A man is tricked into supplying computer tapes by using a fake auto accident and telling him the other victim died, thus making him a murderer. Two bumbling detectives take the case.
Paul Williams and Pat McCormick were quite good in this episode. Some will remember them as Little Enos and Big Enos from Smokey and the Bandit. Lots of fun dialogue in this one, well written.
These characters were introduced in a pilot called "Rooster" produced by Glen Larson for ABC in 1982. The network decided not to take the pilot to series so Larson re-introduced Rooster Steele and Sweets McBride in this episode.
Paul Williams was also a very influential songwriter, writing or co-writing among other hit songs, "An Old Fashioned Love Song" and "Out in the Country" by Three Dog Night, "We've Only Just Begun" and "Rainy Days and Mondays" by The Carpenters, "You and Me Against the World" by Helen Reddy, "Fill Your Heart" by David Bowie, "Evergreen" as performed by Barbra Streisand in "A Star Is Born", and "Rainbow Connection" from "The Muppet Movie."
The scene at about the 8 minute mark when the guy jumps off the building onto the airbag is a clip from The Fall Guy season 1 episode called, 'Charlie'.
Didn't have a dime to phone but just paid for a cab. See the things you miss a kid and them go cars are ace you know being an 80s kid has to have been the best decade ever 💯💥
Possibly,yes Knight Rider used miniature vehicles too in season 2 and part of season 3 until the fans protested and said they didn't like it.I didn't like the miniatures either.
Where's episode 10? Usually i can find the next sequential episode 2 the right @ the top of the next videos 2 b seen. I've got an ad then number 11, happy trails.
43:36 The one highway patrolman played a crooked cop in "Dolemite". The one who badgers Lee Majors at the end of this episode. His name is John Kerry, not the politician.
Yes he has,he was a brilliant actor.I loved him on Knight Rider in the episode Goliath Returns as Dr Klaus Bergstrom who was kidnapped by the evil Garth Knight.
This episode was an obvious backdoor pilot. Written by series creator Glen Larson too....he was definitely looking to expand him empire with the new characters.
