How times change! Gage and DeSoto rescue a child locked in a hot car at a shopping plaza who’s been trapped for an hour unattended.

They get him out and he seems to be okay thankfully and the child’s mom comes running out from a hair salon not to thank them but to berate them for breaking into her car without permission.

I was SURE they would call a cop to arrest her and take the kid but nope! They hand the boy back and apologize and go on their merry way.

1973, BABY!! 😱 #Emergency #RetroTV

Is there anyone on fedi that repairs or is interested in old TVs?

I have an old Ferguson fault diagnosis pocket book for the TX90 & TX100 chassis. I'm happy to post it to anyone that could get use out of it.

Boosts appreciated.

They drink A LOT of coffee on #Emergency. No joke. Between Brackett, DeSoto, Gage, Chet, Dixie, Dr Early and the rest they keep the entire columbian coffee syndicate in spades. #RetroTV

Just crazy the stars you run into when watching old TV shows like #Emergency.

She’s only on screen for like a minute and her appearance in S2 E10 ‘Dinner Date’ is uncredited but this is a very very young Melissa Gilbert.

It might be her very first TV appearance, I’m not sure. This was in 1972, two years before the premiere of Little House on the Prairie in ‘74. I almost missed her completely! #RetroTV

27 years ago today, Fox ended the most unhinged, chaotic soap opera to ever grace prime-time TV: Melrose Place.

Before streaming, we had to wait an entire week just to see who was blowing up the apartment complex next.

Let’s settle this right now: Who was the absolute best villain in the show, and why is it Kimberly? 👇

One of the more harrowing rescues from S2 of Emergency! Guy was being chased by police and went over a freeway overpass and became trapped, sustained head injury. Pretty great, realistic rescue too, the show continues to impress me. #Emergency #RetroTV

Another #StarTrek alum makes an appearance on #Emergency S2 E5, this time it’s William Campbell from Trek TOS, better known as Trelayne from The Squire of Gothos. 🖖

Campbell plays a drunk driver who plows into a little seven year old girl and puts her in critical condition for most of the episode. Despicable doesn’t do his performance justice. Of course this is #RetroTV and she finally recovers in the end thank goodness. 🙏

Ich hab neulich eine Überschrift gelesen in der Art: "Mit 15 Std Arbeit/pro Woche könnte man heutzutage den Lebensstandard der 70er Jahre locker erreichen". Faszinierend.

Schaue jetzt zur Recherche die 70er TV Serie 'Drei Damen vom Grill'

Die dargestellte Lebensqualität ist seltsam fesselnd. Man denkt sofort, reicht doch irgendwie auch.

Nur der (ebenfalls authentische) blatante Sexismus der Serie ist schwer zu ertragen.
Früher war eben nich alles besser.
