Rockford Files
Barnaby Jones
Banacek
Black Sheep Squadron
China Beach

Loved all of these

China Beach killed, never missed one!! trink39.gif

 

Vietnam came into vogue quite a bit in the 80s..."Tour of Duty" was also religiously viewed, as much for the soundtrack as storylines.

anyone remember 'The Mod Squad'?

Oh, you bet! "One's black, one's white, one's blonde....." laugh.gif

 

 

 

I remember Alias Smith and Jones, too. I really liked it. It was not the same after Peter Duell shot himself... (though they did try to replace him) sad.gif

It was a cop show that was on in the late 60's/early 70's.

The scene was L.A...I used to watch it when I was

9-12 yrs old.It was a decent show.

 

You can find most shows,Babycat (including this one) on U-tube.

If you're looking for it, it was actually named Adam-12.

Here's a couple that some of you might recall, if you're old and weird like me: Quark and When Things Were Rotten. The latter was Mel Brook's Robin Hood show that he later scavenged for Robin Hood: Men In Tights. Both didn't last more than 13 weeks....  confused13.gif

Yep, I mentioned Quark already the space garbage collector ship facepalm.gif

I don't remember When Things were Rotten,possibly on ABC?

I remember loving both of them. Richard Benjamin was Quark, yes?

 

And When Things Were Rotten had a catchy theme song!

Alias Smith & Jones

Capitalizing on the success of Newman & Redford's Butch and Sundance success.

 

This show and Planet of the Apes were two favorites.

One of the segments in Love American Style was the inspiration for Happy Days.
