I hadn't thought of this one for years. I used to watch it with my parents . Thanks for posting.

Good wholesome entertainment. The kind sorely missing today. I search these shows out. Better than anything out there today.

Man, what a treat!! I loved this show as a kid (born 1958), but carried away almost no memories of it (aside from the theme song). Now I can finally watch it again, thanks to you, Dan!

Great show i was born in 59 i missed all the good shows . thank you for the video s

Good simple entertainment.

Great show. I'll be back.

That was great. We didn't need to see any blood, we got to hear a 2 stroke, and the story had a happy ending!

"The Romeo of the road" hahaha. I'm just a little old man now but once upon a time that was me!

William Campbell here as co-star played several guest roles on the original Star Trek. Trelane was one, Koloth rhe Klingon Commander at station K-7, during the tribbles episode, was rhe other one.

The Cannonball or GMC 850 cab over was a navy blue color. They had a sign posting in front of it at the Golden Age of Trucking museum in Middlebury,Ct. The owner of it is from Maine. It was the original from the Tv series the museum operator told me. Identical right down to last detail. A single. Axle GMC 850 cab over with the sleeper on it as you might remember from the tv show. Ran like new still the owner drove it to the museum personally for six months consignment to display their most unusual trucks for the public to see at the museum. As you might imagine I couldn’t believe it to see it in person. Had to climb up into the cab and sit behind the wheel to get a feel of what it must have been like to drive it. I have driven big trucks in the past but this was the apple of my eye for sure. Fantastic truck for sure.

I was 5 years old when this thing came out. I remember seeing it, but I never could remember its title. Thanks for the video.

Saturday night and homemade fudge such memories

I was able to meet Paul Birch in Atmore, Alabama around 1967. His sister, Elizabeth Blalock had passed away and he was in town making the Funeral arrangements. A group of teen-agers went over to the house and met him. He gave us all his signature, which I have kept to this day. The movies he was in were always shown at the local Strand Theater in Atmore, Alabama. As he was from Atmore (a small Alabama town) and a television and movie star, his pictures were never missed by the local town's people.

I vaguely remember seeing this perhaps when originally broadcast.

Dang. This was a great show, as a kid.

Incredible surgical resuscitation for 1958, or even now. Thanks for the upload.
