One of the greatest TV dramas, ever. Fun Fact: Michael Warren was 32 when he played 17 year old Bobby Magnum.
Black don't crack
Brother when I tell you this show is gangster! This kills any show today!
It is a great show, I'm loving it!! I'm binging it and can't come off of it. I'm almost 46 and never heard of this show until yesterday.
@@sharris3624 right lol. It’s thanksgiving on camera.
@@konflict86 yessss, I'm liking it so much, I'm all at work trying to watch it and will continue once I'm home. 🤫🤦🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️😂
🗣️🗣️👏🏽👏🏽🙏🏽
Everybody Hates Chris is the best
White Shadow was a really awesome show. I always loved how the coach cared for his players. 👍💪
Sacrificially. Not many real coaches like that today.
So true was loyal solid man💪🏾👏🏽🙏🏽
Watched is show as a kid. It's quality and still holds up. Knows how to highlight social issues without beating you over the head with a blunt object.
The acting in this show is top notch.i was 10 years old and loved this show and now I'm watching it like it's on Netflix on hear
White Shadow was a fantastic show. Great drama, comedy and heartfelt moments….👍⭐️
My cousin Nathan played Reese
@@josephgaines368😎May he continue to rip🕊️
It was like the U.S version of degrassi
This show was outstanding in spite of it's subpar TV ratings! Quite frankly, I find it GENIUS! Both Bruce Paltrow and Ken Howard deserve some type of award for creating and producing premium quality TV that stands the test of time! There are so many attributes, I don't have space to discuss them all! This show was so much better than its ratings, sad that it isn't in syndicated reruns on some retro channel FOREVER!
Great tv series. Wish it lasted longer.
I forgot how good this show was. Thanks for the upload.
I was in middle school in North Jersey when this came out. I remember thinking
Sybil Buchanan would get my full attention😍
Coolidge has a dream in season 3 that he is on the Globetrotters. In it Sybil is dressed in a sexy outfit. Its must see tv and I agree😍
@@markmathewson6400Yes she was!!!
Was your middle school back then consider Junior High School? It was here in California
The Coach is the best when it comes to his players. Sometimes his methods are unconventional but the love he shows for them is inspiring.
this was one of my favorite shows in the 70s.
How have I just discovered this show? Great acting, great writing, realistic looking basketball being played, storylines that are still relevant in 2023, taking on real issues without being preachy... what happened to shows like this?
Just started watching this show last night, and I really like it. Can’t believe how underrated it is.
I love the groovy music
Tackled some real serious issues in the late '70s and early '80s when few other shows did.
And shows still 'tackling' those same 'serious issues'. Why haven't we learned the lessons this show supposedly gave 45 years ago?
Reliving Jr. High, afterschool, once again!! Channel 9, What's Happening, and, The White Shadow. Good show. Good topics, good era. Not like today's TV line up.
I can see you grew up in LA like me
Tv today has the same topics. We've not grown as a society.
And laker games
Yup. That was my memory as well. I watched the reruns on channel 9, I believe it was 1982. I was 10 years old and getting into basketball. Man, I’m so glad I found this on UA-cam.
This was an excellent show. Howard really captured that jock arrogance.
The working relationship between Coach Ken Reeves and Ms. Sybil Buchanan is unique and quite sarcastic. They don't see eye to eye at times but always seem to come to a resolution to a problem.
I forgot how good this show was.
Thanks for uploading! I rememebr watching this as a young 11/12 year old. The best show!
Addicted to this show, amazing acting
White shadows. Good old days. This tv show kills all the nowadays tv shows
Extremely well acted. Not a wasted scene. God bless l.a ca
Ken Howard a Great Actor R.I.P.
RIP Nathan Cook as well
Imagine if that knee of Ken’s held out a few more years and he and Jordan played together. Bulls would have 10 rings.
It would have been Howard taking the shot instead of kucok and pippen wood be mad at Howard and we all know Howard would beat the shut out of pippen 🤣🤣🤣
Maybe Reeves would have married Juanita Jordan , got some of Michael’s bread
Ken Reeves was already 38 by the time he coached Carver(according to dialogue in one of the first 2 episodes)….maybe he would have caught Reggie Theus’s rookie season but he wouldn’t have lasted till ‘84
I remember watching this 📺 show back in 1979?
That principal Mr. Willis was a cool dude on this show.
This show had a healthy, adult way of dealing with minority and interracial/social issues. I like it.
Classic sitcom wit a social awareness under bite
Thanks for the love classic TV form the 70's 80's and 90's are the best I know in 95 I was 21.
Heavy.
Peace to Renn Woods.
In the 7th episode, Manuel Padillo Jr. as one of the aztecs, was on Tarzan in the 60's. The dancing music sounds a little like "Conga" by the Miami Sound Machine.
I love that guy!
R.I.P.
Had he been living, and because he's a native Angeleno, I would've cast him as the host and narrator for the NFL Films documentary "Last Day In LA" about the Rams and Raiders leaving Los Angeles in 1994.
This show would NEVER fly today.
Absolutely loved this show.. ,, looking back on it,, i related to evrything that was going on,,, didnt matter what ur background was..
Ken Howard was actually a College basketball player....
I remember watching this show as a child with my mom
I don't know, but Tony Soprano when he is calm and problem solving, reminds me a little of Ken Reeves. Wild.
@58:00 I never rooted for a winner in a one on one game ever like this one lol. Great show.

Fun fact on Hill Street Blues.Dennis Franz called Mike warrens toupee ,Willie!!!
I think miss Buchanan wants reeves
They had chemistry, but if you really look at the episodes her and the principal had more!
Jonathan Frakes will Riker of star trek the generation in episode 8 .
This was a really good show. A little corny, now, but pretty raw in 1982.
Maybe not as culturally sensitive as we are today. But look at the positive, the black actors were outstanding and able to showcase their abilities. The player characters, Haywood, Thorpe, and Coolidge were a revelation to me, when I was a kid.
The best.acting
Best writing..sunshine LA . Joan Pringle Sybil and kens little jostles are hilarious..
3:38:58 A passenger asked for an autograph from Coach Reeves thinking he (coach) is Bob Cousy
3:39:35 The passenger said "He told me, your Bob Cousy!" Hahaha!
I miss the days when you could leave an hour before your plane takes off 😂
Miss Byukana Top player
3:28:27 Is that Jerry West?
3:28:41 Hi, Jerry (West)!
RIP Jerry West
2:03:16 So beautiful Gloria Calomee
I thought the same thing, she’s unreal…
Man Darlene got off hella lightly with that lying drama.
This is one of the 1970's produced shows that I direct younger people to watch if they think we all dressed in the outlandish, ostentatious, gaudy clothing that they themselves snap up in the thrift stores.
Surprised they allowed the word 'fag' back then. Perhaps it was edited for the actual broadcast?
Have you ever watched --- all in the family? The language on there far surpasses anything on this show. The 70s we're pretty open.
25:00 one of my favorite moments
1:57:40; Mexican girl got a gorgeous look in that Long Hair and Dark Brown.
@2:25 its the Gay Episode! Not bad, in my opinion.
On the 5th episodes. The girl/woman who played Darlene. Was she on the mini series “Roots”?
Yes. She played OJ Simpson's daughter.
3:48:55 Foreshadowing his own fate 😭😭😭
He died?
@ Yes, Jackson dies in a liquor store going to get wine for the others in season 2 which is ironic, since his character had an alcohol problem in season 1.
@@CogensFamilyTVyet in real life it was the actor who played Reese was the first of the cast to die
Boy he predicted his death
Shame of what? NATURE? Who cares bout marriage anyway?
This is the same era as Moonlighting, and Cheers and I wanted the two principles Coach Reeves and Vice Principle Sybil Buchanan to get it on. She was always in his stuff, and he knew how to control her. If they became a couple, it would have been great television!
Hill Steeet Blues was very sexy with the precinct captain and the defense lawyer?
2:44:36 the team theyyplaying looking like Gonzaga from a few years ago
Coach Howard, assuming basketball is his only way out when even the girlfriend suggest college & "where he comes from" u marry the girl, blk ppl believed in that too" smh
If the show had gone on a couple more seasons, I could expect the Post/Carpenter score to sound more like "The Greatest American Hero" with more tragic moments being along the lines of fellow MTM show Hill Street Blues.
About that theme music used in "That Old Gang of Mine," it just sounds like the show should've gone to Universal TV or Stephen J. Cannell Productions instead. They should have gotten Patrick Williams or Dave Grusin instead.
Patrick Williams - The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Rhoda, Lou Grant
Dave Grusin - St. Elsewhere (theme composer, 1982 - 1988)
Henry Mancini - Remington Steele (theme composer, 1982 - 1987)
Newhart (theme composer, 1982 - 1990)
Mike Warren UCLA!
2:04:43 it is a very good alternative though 💯 and I'm not even black..
3:14:09 this alternative opening song sounds generic…not sure why they used this one for some episodes and the original for the other….the original opening song is so much better than this one
My Girl 37:00
3:47:26 the line delivery from the pilot is some of the worst line delivery I’ve heard in my entire life
Well-intentioned and the creators hearts in the right place but the characters and some of the situations and how the problems are solved are about as believable as the Tooth Fairy.
Watch other shows of the era. The writing here is actually quite good. It surprises me how often they are able to navigate difficult storylines. Even if they slip here and there like the “massa” line.
@@Aaaaaaaa-ix4rpyes.. a different time.
Fanx!!!!!!
0:15, 10:31
2:32:02 😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Great show but I wish they had actual teens in it rather than guys in their mid to late twenties.
Some are teenagers. Not all of them. The actors had to audition and also to play basketball.
@Richard Bullis
I never watched this show back then, even though I was a varsity athlete because I didn't like basketball... still don't.
I think it was running in the same time slot with something on NBC that I really liked, maybe "Class Of '65"?
But I love this show now because I WAS in high school then.
I wondered how they found good actors that could actually play.
Yes like Beverly Hills 90210 who had an actor in her 30s 😂
@@kidmack3556 they had to audition with a requirement they actually played basketball 🏀
Thorpe would be considered a Uncle Tom
Why are you calling him that. What is an Uncle Tom.
By today's standards every black kid on that team would be considered a "Tom"
No, not Thrope
Thorpe’s a smart ass, not a tom!
@@stephaniegormley9982
Great comment!
But I would've worded it; "By today's LACK of standards"
02:42 Jonathan Frakes Wow!
