Before there were any versions, or even visions, of Law and Order - There was “in the heat of the night”. Starring Carroll O'Connor as the police chief, and Howard Rollins as police detective Virgil Tibbs, plus who could forget Bubba? Did you know the theme music was composed by the great Quincy Jones? This critically acclaimed show was loosely spun off of the 1967 film and 1965 novel. Every week we got to go back to our favorite small town police department, and they tackled crime, but also tough issues like racism and domestic violence. Certainly why this show was on the air so long, from 1988 to 1995 to be exact. They Call Me Nostalgic Nick, and today we’re checking back into the rough and tough city of Sparta, Mississippi. Not a real city by the way - the production took place in Covington, Georgia so it did move a little slower than LA - Covington was already famous for filming the first 5 episodes of The Dukes of Hazzard, The Covington Public Library was transformed into the Sparta Police Department and that’s where it all happened.If you like this video, make sure to subscribe to the channel so you don’t miss out on any future nostalgia. And Tell us your favorite memory of this show in the comments below. Now let’s get to it.
