I love that show. I remember watching it as a kid. Been watching it again on Hulu. Also been watching Emergency!

Have been watching retrotv as well. I only catch the last 5 minutes of Adam 12.

Been caught Dragnet, The A-Team, and in a moment that felt similar to Christmas Day, saw an episode of Rat Patrol.

It's cheesy, but cool-60's cheesy.

Watched it as a kid. Also Chips. However, in my defense, there were only three channels on the TV back then.

pacman, you're dating yourself. We had 3 channels also, NBC, ABC and CBS - 5 if you counted the 2 UHF channels with sporadic reception. We got cable in 1980. Didn't sleep for 2 weeks because we stayed up watching TV.

Adam 12 is awesome. Spin-off of Dragnet. Got the Dragnet DVD box set--well worth the $$ (although Mrs Teelio scratches her head about it).

I remember liking it back in the day, but then again we only had three channels to choose from.

Well, I liked it better than Hawaii 5-0 and Mannix. I think they were running around the same time.

#7 Yup. I even remember when someone lost the knob for the tuner. We had to use a pair of pliers to change the channel. Once we got cable, I discovered the wonders of Showtime having leotard-clad women with heavy makeup on "exercising" on turntables, and making their "o" faces.

Heck i didn't even have color tv until i was an adult. I used to sell the first movie network (Channel 100) , door to door when i was a teen, it was a great `way to meet girls.
