      The writer Stirling Silliphant, who also created the disaster genre with Poseidon Adventure and Towering Inferno, as well as writing the groundbreaking "In the Heat of the Night", had a lot of respect for the medium of television, and made the effort to create interesting premises and write good stories and dialogue. He wrote a dozen episodes for Alfred Hitchcock Presents, conceived and wrote for Naked City. In modern times, he'd likely be "Showrunner", rather than "just" a writer.

    Route 66 is part of some of my earliest tv memories,--I was born in 1957. This was the first episode I've watched since reruns in the late 1960s. Milner & Maharis made a good team. Very cool show!

    I recall this series being on TV, when I was just a little kid. Really, all I remembered was the theme music. It was made at a time when the open road meant a call to adventure. It was a sensation that lasted all through the 60's and 70's. It was in the mid and late 70's, when I did my own hitchhiking all over the country. I met a lot of folks who were on their own journeys of discovery. It all seemed to die though, sometime in the 80's. Maybe, the world just got too crowded---too many rules, too many restrictions, too much fear. The open road no longer offered escape. Today, there are over twice as many people, as back then. Even in the remotest of locations, there is no longer respite from the crush of humanity.

Right now we are on a one week detour in southern New Mexico before we return to Route 66 in Santa Rosa where left 66. Other detours will be in Colorado, Utah, and Arizona, but we're doing the whole route before returning via Nevada, Wyoming , and other northern states, then back to Ohio. I may end up watching all of the episodes before we get home. I've enjoyed it so far.

    1960! This was a state of the art, Friday night, number one tv show for years. One of the best thing about this first episode is the number of character actors getting their start in this one! George Kennedy, Kier Duela, whit bissel ! These character actors and many of the townspeople spent their entire careers doing jobs just like this in tv shows from the 50s to the 70s...never big stars and always in the background. Fun watch.

When I grew up and got my license I got an MGB and drove that around the country. I took about two years and had a ball. All these little towns across America have something to offer. Most of them haven't changed much in 50 years. And I also dig that theme music.

    Love the screeching tires in the dirt...LOL... This TV series brings back soooo many fond memories of spending the time with my grandpa and my uncle watching this show. I was just 5 years old when it came on. My uncle was about 12 years older than me and when he got old enough to drive he took me with him to all the hot rod hang outs with his friends. Some of the "GREATEST" times of my childhood, watching the street racing, hanging at the drive ins eating cheese burgers, fries and drinking the good ole' Cherry Cokes. Those times through the 60s and early 70s were the best. When I turned 17, me and a friend hitch hiked all along Route 66 twice. Clear from Columbus Ohio to Santa Monica California. If I remember correctly, we had to pick up Route 66 somewhere around Chicago. We met some fantastic people I remember to this day.

    This show was a little before my time. I was born in September '58 so consequently I don't recall ever seeing it (or even reruns) back in the day. I finally saw this episode today (better late than never right?) and frankly am amazed at how well it has held up over time for being 60 years old! Some of lines were laughably cliched of course but for the most part I'd rate this show higher than 75 percent (at least) than the stuff on TV today. Plus maybe I've turned into a cornball as I grow longer in the tooth but one thing I really miss is the kind of earnest wholesomeness that many of these shows had.

    Never seen the pilot before & it's the only time Tod & Buz were in a '60 Corvette.
    So used to seeing them in a '61 & 62 Corvette. The closest I came in real life was driving
    a '56 Buick Convertible in 1981 from Seattle, Wa to Newport Beach Ca. round trip.
    On my way back i had engine trouble it was overheating so I pulled into a small town
    to get the radiator re-cored & flushed.
    Martin Milner & George Maharis must've had a ball doing this show cruising in a Corvette.
    My dream is to drive all over Route 66 in a classic car & just be a rolling stone.
    I'm sure this show had a lot to do with popularizing the Corvette to be the iconic sports car.
