TJ Hooker Intro

[councilglasses]

Man and wig in perfect harmony

[UrgentementeUK]

Captain Sheridan is an alien... !!

[HammerLex77]

@UrgentementeUK ....called John.

[Andyo183]

Heather Locklear ; stunning !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[XMailer9]

man.... the 80's were just amazing !!

[TheBluetoob]

I never remember policewomen looking like that, or wearing a pencil skirt & sexy stiletto pumps as part of the uniform either !

[capricious71]

Damn, they should have made "TJ Hooker - The Motion Picture"

[videozfann]

@capricious71 Now that would be cool. Wonder who would play the cast? Shatner would have to play Hookers dad now though, lol!

[lopsidedbunnybunny]

ah skool boy image of good old policing... :)

[MrLorenzovanmatterho]

This was my favourite version, always loved Shatner throwing himself off stuff

[asscobra1]

no way! captain kirk playing a police officer on the holodeck?

[MrLawman10]

that was,nt bill jumping on that car

[rsturbo240bhp]

i would kill my whole family just to live the 80s again

[haddockman30]

@rsturbo240bhp I am with you there buddy! The 80's were the best decade by far!

[gluserty]

This show was silly, but I like silly!

[Wildfox01]

Heather Locklear was extremely sexy back then and even now, she is still a looker!

[Labzo441]

Shat Happens

[ShaneJoshua1980]

I actually ended up becoming a policeman because of this and all I can say is if only being a police officer was this exciting.

[SwarthySkinnedOne]

@ShaneJoshua1980

Hmmm, yeah,well the police dept knew that Adam-12 was blah and would cut no ice to entice. So they nudged Hollywood to glam them up to create a better bait. Sorry you got tricked in by TJ's Hook(, line, and sink)er.

[RVKATRO]

no.1 Hooker :)))

[AncientHistoryBuff]

wow. today was the first time i ever saw a bit of this show. did this come out in the 1980's?

[Wildfox01]

@AncientHistoryBuff Yes, it did young man!

[HLDATL]

I loved this show and theme music. I still hum it from time to time LOL

[spiderjerusalem100]

Bad....fucking.....ass!

[Clivision]

Officer TJ Hooker will not be made a possumpecker of himself...

[Battlefieldcom384]

1:12 lol almost as exaggerated as the opening of The Walking Dead!

[katerperez]

That's about the coolest fucking thing I have ever seen.

[ZippoMontefiore]

Shatner sure runs a lot in this intro.

[caxtonman]

@ZippoMontefiore .....AND NO SIGN OF WIG MOVEMENT!.... :¬)

[Fanik10]

Capt. Kirk and Mr. Wilhelm on the same show??

[jrc6k2]

why are they always jumping on moving vehicles?

[dukeboy426]

@jrc6k2 duhhhh, standard practice when you're supercop.....

[CreepyNorwegian]

All Shatner's doing is jump on top of various modes of transportation... LOVE IT!

[Ladiespetmansthreat]

Captain Kirk says Freeze scum bags!!!

[themooseisontheloose]

hey look heather locklear before she looked like she'll let anything with a heartbeat feel the inside of her vagina

[pmbear]

Zmed is to Shatner as Robin is to Batman. Must suck to be in the shadow of such Alpha Maleness. X-)

[iamnotdrtran]

@pmbear 80's Heather Locklear in a Batgirl outfit. Yes please.

[spiderjerusalem100]

Such a badass show. At least 2 car chases every episode, a heavy dose of cheese and Shatner can usually knock out a suspect with 1 mighty punch.

[bazzabaz]

It was lucky those American cops did so much "running along walls and leaping onto things" training.

[raith0818]

Hooker's a good cop!

[tjyounglax]

I was born in '82 and because of this show my name is TJ...yup..I'm named after the Shat...

[Bartman954]

Wait a minute, Admiral's Kirk and Paris in the SAME SHOW?

[flichi06]

0:29 I wanna rise & straight my right leg :)

[mgf001]

Bill Shatner=BAMF

[cheapcape]

Fuck cop shows now - overblown garbage! TJ Hooker and other shows were much better and the characters were more likable.

[JerichoDitch2]

that was back when Shatner first started wearing his girdle

[Ave88]

It was airing in France in the mid 90's.. One of my first TV memory. I was mesmerized by Shatner's uncanny ability to always catch the bad guys in the end. Also, Heather was my first crush.

[frements]

heather locklear how much fucking plastic sugerry has she done

[mishim100]

America had crappy police cars in the 80s. Really started using cool model cars from the 90s onwards!

[davehutchinson67]

@mishim100 maybe crappy cards..but at least then cops acted like cops and not the Gestapo...I mean ffaacckkk...police have lost their way.

[mishim100]

"shat" is the past tense of shit. So let me get this: this guy's real-life last name is "Shatner" and his last name in this show is "Hooker"?

[whatisbestinlife]

I count 3 moving vehicles jumped onto, 1 exploding car, 1 car sliding into oil cans, 1 cop car randomly flipping over for no discernible reason, and 3 shots of Heather Locklear in her prime.

Not. Too. Shabby.

[cander0000]

0:46 theeeeeere's someone-on-the-wing.... Some!  thing!

[TacoBellManager]

That police academy didn't teach the rookies how to drive for shit.

[alpacino1974ok]

Where was the ice slide? And surely the titles are wrong, it's not starring William Shatner, it's starring Captain Kirk-as we all thought back then.

If you watch the intro again it's like a whole episode: Some people get out of cars and sort of pose a bit, Kirk runs through the trees like a robot (It's running Jim, but not as we know it!!!) that lou Diamond Philips type guy gets out the shower and Kirk cleverly tackles a plane and gets the bad guys before walking along de-briefing people.

[TheHaloRed]

4 people got ripped off by Priceline.

[kofirefox88]

Wow watching this intro really brings back a lot of memories from the 80s!!! Can not believe the William Shatner now and back then....lol!!!  I used to LOVE watching this show!!!

[watsupzzful]

With out Heather Locklear this series would have failed.

[Fedaykin24]

Look at the Shatner run! The Beauty! The Power! The Grace!

[Vinconex]

@Fedaykin24 Meanwhile his body is going (in a Scottish accent of course) you cant take much more of this Captain!

[shedontanks]

Love it when Zmed does the splits on that fence

[hessdx1]

The Plymouth Grand Fury must have been the most abused 70s/80s police automobile in TV & Film history. I bet Shatner went thru them like Starships !

[moh1612]

Very 1980s with the cheesy car hood jumps haha, can imagine that nowadays

[MarcoXalana]

Hooker... HAHA!

[robbchr]

LAPD still uses this intro for training. Especially Zmed at :25.

[Lazersetcetera]

'Shatner on fire'. The truest comment on Youtube. Well done.

[s4squatch1]

after just watching the intro i decided to work out how fast TJ Hooker was running between those trees. Using various mathematical equations i worked it out at 38.4 mph which is faster than Usain Bolt ! FACT ! 

[originalpickaxe]

Heather Locklear , handcuffs , stockings and susupenders , police hat , whooahh I'm geting carried away......................

[Vinconex]

@originalpickaxe There was a poster of her dressed exactly like that, and whoa it was nice(back then lmao)

[AugustusLarch]

Bill Shatner is quite a sprinter.

[Daz555Daz]

The finest syrup in TV history.

[Bartman954]

At 0:36, I originally thought that Adrian pulled out a Communicator, not a notepad. Could you imagine what he could say: "Starship Enterprise, I think your commanding officer is next to me. However, he is in police uniform and is now refering himself as T.J Hooker."

[vccstudents]

In the freeze frame of Shatner pointing his gun when the title appears on the screen, they should change it to say: "PRICELINE NEGOTIATOR!"

[shadedmuse]

What does LCPD stand for? Liberty City? Grand Theft Auto also has LCPD. what is supose to be NYC-New Jersey area.

[PalCatIN]

@shadedmuse While never spoken during any episode, it stands for L(os angeles) C(ounty) P(olice) D(epartment).

[kd0duj]

T.J. Hooker was my favorite cop show next ADAM-12

[cheapcape]

@kd0duj Yup, great cop shows, beats all the overdone cop shows out now, hands down.

[HUSKY57887]

The best part of this show was Heather.

[Lardawan]

In those happy days cops kicked ass. Today, the talk about their feelings, what a shows these days!

[StarshipMaxima]

Hold on, was that old guy near the end, Admiral Paris??!

[lphifer66]

@StarshipMaxima ...yeah it was him......interesting that this show had three Trek Vets huh???

[seebee077]

One of the best TV shows of the 1980s......Bravo for posting this. William Shatner is the motherfuckin' man! :)

[salvator419]

I could've sworn Heather trips some guy up with her nightstick in the intro, hmmm.

[Rob1992SJA]

@salvator419 Hey there. The babe sure does trip up a villan in the intro, but you have to wait to season 3 for that. This intro is from season 1 & 2. She had just started training and not hit the streets yet. She completes her next level and hits the streets in season 3, so that is when she gets the villan. Hope this helps. Also check out the tv channel Quest. As there showing the first 3 seasons at the moment.

[trekkeruss]

@salvator419 Heather clips the bad guy with her nightstick in the season 3 intro.

[charliebrown71374]

I wonder how many times Shatner hit himself with that club in the intro.

[grimandproper]

Adrian Zmed - the poor man's Travolta...

[jayce79]

A Blast from the past. Wow.

[danning1]

Wouldn't T.J. Hooker have made detective (or higher) by the time he was in his late 40s/early 50s? Oh well, it's just a TV show.

[Rob1992SJA]

@danning1 Hey there. You are right he was indeed a detective, check out the pilot episode. This says he went back to the uniform cause his detective partner got killed, he wanted to sort out America, the best way in in a marked car and uniform.

Hope this helps out your queries. See the first 3 seasons on the channel Quest. Its great stuff, theres nothing like it in todays crappy tv listings.

[James76255]

Heather Locklear still makes me mess my trousers.

[Kalinack]

Sheeyikes! First time I saw this intro since I got hair on my balls, and that young Heather Locklear just made me mess my trousers!

Shatner is a badass running on God's own methane as well.

[Zeeta55]

Ohhh, Heather you, and me, me and you, what, the hell, noooo! Not William, with his buddy from Boston Legal! HAHAHH!!

[nightowl8936]

I used to think Heather Locklear was one of the most beautiful women in the world when I was in high school and used to watch this show. When I see her at 0:53 ... I remember why I thought she was so hot.

[IRON5]

What a name "TJ HOOKER" you could go. So many ways with this name. Tell me that's not Jonhny @0:41 from the T-Birds?

[Polarcupcheck]

Heather Locklear: My first introduction to hot blondes.

[machado420cody]

"im officer tj kooker , sheriff officer tj hooker"

[SgtTJHooker1]

i love the show and the music

[MaSSiVe0101]

This show is awesome! I would watch this every single day!

[20tiger]

it s a shame that shatner got so fat

[RainPoetry]

This looks like a bad SNL skit now, but this was the originator I guess.

[adri2120]

Dale MESSI !!!!!!

[fuckcomments]

tj hooker, master of corny ass free running and vehicle surfing!

[izzyg79]

PRICELINE NEGOTIATOR!!

[texacobigred42]

What season is this intro from?

[JammyDodgerrrrrr]

they cant make good shit like this anymore sheer brilliance :)

[twitchykun]

Heather Locklear, she's gonna be hot forever.

[OptimusPrimeribs]

haha, heather locklear in a police skirt...wow times have changed!

[kwg06516]

So, Captain Kirk, and Captain Sheridan...

that's odd

[bru5520]

Properly done this could return to TV,but it would have to be as faith ful to the original as possible.

[arevaloanthony]

Heather lockheart looks so HOT

[Beatman197]

Hooker's wig also nearly blows off at 1.19.

[MrRambo4]

After finishing working at the Star trek enterprise as Captain Kirk he went to Police Academy And Became TJ Kirk xD

[Jmsadv]

Where's Spock?

[apryl1476]

I used when I was a little girl and a teenager. I loved that show and I got it in my cellphone. You know you gotta love Shatner.

[polotorsten]

Where ist the time???

[kalapaloman]

Hey, that's my ringtone !!!

[SeRGiaHouSeN]

hooker 6 pazzo a korrere kosi t si skoppiano le vene

[seajaybird88]

It would be funny If Wiiiam Shatner pull out a Phaser instead of a gun and Star Trek Coummunicator instead of the CB radio in this series. This was a good 80's cop show, Heather Locklear is hot very sexy, just want to handcuff her and well you know.

[hallucinogen74]

I live in Germany.. I remember in thge past, on each episode I wished William Shatner would say "beam me up Scotty!" .. lol legendary, it has a unique flair that I miss in new series of this kind.. Not only this one.. the 70's and 80's series are the best.. Not only because they remember me in a long gone youth...

[Aaronator19842009]

I remember watching this on TV and I'm keeing an eye out for the TV Series on Region 1 DVD at some point.

I send my best wishes to William Shanter, Richard Herd and Adrian Zmed and I also give a shoutout to Heather Locklear.

T.J. HOOKER IS REAL COOL EIGHTIES COP ACTION!!!!!!

[RvE1985]

It looks like the film Police Academy only in the serieus way

[kranktank]

so...wait...tj hooker...isnt a hooker?

[cheryltweedyismint]

ow this brings back memories of bein a kid, I used to love this show. Still love the intro music

[macewindex]

lolololol at :06. That's right out of the SWAT manual.

[Optio10]

Every time I get in my car I'm going to roll over the hood first. Have to.

[parkay6]

@ jongeric you are crazzzzyyyy!!!! That ish is funny as hell!!!

[suckyamomma30]

Great show.I forgot how cool the intro was at the start aswell!

[kemric]

0:30 "look how I can do the split"

[JonGeric]

KKKHHHHHHAAAAAAAANNNN!!!

[Nighttime1969]

I think shat's wig is coming off as he falls from the explosion!

[oneweirdfellah]

Lol ZMED!  I always thought what a fucked up name for such a pretty guy lol!

[48state]

A very camp Andre Zmed when he leans on the patrol car at 0.38. I remember the TV broadcasters clamping down on violent shows back then as there were shootouts at 6pm viewing. TJ's partner Ramano was shot and TJ then shot the wrong guy, great episode!

[Bettyboop11230]

adrian zemd is so cute

[Mrster]

This show's title would only be better his name was B.J Hooker.

[gcancelado]

perfect hood jumping!

[elswine1978]

my first wet dream as a kid was about heather locklear. she was still hot in scrubs.

[jifkitchen]

anyone know where scene 1.12 comes from? ive looked high and low through the TJ HOOKER series, and cant find it. it might have just been made for th intro, but anyone know?

[Ashworth6]

Richard Herd's wig is even less convincing than Shatner's.

[TristanrulesCSI]

heather locklear is 48

[chicagonigga]

HEATHER LOCKLEAR IS BACK ON MELROSE PLACE TUESDAYS @ 9/8c ON THE CW.

[sparwood8]

Hey she is probably 50'ish but MAN she is still STUNNING!!

[kemric]

sorry forgot the first one:

run and jump on the roff :-D

[kemric]

lol

run to jump on a car

run to jump on a bus

run to jump on the plane....

fascinating screenplay....

[AlanRickmanFan1122]

Lol I can never take Shatner seriously. I love him in Star Trek but that's about it XD

[plyleymatt]

Women don't wear Skirts anymore(as cops) anyone else ever notice that?  I wonder why, and i'm not being sarcastic.

[Carnage1235]

You've gotta love Shatner.

[Gabrielvogel]

yes

[SgtTJHooker1]

ich liebe die Serie kann sie teilweise schon auswendig bin damit gross geworden, weiss jemand ob es schon die zweite Season auf DVD gibt?

[coolvidguy08]

this is on quest now

[dynamicgg]

that's some good hoodjumping!

[KingDT2007]

This show unlike star trek gave us an idea of abuses shatners toupee could take

[PolizeiPaul]

@KingDT2007 Wig??..That was his REAL hair back then XD. Wait..I don't know of him ever having a wig XD..I don't think he wears none to this day.

[machop007]

WOW!

[Gabrielvogel]

Adrian Zmed looks like Harry from Spiderman movies XD

[mykalroze]

You mean Harry looks like Adrian Zmed. :)

[winsonkoh]

El Cuerpo: Ohhh, this is the one with Jerry Lewis...AS HIMSELF! I love this one...

From Nitrous Racing!

[Bennyishere]

I love Nitrous Racing, but I've always found the writing to be dumb, EXCEPT for El Cuerpo. I love that dude.

[MrSteveo80]

I saw this on dvd a couple months back when I rented it of lovefilmand I really enjoyed it.

That Heather Lockwear, she is hot, I would definatley snog her.

The 80's was the best decade for films, t.v shows and music.

Am I glad I grew up in the 80's.

[mykalroze]

Still have no idea why this show was picked up to be a movie. It wasn't that good of a show. OK, fine, it was a bad show, and there are so many other 80s TV shows that could make good movies, MacGyver for instance. I easily see that translating into a solid movie, but if they do make it, hopefully, they don't try to make it some CGI extravaganza.

[analyst2004]

because shatner had to make it as captain kirk somehow

[hobokenplayboy]

Bill Shatner was the only actor who showed up on time and was willing to work under a multitude of conditions. He didn't have any special demands. There were other actors considered for the role of Capt. Kirk, but they had to have certain things guaranteed in their contract. Gene Roddenberry didn't have time for any B.S. Bill also kept his mouth SHUT That's why he was chosen as the Captain.

[Rtmbloo]

wtf?! On night at the roxbury one of the guys says to the cop "what ever you say TJ hooker".

[shadowgovernment1]

neh. ^_^

[shadowgovernment1]

this show rocks! wooow!

[RobinP93]

I used to watch this when I was little :D

[OnkelKiesi]

Kaptain Kirk as Scheriff

[Dylanio21]

Shatner jumps on so many things!

[rmattis100]

@Dylanio21 Wonder if he jumped on Heather Locklear ;)

[iamfondoftmnt]

@Dylanio21 Yes even on your MOM ! :D

[zteller]

LOL, he has Hooker in his name.

[Credithelper75]

William Shatner...thin and able to run...not the bloated booze bag we know today on priceline negoiator!

[Paqui815]

the one from Star Trek was even better!!!.in boston legal he's a little different :-P

[THYCHANIE]

ah yes....Adrian Zmed....the fabulous T-Bird(Grease2)....Good career move......Michele Pfiffer...had no choice...it was her first movie role...but Adrian....c'mon...

[honeye211]

!Fuerza Barcelona! !viva España!

[MAREKGERHARDT]

Heather was in two shows at the time, this and Dynasty. Shatner spent most of the show on the hoods of cars.......

[Mark2756042]

Classic American comedy right there....intentional or not.

I never saw or heard of this 1980s TV series but when i saw Heather Locklear when she was in her 30s thats what i call a very HOT and Beautiful Girl at that time.

I dont think we every had it on TV here in Portugal i would remember.
