My Dad was a lineman back in the day before bucket trucks. Worked all day, nights, on call, and finally got his electrical engineering degree through correspondence courses in the fifties. He made a good home for us through his hard work. He died at age 56, in 1986, and I miss him dearly.
Having a good father is a blessing sounds like your Dad was quite a man. It gives me comfort to know our parents live on through us and our children. Bless you and your family wishing you all the best.
I was so tickled by Dan pretending to be a big oil and cattleman from Texas! He pulls up in his car so the guy could park it for him, hands him some cash and says, "Live!" Cracked me up! LOLOL!!! What a gem!
A massive thank you for uploading all these highway patrol episodes. It's great to see the old cars, motocycles & trucks. Not to mention the glamorous women!

Dan ordering his dinner at 12:18 is awesome! I bet that's what Broderick Crawford really ordered every time he went out to eat, he looked at the menu for like .003 seconds before ordering. This show is such a treasure.

Are the "greatest cops" really able stop the criminal elements, to completely "take it down" so that it could not rise up again ? They do not even put a dent into stopping wrongdoing, for when they close down one place, it just pops up somewhere else. Even when God brought the Global Deluge on the earth in 2370 B.C.E. that wiped out all of mankind except for Noah and his family, this only stopped criminals or corruption for a short while. For not long after the end of the Noachian Flood, perhaps only 40 to 50 years, Noah's grandson Canaan performed some perverted sexual act on his grandfather when he became unintentionally drunk.(Gen 9:20-25) And then not long after this, Canaan's brother, Cush, had a son named Nimrod who "was the first to become a mighty one on the earth. He became a mighty hunter in opposition to Jehovah. That is why there is a saying: “Just like Nimʹrod, a mighty hunter in opposition to Jehovah.”(Gen 10:8, 9; Note: Jehovah is God's personal name) So, even with the greatest cataclysm to hit the earth up till today, corruption arose again, in fact, increased in scope, spreading earthwide, with Nimrod building the first political empire. So, what is the perfect solution to completely removing the criminal element ? What is it that can get rid of the greed, the hate, the treachery, the deception, the lovelessness, the depravity, the slaughter of people, such as by war ? At Psalms 37, it says: "Just a little while longer, and the wicked will be no more; You will look at where they were, and they will not be there. But the meek will possess the earth, and they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace......forever."(Ps 37:10, 11, 29) But how will this be accomplished, since no human government can even begin to do this ? This will be brought about by means of a heavenly government called God's Kingdom, one that Jesus taught his disciples to pray for at Matthew 6:10. Only this government can achieve which no human government or coalition of political governments can (think of the United Nations that has been "all bark and no bite", unable to stop such atrocities as the Israeli / Palestinian conflict). Those who allow themselves to be "taught by Jehovah" and become "meek" (John 6:45), will see the destruction of the wicked ones, for Psalms 37:34 says: "Hope in Jehovah and follow his way, and he will exalt you to take possession of the earth. When the wicked are done away with, you will see it."(see also Matt 5:5)
I remember riding standing up in the seat of a pickup in the early '50s. I would've bounced like a rubber ball had we hit anything in those days. That lineman's truck reminded me of that. How things have changed!
Yeah I remember that in the 50s except it was a bus, and black people were standing up because they weren't allowed a seat. And ironically bounced like a rubber ball had they sat on the wrong one.
I noticed at the end of many of these episodes, Broderick Crawford aka Dan Mathews says "next week's Highway Patrol show is a very unusual one." I guess they were all unusual. I love looking at the cars in these old shows.
Now the Indian casinos have a monopoly on betting and gambling. We have one a hundred yards outside the city limits. Who cares about gambling ? Only the cops and the IRS.
@@epaburke Ha ha, don't I remember those days & using the neighbor's phone to call their neighbor to ask, "if they can go next door to ask if they could hang up their phone because mines is not working" Ha ha...!
Nick Thomas They should have offered Mathews a few free drinks along with a free meal and the promise of another on the house. Then he may have not raided them...
12:15 : " Shrimp cocktail, double steak rare, baked potatoes, cesar salad". Gee, Dan Matthews certainly knows how to order in a fancy restaurant. I like it. At the end, he caught all those vicious criminals. Nobody fools around Dan Matthews.
Well, other than the notable lack of classy '50s dames, this was an excellent one! That Sheriff knew how to win: He called in the heavy artillery. Brod and the Highway Patrol!
In the closing credits, note the name next to audio supervisor: Quinn Martin. If you’re curious, yes, he’s THAT Quinn Martin of such TV shows as The Streets of San Francisco, The Invaders and Barnaby Jones.
I chose to watch this Episode because that Utility Truck looked Kool . I knew a Guy who worked for an FWD Dealer in CA back then FWD had the monopoly on 4x4 Utility trucks back then. His parents were Migrant workers from Mexico .. Franco was the name ..
The screen writers missed a golden opportunity here. At the end where he says "we're not criminals". Instead of saying "Your so wrong, he should have said "wanna bet!" Geez I'm funny 😂
What is cool about these 50's shows is that sometimes they do shoot people. One episode with a trailer, Dan shoots the perp. Dragnet has a lot of shooting. Later shows cut back on it!
That's why I like Gunsmoke. Matt Dillon always went for body mass and with his .44 he was deadly. Read somewhere he killed something like 303 folks and add in the movies the death rate moves up to 407. Billy the Kid, John Wesley Harden and Jesse James had nothing on Matt. 'Scuse me I gotta get outta Dodge.
Seen a similar Highway Patrol episode before with similar script and rain on that club, minus the Sheriff’s department, unsure whether it was before or after this one.
"Dan The Man" living as a big oil executive. Flashin' cash like a rapper. Shrimp cocktail, baked potato, double steak (rare) and Cesar Salad AFTER giving the valet some bucks and telling him to "live" and slipping the maitre' de money to "confirm" his reservation. I could watch a whole film with Dan being the Man!
We had one of these in East Newark,NJ in 1963.After the FBI shut down the operation,the Mayor told the Newark Evening News:"We were going to raid them next week."
If you only knew. You got casinos all up and down the coast on 101.. I remember when I was six years old. Going north on 101 outside of Santa Barbara. My grandfather got pulled over for speeding. He was driving a 59 Ford Galaxy. Highway Patrol pulled woman was driving a old Nash patrol car. This was back in 1960. He let him off with a warning he told the patrol officer it was a brand new car and it wasn't used to it.🤷🏽♂️🤙🏾👌🏽🙏🏽🙋🏽♂️😊😎. And yes I actually remember seeing them patrol cars Bagel cars. We lived in Northern California off of 101. They're all gone but I'm still here. PS we start the higher Patrol. 10-4 2150 out
Now there is Lotto. Or as or as one of my fishing clients say the poor mans tax. He said, it does give the little people hope. But then I looked it up and 80% of the money comes from the poor.
So that SO car was a Nash? I was wondering. Love the gumball light- haven't seen one in ages. Many sheriffs wouldn't go to much effort to enforce gambling laws back then- kudos to him. Now there are many Indian casinos, and most medium size areas have a cardroom or 2. How times have changed. As 1 commenter pointed out, it's because of the revenue the state makes by regulating and taxing it.
It's episodes like these where I'm rooting for the "bad guys". All that former emphasis upon shutting down illegal gambling and yet today 60 years later we've got half a dozen casinos in every town.
But what about "legal" state lotteries? What's the moral justification for those? Beside that, all adults patronizing the casino are doing voluntarily. Looks to me like Dan is in favor of the nanny state.
Kinda hard to maintain the “cops all good / bad guys all bad” fiction with this one. The “bad guys” are Mom and Pop wanting to place a bet. I wonder what Dan would have thought of today's state lotteries? He would still have to arrest the “non-approved” bad guys, for the “crime” of cutting into the state’s revenue. This is a great show, the cars are terrific, and as a 10-year-old kid back in the ‘50s I enjoyed it. But it has a different “look and feel” once you get beyond the “The policeman is your friend” mythology.
The Roman Catholic Church that gave a lot of people all kinds of help was also constantly raided for having Bingo. The Catholic church gave children and adults free education, illegal aliens an immigration number to stay in America, food to eat long before shelters and food pantries became popular. I'm a protestant and did work the bingo at the catholic school my child attended. The Internal Revenue Service sat in the bingo room with his arms folded hoping that wrong serial numbers were distributed so he could close down church bingo. His kid probably got free breakfast, free lunch, and free tuition at Catholic school. Can you imagine somebody like that?
“Nash” has it hands down. One of the ugliest cars ever made! Butt ugly! No, a Edsel looks like a dream compared to the Nash! 🤣🤣🤣 They made Kelvinator washing machines too. Later expired under the AMC name. This series was excellent. 👍👍👍

Broderick Crawford was one of the two greatest TV cops ever, the other was Jack Webb.

Two great actors in this episode (Robert Knight and Robert Patten) that went on to star in multiple episodes of Jack Webb's Dragnet.
It's Robert Knapp.
Never plaied Jack Webb's Dragnet, however, from 1960-1962 Broderick Crawford plaied King of Diamonds.
Elliot Ness knew how to make a raid! Unfortunately, "The Untouchables" did not air until 1959!
Very entertaining TV Show (I can't get enough of watching Crawford). In this episode I was rooting for the gambling organization.

Not to mention that ill-fitting $5 suit.
Was night club guy a Pilot in 12 o clock?
This is the first time I have ever watched an episode of this show, where I was rooting for the “bad guys”.
I actually gambled there, but I don't remember seeing the authorities
Andy?? Why did the sheriff call Dan "Andy"??
He said Sandy
“Al Sandy”
No buffet in the casino ?
On the next Highway Patrol they bust an Asian massage parlor.
Unfortunately they could not read Dan's writing and raided the local telegraph office by mistake.
@2:51 The Police car/s are fitted with a Beacon atop the Roof, (Obviously the color red) they are certainly moving up in the world as looking more like a Modern Police Unit, Oh I made the comment B4 watching, the Police car mentioned is a Sheriffs Office Unit Ha!!! :P] .v (nmcfmf) ..
That phone trouble ruse wouldn't fool my gullible old grandma.
I think I met her. Did she eat or gamble there?
@@johnl5316 both . She ran the phone company too. So she had the problem surrounded. Cheers Mate
Running a casino is a respectable business or we wouldn't have elected one as president.
I'd say the "casino"/USA is doing pretty well.
@@rahkinrah1963 The biggest lie that voters swallow during election campaigns is the the US government should be run as a business. That's propaganda put forth by the nation's billionaire rulers to ensure their own steady profits. The government is not a business and shouldn't be treated like one. -And it's certainly not a casino.
@@uptonight BRILLIANTLY observation
@Liberty Tree no like a reality tv star simp not a senator
@Liberty Tree defecation typical I'm done chumbley
Hurray! Matthews gets the bad guys! Good work everyone. Fast forward to 2024 and get all the bad guys here.
The only victim here is the government not getting their cut (tax).
How is he getting authorizations for search warrants if he keeps coming up empty?
i love these tv cop shows but some of the highway patrol are hard to watch with the picture moving and jumping around
Have another drink. Matthews did.
@@rahkinrah1963 I think Mathews was manning the Camera in a lot of those wobbly shots. Or the camera man was trying to make appear sober.
