Chris Pine's Dad. Robert had a great career, love the guy.

[@RossiterMeets]

It was so great getting to meet him and to interview him. I tried not to talk about Chris too much, since I was trying to focus on his dad, but I’m glad I got to ask him a little bit about Chris Pine. Robert Pine had a lot of really great stories to tell about his life and career. Thank you for commenting!

He was perfect for that role. Great job Mr. Pine

[@RossiterMeets]

Robert Pine really brought that character to life. It really created a balance between Poncherello and Jon. Thank you for commenting!

Best show ever, my favorite show. I watched here on Brazil. I missed this show

[@RossiterMeets]

Really nice! It was so great getting to meet Robert Pine and to interview him. He really was a part of an iconic show. I enjoyed getting to hear him tell his stories. Thank you for commenting!

How in the world have I not commented on this video yet? I love Chips!!!

[@RossiterMeets]

I really enjoyed getting to meet Robert Pine. Glad you got to check it out. I liked getting to ask him about his son Chris Pine, as well. Thank you for commenting!

[@mikeclarke3882]

I remember CHiPs.....Growing up in England the show was staple Saturday night viewing after dinner, and his son Chris is a great actor too. You do get to meet the most interesting people...thanks for sharing.

[@RossiterMeets]

Hi, Mike. Robert Pine is a really great guy and a terrific actor, and his son Chris Pine has done a great job of following in his dad’s footsteps. It was so great getting to meet him and to interview him. Thank you for commenting!

[@gretchenarnold5977]

That was another well done interview. Robert Pine seems to be very likeable. I lived very close to where freeway scenes were done for "CHiPs" and got to watch over my back wall. Your interview brought back fond memories from that show.

[@RossiterMeets]

Thank you, Gretchen! Glad you liked it. Robert Pine is definitely a really great guy. I enjoyed getting to meet him and to interview him. He’s had a really great career. And I liked getting to ask him about his son, Chris Pine. That’s really nice that you got to see the freeway scenes from “CHiPs” being filmed over your back wall. Where we live now my mom could also see the scenes from “CHiPs” being filmed on the freeway, and since you both lived nearby at the time. Glad that my interview with Robert Pine revived great memories for you from that show and that time period. Thank you for commenting!

I've been watching Chips here lately. I like alot of the old shows. Cool video.👍

[@RossiterMeets]

Thank you so much, I really appreciate your encouragement! So many of the classic tv shows are just as good today as they were when they first aired. “CHiPs” is a lot of fun, and Robert Pine’s character was the perfect balance to Ponch and Jon. Thank you so much for commenting. You made my day.

[@loydhenderson6945]

@@RossiterMeets Your most welcome. Glad your out there helping to keep those days alive. I grew up in the 70's and 80's.👍👍

[@RossiterMeets]

@@loydhenderson6945 I was born in the 90s, but I’ve always been a fan of the Golden Age of Hollywood, and classic tv. I really appreciate it when I can meet someone who made those memorable moments happen. Thanks for commenting!

Classic dialogue! I enjoyed getting to meet Robert Pine and to interview him. It was great to hear Mr. Pine’s stories. Thanks for commenting!

I liked the question "did the show inspire people to become cops"? I wanted to move to California when I grew up (I was only 6 in 1977) to become a CHP motorcycle officer, get a water bed, and of course have a trans am, lol. This was my favorite show through the late 70's and into the early 80's before all the cast changes.

[@RossiterMeets]

Shows like “CHiPs” definitely sold the California lifestyle. My mother grew up right near the freeway where most of the scenes were filmed. Even if you didn’t become a highway patrolman, it’s never too late for the waterbed and the trans am. Thank you so much for my nice comment about my question! I really appreciate it.

[@TJ-qz6hr]

He’s no longer Robert Pine, he’s Chris Pines Dad.

[@RossiterMeets]

I understand why you say that, though I think that in a lot of ways he might be okay with being known as Chris Pine’s dad first and foremost. That said, his various roles, including the iconic “CHiPs,” stand out on their own. Thanks for commenting!

Now we are talking 😉😜😉😜😉😜

[@cybervision_1]

Please interview Tina Gayle

[@RossiterMeets]

Yeah, that would be great. If I see her at a show, maybe I’ll be able to! Thanks for commenting!

[@luvyesmusici4886]

Loved Bob Pine on CHIPS. I don’t see the appeal of Chris Pine at all.

[@RossiterMeets]

Glad you liked the interview! Robert Pine has had a really successful career, and it was so great getting to hear him talk about his roles and his work on “CHiPs.” I enjoyed getting to meet him and to interview him. Thanks for commenting!

He seems like a lovely down to earth gentleman. I used to watch Chips with my family, here in Ireland, many years ago. We loved it. Regards from Ireland 🇮🇪 💚

[@RossiterMeets]

@@eleanorryan2750 Really nice! It’s exciting to me that you are watching my show from Ireland. I loved getting to meet Robert Pine and to interview him. He had a lot of really great stories to tell about his life and career. And I enjoyed getting to ask him about his son Chris Pine. “CHiPs” was filmed very close to my home, and it’s still a really popular show whenever it airs. Something for the whole family.
