Martin Milner, aka Officer Pete Malloy of Adam-12 fame, died today at 83. I grew up watching Adam-12 and remember his character fondly. Time to "see the Man", Martin.
I saw this on FB. Adam-12 was one of my favorite shows when I was growing up...and I seem to recall he was in Emergency! as well.
1 Adam 12, 1 Adam 12, there is a dog in the street at bravo and kilo.
Hadn't thought about this show is years.
That was a Mark VII production, Jack Webb.
Yea, and old reruns of Route 66.
Saw that in the news. I grew up on those shows. Dragnet, Adam-12, Emergency!. I thought the cross-overs where Reed and Malloy would show up in an episode of Emergency! were a hoot. The guest stars that became big names in Hollywood were a kick. Same thing for the guests on Star Trek.
Dragnet and Adam-12 with their represented values would probably be deemed 'preachy' in today's world.
RIP Martin Milner.

Adam 12 was the reason I wanted to become a police officer. That and SWAT! I recently saw some of the old shows I watched as a kid; SWAT, Police Woman, Starsky and Hutch, The Recruits (all cop shows) and while they would be considered cheeky now, they really influenced me.
