I was a grade 8 or 9 student at St. John's High School, and CBC put a bunch of us in a classroom where Steinberg was talking to us about the old days. The thing was, most of us had no clue who this guy was, and as a result, It ended up on the editing floor and never made it in to this show.

He ought to have a street in Winnipeg named after him!

The really amazing thing is that the guy just drove up with a camera man and walk into somebody's yard, opened their garage, and walked around. Nobody called the cops.

Not really all that amazing. They will have spoken to the owners first for permission. That’s how TV/movie production works. It seems like they’re making it up as they go along, but that’s the point. 😉

@@kellyparker5162 It was 1971. It probably happened exactly like it was shown. People weren't as paranoid back then.

Driving in a classic challenger convertible. This clip is just dripping with nostalgia for anyone who grew up here in the 70's.

Mod Squad's Link had a '71 Challenger 340 convertible in banana yellow. There were only 2 of it's kind ever built just for the tv show, the front bumper grill and lights & rear tail and lights were from the yet unreleased '72 version. I still want that car as much as I did as a kid. Speaking of 1972, Crockett's black & cream interior '72 Ferrari Daytona Spyder 365 GTS/4 replica from the first season of Miami Vice was pretty sweet too.

I lived across from Oscars in 1978-9. Ate daily lunches. Best! Born on Burrows and Main 1970-80 then we thankfully moved too Vancouver

Didn’t this location burn down, and subsequently moved elsewhere on Main Street (in a building that burned down this past weekend)?

AND the house is still there. Had a few renos since then....the neighbour to the east is still green though. Some things never change.

He sure reminds me of Martin Short in that basketball scene. They did The David Steinberg show together years later and I suspect Short was influenced by Steinberg a fair amount. Great to see this!

Neat stuff, that house I think is gone now, much different looking one in place unless it had a huge reno done. People hate CBC but just look at this. I especially love seeing the north end way back since I live in it.

I tell ya, that neighborhood looked a whole lot better back then than it does now!

@ll7868 6 ай бұрын

It actually looks pretty much the same as it did then, most of the houses have been updated and renovated but still look more or less the same, that house in particular was 248 Atlantic Ave. it's had a few renovations and upgrades and there's a tree in the front yard now. It's about a block West of Main St. & 3 blocks South of Inkster Blvd. My uncle Darrel has lived near Lansdowne & Salter since Gretzky played for the Blues in 1996, about 4 blocks from there, it's an average, middle class, blue collar neighbourhood. Same trees up and down the street too, just bigger.
