The son could have played Billy Budd: so much innocence in his eyes, so much purity in his blond beauty...! Excellent actor, too. And a masterful performance by Broderick Crawford, once again. THANKS.
Was always my favorite 50s cop tv show, I have the whole collection of this great show, my mother & me watched everyone of them not long after she passed on she's missed as my dad is but I will always treasure this show as well old time comedies of the 50s & 60s we all use to watch together.
Loved that '55-'56 Chevy Pickup with the big rear window. It was a deluxe model with the chrome grill and front bumper with the optional bumperettes. It must have been an automatic also, for the kid to be able to put it in reverse so easily.
i believe that chevy truck from the mid '50's was called "cameo". a gussied up pick up with a 2 speed powerglide auto tranny. not many auto tranny's in trucks then. they were an expensive option and didn't perform well in truck use at the time. i'm guessing many of those powerglides got replaced with junk yard manual tranny;s when they failed in those trucks. today's trucks with auto tranny's do well and better than a manual tranny. the chevy truck and gm's cars in the 1950's had 2 speed tranny's that the shift pattern was PARK, NEUTRAL, DRIVE,LOW, REVERSE making reverse easy to shift into while going forward.
I have loved this series since I saw it for the first time in 1970. Always loved the old cars.I was a 10 year old when I started watching this series in reruns. That Chevy pickup with a large window is a rare one, much more common was the small rear window.
@@roadmaster720 It looked like they used different trucks in the pulled over scene and the pulling into the home scene. I think that all the Cameos had covered real wheel wells, but I may be mistaken. When I saw the truck pulling into the farm, I immediately thought it was a Cameo because it looked to have a two-tone roof, but they didn't show the bed. Good eye! I love all of those details, too.
@kurtdublin, Nothing has ever been a crime drama to even come close. It had everything to make it great. Superb writing, production, direction, and real settings! The acting was second to none! Some episodes were definitely "noir-ish".
I have seen so many comments saying that Brod. Crawford was drunk while filming these shows! There were members of my close family that were drunkards, and they couldn't move with such great agility and purpose as Dan Matthews did, with him moving and speaking his lines so perfectly and rapidly! Also Broderick didn't appear to be intoxicated on the show, so maybe he DID NOT drink while on the job!
Some months ago on Facebook I met one of the child actors who made a couple of appearances on the show and she recalled that Broderick was not drunk. He seemed to work with kids quite well.
Broderick Crawford was not just drunk, he was convicted of several DUIs. Guessing he lawyered up before any questioniing ...unlike this phony show. How can anyone in the 21st century fall for this garbage?
@@reynaldoflores4522 According to IMDB and other bios I found online, Del Erickson (Grant Elliott) was born June 30, 1943 -- making him 12 years old when he filmed this episode of Highway Patrol (I was 8 years-old at the time). The script said he was 17. I believed that as that would have made him about 10 years older than me (born July 1948). So I figured Grant was born in 1938. I just find it hard he was just 12-years-old at the time, playing a 17-year-old.
That is one beautiful 1955 Chevy truck. With optional whitewall tires and big back window. A man in a neighboring town has one all restored original but at $35K a little steep for me. This was one of very few episodes that was partially filmed at night. The only other one I know (unless I missed one) was Dan Hostage in 1959.
Dan said he’d seen a lot of ugly things but a father allowing his son to go to jail for his crimes, throws shade on Joe B. letting his son, Hunter, take the rap.
The 1955 Chevy truck in original condition makes me want to cry. Nearly all have been destroyed by restomodders and almost no originals left. This one was rare in that it was a long bed ( just 7000 were built) It was heavily optioned for a pickup at the time with whitewall tires, chrome grille, chrome hubcaps and wrap around rear window. Although it isn't shown it may have had a Hydramatic transmission (another extra cost item) as reverse was on the far right until 1958, so it would be easy for the boy to put in in reverse if he were in a hurry to get away. Grant was a good son who was in school the whole time and his thieving father was going to let him hang for his own misdeeds. Very ungrateful!!
Got a funny feeling this Erickson kid lied about his birth year. He made a "Hot Rod" movie in 1956 and was in "Blackboard Jungle" in 55'......theres no way he was 13 years old playing a hotrodder........I'd say at least 5 years older than he admitted.......,! Cant find any credits after the fifties....something rotten in Denmark ,.!?
Yes, the sound of a SOLID door, but you have to remember these were "mid- priced" vehicles (Buicks , Oldsmobiles), you expected them to be high quality. However, from what I remember during that era ('50s) those doors required a bit of a "slam" to close unlike today's car doors that close with a light touch (even on the cheapest econo-boxes)! Also, those doors, at least on the cheaper cars, tended to fly open unexpectedly (even on a hard bump) due to the inadequate latch design back in the day! Don't let the SOUND fool you, today's vehicles have MUCH SAFER doors!
@@williamjackson5942 Right. A short punch-up at police HQ used to save us millions & millions in court costs, slimy lawyers, "rights advocates", and all the rest of the crap. Much nicer country, safer, more civilized.

The ACLU would have been of little help back then. It was before the Supreme Court issued the Miranda decision, and besides, back then everyone, including the ACLU, was too busy looking for reds hiding under beds.
2:58..."What happened?"..."Ran down. Somebody ran him down" That's why officers are supposed to radio in (or enter in the computer) info re: any vehicle that they pull over BEFORE they go out to meet the driver. Also, another commenter mentioned that officers should not stand behind suspects' vehicles with the driver still behind the wheel.
They didn't do that then and even in the 1970s they still didn't at least not everywhere. We had a police ride-along program and I rode several times. When someone was pulled over they didn't radio it in until after. That changed in the 1980s.
Not hit and run. He brought the patrolman in. Hard to prove not an accident even if negligence or reckless. He probly would have been prosecuted, but that would clutter up the story.
Why not?? They never looked at his license or the truck's tag.What if he panics again & decides not to turn up??? Don't worry about it.....Gee Dan you're the boss and you let him go,I'm not worried.
Good catch. I just googled the car and someone has a 54 Lincoln Capri on eBay, going for $11,500. February 11, 2019. I had forgotten about the Lincoln Capri. I had a '71 and a '72 Mercury Capri, "the sexy European car," as pitched in TV ads. Spunky little 4-bangers and handled nicely.
That baffled me too, not to mention that the officer hadn't recovered enough to give many details, so they get the whole account from the perp?? After the burglary connection was made, they also seemed to totally disregard the whole "running over the cop" thing. Lastly, why the crap didn't the fool father just load the truck with some non-stolen stuff during that wait period and claim that's what the cop saw, rather than saying he lied or imagined it? The cop barely got a look at it before he was hit.
"Some alert old lady got a license number." Like that was some kind of rare phenomena that a senior citizen was coherent enough to get a license number of a thief's vehicle.Ha!
It was a much kinder, gentler world back then. Now they would throw the book at the kid. Assault, obstruction of justice, possession of stolen property, providing a false statement, being an accessory and Conspiracy.
That ""kid" was / is a minor.....They couldn't even question him without the father present......I know , I know -- it's a T.V. show.....and an old one. But it IS full of holes.....,! I still love Dan , don't get me. Wrong.......
Have you noticed when they get really close up on Broderick his hair is wet. I mean like sopping from sweat. I wonder if he needed a drink? I have read over and over how he had a drinking problem. He was like many what is called a functioning alcoholic. They function perfectly normal when sloshed and no one would ever know they are sloshed, only when they aren't.
Nathan Tarantla I remember that at Brylcreame and others. All the men it seemed used one or another. It was probably hot as hell too when some episodes where filmed. That would explain it. I could never understand why when it is hot do the shows here have people wrapped up like they are in Alaska. Even when you know it was Summer when they filmed. Strange.I watch shows from the UK, Australia and New Zealand and they don't hide the heat,and sweat when they film and it;s Summer. Illusionists,then we real folks wonder why we aren;t :normal", well normal by Hollywood standards.
Nathan Tarantla That stuff, Right Guard spray, Old Spice, all what old men used,haha later came Brut which wasn't anywhere near as bad as Old Spice. That stuff to me still stinks. haha I think of old man when I smell it. haha Vitalis,and Brylcream were pretty greasy and the women's version was Alberto VO~5 in the tube. That stank too.They still make it.
ZoneFighter1 Yes, all the old men I knew wore Old Spice. It stinks. They still make Brut. Remember Hi Karate? Now, they want to smell like they wear women's perfume. My late Husband never wore anything but deoderant. He did start using the after shave moisturizer from Avon when I sold Avon. Me, he spoiled me on good perfume. Today,I am picky and when he got me Obsession when it came out, I didn't have the heart to tell him it was too spicy. I wore it, but not often. I finally admitted it was to spicy for me. It smelled like Old Spice to me. haha
The way traffic stops are made has changed in 60 years. First tags would have been called in before officer approached driver. And license registration would have been asked for.and officers never should walk behind said stopped vehicle
I’d like to see the episode where Dan chases Amos and Luke McCoy for helping Pepino across the border without a green card and Kate and Hassie are selling alfalfa without a business permit
Very true, Edward Gurea. ALWAYS HAVE 2 POLICEMEN ON PATROL. Always ,also, niether one of them stand behind the suspect's car while he is still at the wheel.
Chuck Rawlings at first I thought maybe you were being a little harsh. But then I saw the first scene with the dad. I’ll hand you the envelope. Geez, that guy was really bad.😖👎
That left one unanswered question that Mathews didn’t ask in the office with the Elliot’s, why did the boy reverse the pick up truck into the copper, claiming it was an accident, when I believed it was attempted murder, if not, why did he claim innocence?.
About like Adam and Eve. He loved her enough to follow her actions and when called on the carpet, "That woman you gave me!" That kind of thing goes a long way back.
Introducing Jim Hayward in his overacting debut as Charles Elliot in this episode of HP, delivering his most famous line "Deny it! Deny it! Deny it!" (modeled after Marlon Brando's famous STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE line, "Stella! Stella! Stella!") in a Berle-esque voice (Milton Berle, not burlesque)...
It's interesting that these shows were made before the 1966 U.S. Supreme Court case of Miranda v. Arizona. They just haul the suspects in for interrogation while violating their rights under the 5th and 6th amendments of the Constitution. No council present for the defendant's.

Never stand behind a suspect's vehicle while he is still at the wheel.

Sadly, Brod was a hard drinker. He couldn’t drive on public roads for some episodes, because of DUI’s. Had to drive on private roads for many scenes.

ZoneFighter1 Yes, all the old men I knew wore Old Spice. It stinks. They still make Brut. Remember Hi Karate? Now, they want to smell like they wear women's perfume. My late Husband never wore anything but deoderant. He did start using the after shave moisturizer from Avon when I sold Avon. Me, he spoiled me on good perfume. Today,I am picky and when he got me Obsession when it came out, I didn't have the heart to tell him it was too spicy. I wore it, but not often. I finally admitted it was to spicy for me. It smelled like Old Spice to me. haha
Families that prey together, STAY TOGETHER!
All is good with what you say. However, statistics prove otherwise.
The way traffic stops are made has changed in 60 years. First tags would have been called in before officer approached driver. And license registration would have been asked for.and officers never should walk behind said stopped vehicle
And never EVER open your car door when you stop otherwise youll be pumped full of lead now these days
YES! It was WAY,WAY safer for an Officer to pull over a car in the '50s! Hardly anyone owned a GUN!!!!
I’d like to see the episode where Dan chases Amos and Luke McCoy for helping Pepino across the border without a green card and Kate and Hassie are selling alfalfa without a business permit
Ha! No Miranda warnings before Matthews interrogated him.
Very true, Edward Gurea. ALWAYS HAVE 2 POLICEMEN ON PATROL. Always ,also, niether one of them stand behind the suspect's car while he is still at the wheel.
In the '50s there was LESS CONCERN about a cop being shot. Hardly ANYBODY but a Police Officer would have a gun! Kapish?
And the Emmy for worst over-acting by an a actor playing a father goes to...
Chuck Rawlings at first I thought maybe you were being a little harsh. But then I saw the first scene with the dad. I’ll hand you the envelope. Geez, that guy was really bad.😖👎
My father.
wow... he's awful...
Gabriel A. I bet who ever casted that guy lost their job.
Brod wasn't playing a father.
How come the bad guys never have present, or ask for a lawyer when being interrogated by Mathews? Not in the episodes I've seen anyway.
Still don't on the current crop of tv cop shows.
The father sounds like Bill Clinton and the democrats, "deny deny deny it." LOL.
My thoughts EXACTLY. Lie and Deny.
Pat & Steve, your god is documented as the biggest liar in presidential history. Wake up.
BS,Sorry Republicans lie they are the worst

The officer assisting Mathews in the episode appeared as an escaped criminal in "The Manhunt" early episode of The Andy Griffith Show.
He played a lot of criminals, and cops.
Is that a chevy or a jimmy.
That left one unanswered question that Mathews didn’t ask in the office with the Elliot’s, why did the boy reverse the pick up truck into the copper, claiming it was an accident, when I believed it was attempted murder, if not, why did he claim innocence?.
"4th Amendment? We do' nee' no stinking 4th amendment." - " I plead the 5th dimension."
The 5th Dimension was a rock band. The Wedding Bell Blues.
Accessories?
Feel sorry for the father and son they were close but it involved a lot of money.
About like Adam and Eve. He loved her enough to follow her actions and when called on the carpet, "That woman you gave me!" That kind of thing goes a long way back.
@@certoglenn4840 Carpet was not invented yet in when Adam and Eve were around.....
what a pos so called father
thanks for the uploads!!
He played his part well, as Jim Hayward could do. He got you to despise him. :- )
John Boy in trouble
Introducing Jim Hayward in his overacting debut as Charles Elliot in this episode of HP, delivering his most famous line "Deny it! Deny it! Deny it!" (modeled after Marlon Brando's famous STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE line, "Stella! Stella! Stella!") in a Berle-esque voice (Milton Berle, not burlesque)...
And remember. Leave your blood at the Red Cross not on the highway.
It's interesting that these shows were made before the 1966 U.S. Supreme Court case of Miranda v. Arizona. They just haul the suspects in for interrogation while violating their rights under the 5th and 6th amendments of the Constitution. No council present for the defendant's.
Desk sarge was dr in DOA
That truck turned into a two toned pickup wtf?That is not the pickup pulled over in the begining.Hmmph.😮😮
So, the police are going to un-book him? Otherwise he carries an arrest record for the rest of his life.
