More I watch this series, more I love it ! Thanks a lot for sharing this. It's really a gift. By the way, they knew how to manage an epidmic in this time... Lol
Martin Milner was a child actor as well. As I remember he was in a very good movie called “ Life With Father “ as one of 4 sons in a New York family in the 1890s. Elizabeth Taylor was in it as well.
In retrospect I see R66 had much better scripts than the other shows I was watching as a teenager. This one has a pretty strong Tennessee Williams flavor, especially in the Mama's character and speeches.
You guys did a fantastic job archiving these shows! Thanks a million. they just don't make em like they used to. Not sure but I think the car makes a third vital character in my book, love it!
@@michaelwertzy9808 As I recall, Corvette didn't introduce the Sting Ray until well after the first R66 season. I think this was the production model the same year as season one.
@@michaelwertzy9808 Two different Corvettes were used in this series, IIRC. The earlier episodes used this 1960 Corvette with the unusual wire wheels. Then in later episodes there was a Sting Ray convertible. Supposedly the 1st car was a gift from Todd's father. Not sure how he was able to afford the replacement working all those odd jobs he worked.
@@howardkerr8174 The 1960 was used only in episode 1 (Black November). Checkout the tail lights. Starting in episode 2, a 1961 was used and the change was never explained to the viewers (nor even mentioned). I think this non-acknowledgement carried over since Route 66 saw the appearance of the newest model year Corvette at the beginning of seasons 2. 3 and 4 also.
@@danielmchenry1000 Thank you!! Yes, I agree with you, some episodes do tear at my heart as well. " Some how it always gets to be tommorow", with the brother and sister running away at the end, just gets to me, and the one where George tries to find his Mother, I can't think of the title, but it tears at my heart. There are so many great episodes. I'd rather watch these in reruns instead of most of the current choices🤔😒 Remember Naked City, Mr. Lucky and Peter Gunn? I grew up watching them too. They all had some great music as well!!😎🌟💯🎶🎶
Terrific actress. Incredibly I do not believe she was even 16 years old when this episode was made in 1960. So sad what happened to her. Wonder if they ever found the car that hit her?
I was just a kid back then, but I remember Buzz holding the jacket with one cool finger and one episode "Eleven the Hard Way" with veteran character actor Edward Andrews. Obviously at age four when this aired I only remembered cartoons-maybe
I remember this series when I was real young. That was one badass car until the Schwinn Stingray came out one badass quealy popping back if you didn't go to and fall on your ass. And that song was badass to you. Attitude attitude attitude. The good times dammit where to go.👍🏽✋🏽✌🏽🙋🏽♂️😊.
I just saw a later episode with Glenn Corbett. and he's not bad, but George Maharis was just the perfect partner for Martin Milner. Milner was basically the Harrison Ford of his time (even before the show)! He's cool and sarcastic and laid back and underplayed. By contrast, Buz is all passion and impulse and energy and he's supposed to be the "tough guy", which never feels quite on point between them. But they were SO great together! Equal in every way, but very different. Glenn Corbett was your standard TV leading man, Maharis was always surprising and fun. It was an unexpected entertaining relief to get back to Buz with this episode!
The sexy dancer in this is played by Elizabeth Macrae who later in the 1960’s got a role she became much more famous for playing Lou Anne Pouvee in “Gomer Pyle USMC”. Sadly she died a couple of months ago this year. Overall, “Route 66” was a very entertaining television show.
David, you're mistaken friend. The Huey P Long in the connects the Westbank "Bridge City" to the Eastbank city of "Harahan" and it was two lanes headed one way with a train track in the middle and two lanes in the opposite direction on the other side of the train track. This bridge is the recently (in 1960) finished New Orleans Bridge. I used this bridge when I was living in "Algiers" on the Westbank to get to the French Quarters to play music until 1973 or so.
The unquestioning compliance of Murdoch in taking the "jab" is one of the scariest scenes in this episode. It undercuts the entire narrative that casts him and Stiles as "unconventional" characters.
What about precaution, doctor? Or you’re being a hero walking around naked to the teeth of fatal disease? 🤦🏻♀️ And my, that bed sure looked creepy at night. 😳
Does anyone know the Route 66 episode with the story line about an aging dancer still trying to be a star? Was it set in a mining town, or is that a different episode. Thanks.
In what universe was it okay for two guys to take a young girl to a strip club when they promised to take her to dinner? Tod and Buz aren't really clean-cut guys, and aren't even always nice guys. They are usually morally good men who try to do the right thing, but they are seriously flawed. I think that's the intrigue of this show.
You can find Lance of Straw, though the quality of the recording isn't the best. I couldn't find Man on the Monkey Board, though I spent some time looking
This particular episode has an extremely poor script. It's much ado about nothing. Plenty of lowlife characters, though. Overall, a rather annoying, tedious yarn. The bit with the $4,500 in the stolen purse is hilarious. Not all of the episodes can be top-noch, obviously.
Roude 66 these 2 guys are brilliant love watching them xxx
they were some cool cats
Love seeing these beautiful 60s women
Thx

That was before Trump duped the high school dropouts into his cult of science deniers.
@Roger Maes Both points taken and seconded.
I remember this show as a kid. Such great writing! The music is amazing as each episode different with guest actors each episode. 😊
• 1961 Chevrolet Corvette with luggage rack . Ready to travel 😊👌
i love this show when i was a kid .. Jack Kerouac " on the road"
Yeah I know what you mean but this is sort of the Boy Scout version.
+Louis Lorenzi-Prince Yes. I guess Jack used to tell everyone that the show was stolen from 'On the Road.' Poor Jack, he drank himself to death.
@@gregnewsom447 Todd and Buz aren't dharma bums. They're just bums.
Good episode! I really enjoy watching these shows. I knew of Martin Milner from the Adam 12 shows.
Martin Milner was a child actor as well. As I remember he was in a very good movie called “ Life With Father “ as one of 4 sons in a New York family in the 1890s. Elizabeth Taylor was in it as well.

Sterling Silliphant would go on to write for many cop shows (Naked City for one) as well as several movies. I forgot to notice if he wrote this one.
i like the episode. route 66 was a cool show.
Amazing to see how utterly poor New Orleans and Louisina was back then, in 1960. The palce is not exactly the cat's miaw even in late 2023.
No but less
Crime here back
Then that’s for sure
Good episode. Thank you for uploading.

You're welcome.

Just about the COOLEST TV series ever!!
I bet corvette sales went up when this show was on .
@Bill Huber - They did indeed. Chevrolet was a sponsor.
Pffft hmmmph pfffft hmmmph
@jamescalifornia2964 thanks Captain Obvious
I use to watch this on our old la Gloria mono Television on ugly round steel legs,wow was only 11 or 12 yrs old then.
Too bad. You shouldn't have been exposed to these kinds of depraved fairy tales at such a young age.

Jack Kerouac meets Tennessee Williams...
Well, that's one way of understanding the entire series of depraved anti-White fairy tales.
Zina is so beautiful!
Zina Bethune. Yes, she certainly was.
As I recall, she was a trained ballet dancer. She was killed by crossing the street.
At 38:55 I think the actor with Henry Hull was the Russian Police Officer in “ Fiddler on the Roof @!

The Opening scene is the Huey P. Long Bridge Crossing the Mississippi River and gliding into the Big Easy From the Southwest......

Thanks For The Correction Boo!!!
The plot of this one was relatively complicated. But enjoyable.
I cross that bridge all the time
Went across it back in June of 1970 on a two week family vacation 🛣 to New Orleans....🎭
I traveled out of high school in 67 across the country stopping by New Orleans.
BIRD FLU..
HUH!!!!
DIDN'T THAT HAPPEN AGAIN 🐦MANY YEARS LATER
Murray Hamilton was pretty good in this. I saw him in a movie with James Stuart . "the FBI story".
This episode starts out real Fine !!
Still-to this day-George Maharis-bringing Buzz to TV-is by far the coolest character on TV.
I was disappointed to find out he was Gay.
harrisbw49 Buzz Murdock was my love as a young girl. Had a sweet puppy once, named him Murdock.
harrisbw49 And the Theme Song. Been my favorite for 56 years now...Will always be my favorite.
Wouldn't be the same show without him

An relevant episode for contemporary times?

Well, burning that bed in the end made a good point symbolically but the headboard was a beautiful thing and I hated that it would be destroyed.
the whole place is shaking. ok now.✓

Gosto muito da serie mais pena que não é dulblado
Excelente sería ésta serie en traducción español latino.
How about an all captions channel?
I see the famous actor Henry Hull at 6:00.
And the health department agent is Mrs Robinson's husband from The Graduate (Murray Hamilton).
It is Miss Poovee
i do not see Miss Poovee unless it is a diff Miss Poovee I always think of Lou Anne Poovee from GOMER PYLE USMC
