What Emmanuelle Movie Did You Just Watch?

[V]

POLICE SQUAD!

IN COLOR

That always cracked me up.

Prepare your mind for blowing.

Shit! I used to watch that show! Never has a wheelchair been so badass.

[I_Cassini]

Loved Ironsides. That was back in the day when I watched Cannon, Mannix, Barnaby Jones, and Switch.

[Ed Hocken]

Was Cannon ever a badass? Was it even possible to take a man the size of Robert Conrad seriously?

[Timothy225]

Ah, the Quinn-Martin age of television! 'Course, you kids today with your CSI, NCIS, and so on... what? What do YOU know of good crime drama? You have The Good Wife, we had McMillan and Wife! WE HAD McCLOUD!

ETA: WILLIAM Conrad used to do the narration for The Rocky & Bullwinkle Show, as well as starring in Cannon. I'd follow that SOB to the gates of Hell if he asked!

McCloud was the shit...

Ah, the Quinn-Martin age of television! 'Course, you kids today with your CSI, NCIS, and so on... what? What do YOU know of good crime drama? You have The Good Wife, we had McMillan and Wife! WE HAD McCLOUD!

that was Sunday night television Tim!

And Ed- Once Cannon caught a criminal by taking his belly and bumping the guy into a pool. Badass Belly Bump!

William Conrad hit his stride with this...

[Timothy225]

Ah, Sunday nights. Used to watch the Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries, followed by the ABC/CBS/NBC Sunday Night Movie. Or bed, as I was a kid back in those days.

Cannon belly bump FTW!

William Conrad was also the voice of the Lone Ranger on the Saturday Morning 'Tarzan/Lone Ranger/Zorro' thing. Man was that awesome.

[V]

For Ed... and his 'Conrad Confusion'.

[Timothy225]

Didn't realize that, Matt, but nice bit o' trivia!

[Ed Hocken]

My apologies for the Conrad confusion.

More importantly there was only one large man who owned as a live-action detective.



I'm talking about Fitz here

Obviously I thought this was bad ass back in 1995

My favorite random "Seinfeld" line, when George suggested he and Jerry jump and roll out of a moving car, Jerry says, "Jump out of a moving car? What are you - Mannix?" I LULZ'd!
