Another beautiful women! Old great cars and good looking chicks is the reason I am hooked on this stuff. I wish they could colorize these episodes because I believe that is one beautiful dress and she wears it well!
Feminism is a losing proposition for women and too many fell for the propaganda. They ad so much more power before. Now they are competing with biological men saying they are women and more. Those original feminists like Steinheim and Germaine Geer were Judas Goats and didn't even know it. Now, Greer is being cancelled and called "trans phobic" because she said trans women weren't women. Icon in the '70s, cancelled in the 2010s. Oh, how have the mighty fallen.
@@denniscardinal1227I’m weighing 537 pounds and my breasts sag beneath my belly button. Incan only dream of a beautiful figure on that girl! I eat 11 deep fried chickens a day, and that’s only for breakfast! I’m trying to lose weight but I gotta yeast infection in my vagina, and the puss stinks and men keep away from me even my dog, I don’t even enjoy masterb@tiin anymore cos it’s is so messy and smelly.
May of 2022. I was wondering if AAA still had maps to hand out. They used to have the greatest assortment of USA, State, and county maps. Wonder if they still do?
The murdered driver's windows on the car were not broken. That means the bullet traveled up to his window, then stopped and took a sharp right turn into his back.What a shot!
Pretty cool when they shot the guy in the station wagon (no holes) and he puts the brakes on just before jumping the curb. I can't blame the show for not trashing out the car.
I loved the way Dan nearly set himself and the desk on fire with that burning bin. But why does the Chief have to keep telling his 2i/c - aged about 40 - how basic policing and the law works, like he's a rookie cop? Ans what's the deal with that pencil and the map? Lots of clunky comfort in those old shows.
Just started watching this a few weeks ago. Always liked Broderick. I love how Dan Mathews always finds some clue lying on the road and the music lets you know that it's important. : )
Gee, Sheila threw her cigarettes out before she finished them. Maybe they didn't have enough taste? She should've tried Kools, with that refreshing menthol flavor that never quits, puff after puff.
Hijack scenes filmed on Griffith Park Road in Los Angeles, and unlike the landscapes in most of the episodes Griffith Park hasn't changed all that much. While the landscape is the same you wouldn't drive through Griffith Park at night and come out alive just like most of L.A..
I remember going through the Griffith Park area , with my family on picnics and camping trips, back in the early 60's to mid 70's... One of our favorite places to go was called Schideck & Reyes campground (Now called Reyes Creek). There were lots of places like those , just outside of the L.A. area and the San Fernando Valley, back then (50+ years ago). It was a relatively clean and safe place to go for the family-to get away from the city, 50+ years ago... Sadly, that is not the way those places are-anymore... They have become very dangerous at night, mainly because of criminal activity in those areas... Some of the main reasons that I like to watch these really old T.V. shows, is to see these actors /actress's in their prime, to see these places that my family & friends visited in the past, and of course to see those fabulous cars, trucks, motorcycles, aircraft, etc. - from those amazing times.
They always do the same thing. They manhandle the evidence. Why didnt they check the cigarrette stub for prints? Im sure that Cathy Case's got a record. She's slso got a great body.
As usual, I've thumbed this one up as a sop to memories from 60-odd years ago, but this episode had some schoolboy howlers in it. LOL. Shocking continuity error at about 12:55 when Dan and the sarge come looking for the turnoff the truck made. Still, I wouldn't have minded kidnapping the brunette for myself - Cathy Case looks drop-dead gorgeous here! Yummy!
This episode was pretty stupid but I really enjoy this series. They change cars all the time. Buicks, Pontiacs, Olds, Plymouths, Mercs. not like other TV shows that are sponsored by one car company. Love those old cars.
@@drcurv The '57 & '58 'Custom Royal' Dodge Coronets were absolutely a work of art... Especially with the 325 Hemi 'Red Ram' engines and those tail fins with the dual radio antennas... Way Beyond cool...
WOW! who wouldn't stop for that hot tomato?! What a figure! "School books! the whole stinkin mess!, what'll we do now Vance?" READ AND LEARN. all the way down with the gear selector for reverse gear with the hydromatic on that lovely and sweet gray and white '55 poncho wagon. looks like BC and the sarge cleaned the ashes before the perps returned to the hideout. enjoying the show, thanks
I remember that Pontiac wagon from when I was a kid. Jerry and his wife had one. We camped a lot at Lake Lanier. I thought it was so cool. The 1st car I ever saw with power brakes. I was 7. What did I know?
A '56 Pontiac wagon! An uncle of mine had one just like that and I remember being jealous as all hell when he and his family rolled into our driveway in it. And there we were, still with our old '49 Dodge 2 dr.
2dr ? 2drive? 2 geared box ? Drive chain? 2 down to reverse? I googled spend 30 mins of my life trying to figure out? 2dr? Oh I get it,…. 2drive in R reverse!
Dan waddles around while the other cops in good shape move sharp. Also in the shootouts, Dan fires from the hip with a 2" revolver at a fair distance and hits his man. However, I do like this show.
The good guys always seemed to win in the end on this T.V. show... That is the first indication of a classic 1950's production... I PARTICULARILY liked the sayings that Broderick Crawford had at the end of the show, like "Wreckless driving does not prove who's right or wrong-but who's left." Or "Leave your blood at the Red Cross, Not on the Highway" ... This show came at a time when Values really meant something..
@@Catquick1957 only so much room in sets. He has to make the most of its finite square footage, hence Dan: “ Must remember to take very very small steps .. not quite skips but close enuf,
The take-a-way from each and every one of these episodes is *DON'T* do more then one job. In TV or real life, the cops are always looking for a pattern, so you better make the first one a *BIG ONE!*
Another female with misplaced management skills and values! Where did she go wrong? These guys, did they think they were living extensions of wild west shows? Lone Ranger, Wild Bill, Cisco, Palledin, etc. always got their man! The guilt would have eaten them up naturally over time also. Love the enthusiasm of Matthews! Notice how he has to hook and drag these officers into action. Every generation needs a good handful of these kind of people like Matthews. Dedication and perseverance!! And Timelyness!!
*Starfleet's greatest starship captain appeared in this episode as "Joe Tyler", the crooked truck driver. In the original Star Trek episode, "Whom Gods Destroy", he played "Garth of Izar", a former starship captain who was considered the best who ever was. Only one problem: he went insane and had to be locked away. Steve Ihnat played the role, so it was interesting to see him in an earlier performance on "Highway Patrol".*
It's a wonder the whole building didn't go up after kicking the flaming garbage under the desk, lol! Gotta love the what must be TRIPLE action triggers on those prop revolvers, with the way they man handle the triggers. Ahh, the simplicity of these old shows :^)
Aside from the possibility that the cigarette could have landed there at a different time, if the guy got conked on the head and was unconscious, why would he necessarily had to have seen every person that was with the hijackers?
@@russelljohnson1303 Those trucks for family and town use along with the trains of our nation made America strong - but now that they are gone, America is headed back to the days of weakness, EXACTLY what Biden and his lefty progressive communists want.
@@russelljohnson1303 I wonder if my 1960 Ramble Classic, if it had been able to last this long, would be worth anything today. It sure wasn't then! haha
@@retiredmusiceducator3612 probably not a ton of money today Just like my Plymouth they're rare cars today but not a ugly looking stereotypical 57 Chevy. So even if their rare their not worth much to most classic car collectors...
Drove that Griffith park road many times to an early morning tee time at Wilson or Harding courses on any Saturday. Hello starter Danny. Met good friend 3 wood tommy Weber there😺
The second driver is Steve Ihnat who sadly died in 1972 at age 37. He had a number of prominent roles in film and TV in the 1960s and early '70s and his last appearance was in the Burt Reynolds cop flick "Fuzz" released posthumously. He is interred just 9 plots (crypts) from Marilyn Monroe. Steve's son (born the year his father died) died in 2004 at just 32.
I knew it was him. So young. He was a favorite actor from the original Star Trek and the short-lived "Dundee and THE Culhane". His widow and Peter Marshall were married for a time.
I think he also appeared in an episode of the original Star Trek of the 1960's. Also interred right near Marilyn is actor Jay C. Flippin (from 60's t.v. show McHale's Navy)
Sugar Baby wore the same dress through the whole episode which I'm guessing story line wise covered a couple of days at least. Highly unusual for a woman to wear the same dress for that long.
What's going to happen to me, asks they woman with the dead crook husband? Dan says looking down at the dead crook, the same thing that happened to him! I like that.
At the 1:22 mark, the chick says my car stalled in this fog... even though this episode was from 1959, smog didn't become a real problem until about the mid-60s through the 70s.
Never leave butts around. It is possible to get DNA from saliva or skin cells on the filter. Cases have been broken that way. We would always take them for evidence just in case
I enjoy car and truck spotting the parked cars and thinking about how they were actually real people's cars, but also the number of late 40's models. I had a 55 Buick Special in high school, car was my age in 73.
TV and movie thugs in those days didn't seem to realize shoving a pistol in the direction you want the bullet to go spoils your aim. Even worse when they swing the gun down as if trying to throw the bullet. But maybe some aspiring criminals actually tried it, which could have saved lives among intended victims. That's what happened in the '80s and '90s when it was thought hip to hold the gun sideways, like in Lethal Weapon.
@@JohnPMitten Lethal Weapon was a popular movie franchise (4 films) of the '80s and '90s starring Mel Gibson and Danny Glover. Somewhere in the series the Gibson character started holding his pistol sideways - 90 degrees to the usual, more stable position - and while he managed to shoot the villains this way, the gangstas who followed the fashion were markedly less accurate.
