How many of you remember this show? If you do you're old. I must be old. That being said, while I remember the show, I don't remember actually watching it. What does that mean? I must have Alzheimer's.
A couple of things to note: I believe the opening shot is the same "police academy" shot used in one of the old Charlie's Angels intros. And speaking of C.A., check out a young Kate Jackson in this clip. And finally, a question: the ending "freeze frame" shows all three, rookies "in pursuit." In order for all three of them to have been there it means that one of them had to have been riding in the back seat of the police car. When have you ever seen a third cop riding bitch in the back seat? Imagine the arguments that must have ensued:
"I'm driving."
"Shotgun!! Willie has to ride bitch!"
"Bullshit. I rode bitch last time."
"Too bad, I called it."
"I want to drive."
"Tough shit, I've got the keys. You two need to need to Row Sham Bow for bitch."
"I ain't row sham nothin'. I called shotgun."
"You two suck ass."
Anyway, Happy TST.
I Had a huge crush on the very young and cute Michael Ontkean who later went on to Slapshot fame. Yeah, Kate Jackson played Mike Danko's wife. Yep, I'm old. I loved that show. Thank you for remembering it, Joe.
