CHIPS - they used to use stunt double cars when doing trick stuff... Ponch had that camaro, but when it was driving fast on 2 wheels (chitwood style)or getting crushed, the car had hubcaps instead of nice wheels, etc....

Grossman!

I can't believe being car fanatics you people have forgotten one of the greatest car shows of all time with one of the greatest cars of all time. Dukes of Hazzard. Just them good ole boys...never meaning no harm! When i was a kid i had a General Lee Style Big Wheel.

- p.s. i know someone mentioned daisy only in a passing comment i'm talking about the show people.

I thought the fact that Daisy Dukes were mentioned early in this thread covered the Good 'Ole Boys from Hazzard county . . .

By the way, I remember owning both the Dukes of Hazzard and A-Team board games. . .

I figured my Daisy reference would cover Cooter and the gang....

The Master was a great show. Ninjas were really big at the time in movies so it was a natural move to TV. This was LONG before that Teenage Mutant Turtle nonsense.

BJ & The Bear starring Greg Evigan of the later My Two Dads debacle (with Paul Raiser). The bear as I recall was a monkey. Perhaps looking to capitalize on the Clint Eastwood/ape movies.

Matt Houston was also a very good show. I don't think it a big coincidence, however, that the guy looked a hell of a lot like Magnum...I stopped watching it when I got into Miami Vice which happened to be on at the same time.

Blue Thunder based on the movie with Roy Schieder of Jaws fame. Airwolf was a better TV show and Firefox a much better movie. Why won't they release Firefox on DVD?

Julie, drug and I believe sex addicted. Seemed to be going the way of Dana Plato (aka Kimberly on Different Strokes). As long as you talk about the Love Boat you have to also mention Fantasy Island...Da plane boss, da plane!
