    Reminds me when I was a kid in LA in the 50s. They were truck gardens and fields every where and lots of oil wells.

      They seemed to shrug off drunk driving. Im sure there were MANY potential deadly accidents caused by drunk drivers back then… so I wonder when it finally dawned on society to make it illegal to drive under the influence.

    Juries sure seemed to have a BIG problem with recommending the death penalty when peace officers were murdered in cold blood.

    14.31 for all those who want to hear "Pismo Beach & clams" as repeated in Dragnet (The Bookie) and Adam 12 (Easy Bare Rider). Dozens of actors and stories would be reprised during Dragnet (TV Series) and occasionally on Adam 12. Jack Webb was "the King of frugality." A minimalist who wasted nothing!

    Footsteps sound in office, while on roadside? Where did the door cone from? 😁😁

      Yes, the footstep sounds could have been improved …. especially since they used the sound effect so often.
