The Perry Mason episode I watched this morning had a 1957 T-Bird, 1957 Ford Fairlane Retractable Hardtop, 1957 Lincoln Premier Sedan, and a couple of 1957 Chevy Police Cars. They also show many other cars and trucks from the earlier 50's and 1940's driving around.
I also watch Highway Patrol and Route 66 to see the cars (although neither one of them had 200 episodes).
All of these shows can be pretty campy and overacted, but I like seeing the cars when they were new.
Barney Miller. 40+ years later and even though I know all the lines, it's *still* funny to watch. Jack Soo (Yemana) and Steve Landesberg (Dietrich), IMHO, were the funniest characters, followed closely by Ron Glass (Harris).
Most of my faves I was watching when I was I high school in the mid 1980s. I'm thinking maybe channel 11 or 12 out of Dallas was always syndicating them? Maybe channel 7?
