Car 54 Where are you? Here we go again full episode

I still laugh from these episodes, today's comedies are no match.

[@davidabney7700]

I always loved this comedy program about a fictitious police precinct in New York City. A squad of NYPD Cops, principally Officers Tootie and Muldoon, supported by a small cast of great comedic actor cops. Nipsey Russell and future Grandpa from the Munster's tv comedy that came several years later. I love the "old time" NYPD cars, the uniforms that male and female cops wore in the late 50's. I started in law enforcement in 1971 and female officers wore a different type uniform than what the male officer wore. In the 1950's the female officers wore a blouse and skirt type uniform with plain black leather female shoes, different from the boots that males wore. The .38 Service Revolvers that were carried by cops all over in those times. Usually a Colt Official Police or a Smith & Wesson Model 10. Both gun models in blue steel finish, fixed sights, and a four-inch barrel wearing wood grips. Most of the large city PD's mirrored the equipment and uniforms that NYPD used. Rural agencies tended to use the .357 magnum as opposed to the .38 Special. Car 54 just made my day, the times I got to see it. Seeing the reruns on KZbin means I can view at my leisure. Getting older ain't no picnic, but viewing those great tv programs of the past makes an old retired cop feel better and reflect on pleasant memories of being a young cop back on the beat again. I appreciate, so much, the posting of the Car 54 series. Nostalgia runs deep with some!

I was a child when this AWESOME show was on. On DECEMBER 24,1963, Idlewild was renamed JFK. My family traveled quite a bit. About 20yrs or more, my sis & I going to our basement found some Jurassic items & 1 of em was a luggage tag with both Pan Am & Idlewild. We asked some people where it was, surprise, lol.

His parents were upper middle class in NY, and sent him to a very exclusive Fraser-ish prep school that only accepted a very limited number each year!! That prepared him for harvard! During his college career, he was involved in the theater there and they affectionately called their university theater The Pudding!! Since only men went there, fred di both male and female roles in the productions!! He did the book About the chocolate moose!!

My all-time favorite episode of Car 54, Where Are You? Unfortunately, as was typical in this era, some guest stars were left uncredited in the closing titles, but deserve recognition. According to the Internet Movie Database, the other guest actors were: Alan Manson as gang leader William “Baby Face” Gordon; Al Nesor as Harry “The Hawk” Carson (“I got the layout”); Walter Kinsella as the Guard; Judith Lowry as old Trixie LaTouche; and Amelia Darling as young Trixie LaTouche.

Fred Gwynne guest-starred a couple times on " The Phil Silvers Show" several years earlier. That's probably why Nat Hiken chose him for "Car 54...", since he created both shows. Incidentally, when Toody attempts his fast draw, the TV is showing the opening to "Have Gun, Will Travel".
