Tv Theme Chips (Top Quality)

[forestgreen98]

shit, Buffalo Chips Dried Shit. that was this show

[Britney69ish]

I love this show I wish it would come back on television

[veryslyfox]

Don't you love how every episode featured a 20-car pileup and an exploding gasoline tanker, and yet nobody gets hurt?

[Junkman2000]

@veryslyfox LOL! I left Kentucky and went to California after watching this series for years. Then I became a cop out there. CHP's didn't do half the crap that they showed in the TV show! I still loved the show and even went by the CHP station in the TV series. That was cool.

[fmjjoker2]

How many of you guys used to kick start your bicycle as kids and pretend to ponch and jon....I know I did. KZ-1000 was the coolest police bike ever!!!

[TheITALIANJRZYGUYNNJ]

all time favorite next too starsky and hutch 70s tv ruled and you didnt have too pay for it!! lol lol

[gearboxbreaker]

i loved this show as a kid, but even then i could tell it was fake. cars going like 20 mph on a closed freeway and crashing all crazy. still cool tho.

[TheITALIANJRZYGUYNNJ]

@gearboxbreaker would love too have any one of them cars from the 70;s today not crashed of course! lol lol cars suck today and cost way way more then what they originally should be!

[Pengembarasolo]

It brings back memories :-)

[eqrommel]

I dare you to try and listen and sit still.

[Andyo183]

@eqrommel  Failed after about 20 secs lol

[quietman1k]

This was the era before the implementation of a police state, just look at their gear they are not wearing storm trooper regalia, pleasant times.

[rainbirdeleven]

The best highways accidents ever! Everyday cars and trucks flipping over each other.

[pegasusgold50]

gues i'm just nit-picky, but the character's name was JON.

[Lookeebox]

this was filmed in Los Angeles,Ca and the San Fernando Valley of California , a 1970s Television show "CHIPS" was one of my favorite television shows while I was a teenager guy who grew up in Burbank, Ca. Broadcast district and Motion Picture Industry all around me at that time.

[pjs77ify]

OMG! CHIPS stands for California Highway Interstate Patrol lol

[panasker]

Loved it...from aguy that's BEEN on the show! -Ethan Tudor W.

[anmardany]

wow, 240p it's more better than' 1080p O.o

[taffythesheep]

OMG i so loved this programme as a kid. This and TISWAS were the best programmes on a Saturday morning.

[whycantihavemyownuse]

Chips!!!

[DenEColt]

NCIS LA did an amusing tribute to this show. I have wondered if the show was inspired by Electra Glide in Blue? Iconic motorcycle cop movie.

[jbeautiful38]

So true Earych!

[410missmonkeyful]

which one of them was named Chip??

[Earych]

This was a Sunday night staple. It came on right after Little House on the Prairie. Afterwords was the Jeffersons then it was time for bed.

[2jeremyable]

angel casey

[reklaw78]

they need to put CHiPS on Netflix

[MyFreedomChannel]

@reklaw78 I've been telling Netflix about that for months. They have to deal with the licensing issues & NBC Universal/GE.

[dcmartin11]

Loved the show in the 90's and still do, where are the creative writers nowadays

[peewee2627]

Greatest comedy/drama tv show!!

[oztopgun]

Have to agree with Cassius, plus depends on the recording equipment....lot of really crap recordings going around...ease up JP..

[WeGonLose]

HA!HA!Ponch and Judy.I like that:)

[spadehatesscrewtube]

billy dee williams? lando? really? hmn .. he didn't stand out that much in my mind as far as mustaches are concerned. definite space player though, leia watch out.

what about man at arms? (he-man) he is known as porn-stache. for that matter, what about ron jeremy? that mans gotta be old enough to count in the 70's if not late 60's.

[frrrrrunkis]

@spadehatesscrewtube Billy Dee's got game, which probably added extra mustache points in my mind. Ron Jeremy is a great choice...now that's a pornstache!

[spadehatesscrewtube]

@frrrrrunkis fuck yes.

[spadehatesscrewtube]

erik estrada, like 5th or 6th runner up for best mustache in the 70's if that, even.

[frrrrrunkis]

@spadehatesscrewtube That was the great mustache decade. Not to take away from Erik's mustache, but I wouldn't even put his in the top 10. That's how excellent the mustaches were back then...what I'd give to have my walrus mustache and 14-inch Afro again!

[spadehatesscrewtube]

@frrrrrunkis tom selleck and salvadore dali stand out in my mind. what do you think?

[frrrrrunkis]

@spadehatesscrewtube Great mustaches, but I see Selleck as more of an 80s guy because of Magnum PI. Salvador Dali's mustache is timeless in its greatness. I think a great 70s mustache would definitely be Burt Reynolds, or maybe Billy Dee Williams.

[CBRsix]

class show from my youth, but being a biker myself of all the things on this vid that stands out is, HOLY CRAP did they really ride on those tyres they look like solid rubber of a 1970's push bike.

[kingsarbkota]

Suddenly, I was a wee lad again...

[locsman]

yeah i fucking love it

[KiraJenLove]

That's "Ponch & John", not "Ponch & Judy". You're thinking of the puppets "Punch & Judy".

[hansdussault]

I still whistle that theme song sometimes... :D

[Cantstopthebaddancer]

Wow, even the 1080p seems lacking. But who cares, its CHiPs.

[MadHighway]

God, the late 70s was really, really trashy.

Almost as trashy as now.

[videozfann]

Glory days of tv. Seems like the guest stars on shows in the 70's and 80's really bounced around a lot before some either faded away or got their own show.

[hulm100]

top quality????? TOP MERDA !!!!!!!!

[pelonews]

todos ajustaditos en la ropa, quemusica mas fea

[GoldenLegends100]

The best thing about this show was the opening music - the acting and plots were shite!

[holysinner72]

love this show, i was 12 years old when i die hard fan of this series >

[wzrdryaudiovisual]

This tune fucking rules. Gets me amped up before.

[ghengismaul]

So when's Hollywood gonna make a new modern movie update on CHIPS? Wait a minute (i remember what they did with dukes o hazard , charlie angels , miami vice ! o shit ) - NEVER MIND NEVER MIND HOLLYWOOD - ITS A BAD IDEA - BAD IDEA Dont make a update - shit i gave them ideas - oh no

[tupac1983]

I LOVE THE BEGINING WHEN THEY DROP THAT FUNKY BASS LINE

[giorgos10011]

AΠΙΣΤΕΥΤΟ!!!!!!!!!!

[frrrrrunkis]

Erik Estrada reeks of beans.

[rodian10]

@frrrrrunkis

Hmmm...Do you put on white sheets every once in a while??

[frrrrrunkis]

@rodian10 No, I met him at one of the timeshares he advertised on TV as part of the company's promotion. He actually had a strong odor of beans emanating from him. Quite frankly, I'm rather insulted by your connotations of racism, even more so since I am the president of my city's NAACP chapter.

[rodian10]

@frrrrrunkis Well, since you carelessly dispense comments like that, especially associating "beans with Latinos" reeks of racism! You representing the NAACP & saying garbage like that is very irresponsible & unforgivable, the NAACP would be wise to kick you're ass out!!

[frrrrrunkis]

@rodian10 I'm not lying, I'm not making racial generalizations, I'm not doing anything like that. I just stated a fact that I had noticed in actually meeting the man. I may have commented a little too off the cuff, which has no doubt lead to your presumptions on what kind of person I am. Those presumptions, however, tell a lot more about the kind of person you are rather than myself.

[nfn2000]

love chips! specially because I lived in west la for 8 years. These opening sequence is on 10E and the street chase scenes were mostly done around west LA when it was not that crowded.

[samtranz1]

memories

[Blackhawk680]

ok all women who where in love with Erik Estrada click thumbs up lol :P

[jc080368]

Ah yes, I used to ride around on my Raleigh chopper in a short sleeved shirt pretending I was the blond guy

[WeedVulva]

@jc080368 that blond guy is THE Larry Wilcox, asshole :)

[honeywords]

How greatly thrilling music !

The rythm + melody ....perfect

[v8cool1]

I miss old TV shows where the intro shows an aerial shot of a stripey american freeway.

[rodian10]

I liked CHiPs, but I honestly have 2 things that peeved me with it. For one thing, they never felt the need to use firearms ( I mean they're cops!! WTH??). The other thing was Erik Estrada feeling the need to "hog" all the scenes he was in.

[westholmes2001]

@rodian10 Part of the reason why Erik Estrada felt the need to "hog" all the scenes is that when "CHiPS" became noticed to viewers, people were into his Ponch character. When network execs see that, they want more of it on the show, that is why there was so much of Erik Estrada. This was part of the reason why Larry Wilcox left after Season 5. He felt that his character was less noticed at the time, even though fans appreciated both he and Estrada.

[utrapzab]

@pretendaccount1 the adidas kicks took a pounding, and yes the old ribena carton worked wonders for the authentic motorbike sound

[utrapzab]

@pretendaccount1 blue too, with the obligatory inverted 'u' shape mudgaurds coz you folded them back to rub of the tyres and sound like a motorbike, goddamn will we ever see such halcyon days

[aziz5]

it seems two gays guy LOL

[threesim]

These guys were cool even when they made fun of themelves in the naked gun movie shootout in the hall scene lol

[DrPepperAndSteak]

Brilliant title card.

[milenioscuro]

what's Top Quality ?

[camwent1]

Here's some trivia. When Season 2 started, the theme was updated by Alan Silvestri who has just done the music for the new Captain America movie, Back to the Future, The Mummy, and a whole lot of other movies.

[tknippe]

30 years ago my little cousin was in California, he was about 6 years old and ran into a CHP officer in a restaurant. My little cousin asked the officer if he knew John and Ponch, the officer played along, said he knew them well and my little cousin asked if he would say "hi" to them. The officer said he would tell John and Ponch my little cousin said "hi". I guess you had to be there, it was kinda funny..

[philipjohnhomewood]

im from england,love this shit man top class

[custardaghost]

Awful show. That flubber-whubber Erik Estrada just sweated ego whilst his vanilla partner was instantly forgetable. The bikes were the stars.

[mar28lene]

Great show first saw it 1979-1980 as a teen in Byron Bay

[jeffpat1977]

call this top quality??? Are you still listening to cassette tapes?

[videozfann]

@jeffpat1977 LOL!

[cassius969]

@jeffpat1977 You can only playback as good as it has been recorded.

[wilt2000]

@jeffpat1977 funny loved this show lol!

[Oscuro1987]

@jeffpat1977 Dude this is vintage, respect it.

[oldschooldogy]

@jeffpat1977 Maybe he's still bumping 8 tracks.

[TheQhozt]

@jeffpat1977 THis was uploaded in 2009 dumbass.

[btqy]

@jeffpat1977 No 8 tracks



[ixSTRAFExi]

Wow I used to watch this show all the time as a kid and I just now got why its called CHiPs -__-

[danieljh]

F* George Lopez!!! Erik Estrada was THE man back in the day and would probably flatten Lopez' fat ass to this day.

[DegenXNatioN]

sounds like an old porno song

[studiosound211]

My Dad's cousin played guitar on this.

[IxbExDOiNxH3R]

I used to watch this every morning before I would go to school. That was like 10 yrs ago. Wish I could go back in time and watch it. :'/

[boardskins]

I never realized how gay this is until just now. lol

[jujubees2bees]

LOVED PONCH AND JOHN!! They were "MEN among MEN!" *sigh*

[ljh619]

I miss my childhood ;(

[MultiSurvivor93]

Larry Wilcox is now in jail for stock fraud.

[SRMeadows]

@MultiSurvivor93 Maybe Ponch will bond him out, LOL

[manualLaborer]

best song ever! i threw away all my mp3's for this.

[ashwinbhat123]

hahahahah wow 80's was such a cheesy and corny time, its so bad

[TWFsbeast]

i used to watch this as a kid

[katrinagrrl]

So corny now....TV in the 70's...gotta love it.

[tequilarise5000]

the show sucked monkey balls and was gaaaay

[balser77]

@tequilarise5000 lol id take that gay show anyday over the shit that's on television today.

[DaveinNorthYork]

The two things that I always liked about the opening credits of "CHiPs" was not only the letters "CHP" coming off the shield of the California Highway Patrol (on the motorcycle), but also the theme music that was played at the fadeout sequence as well (somewhat gives me goosebumps).

[utrapzab]

this was the business when i was eight, i used to go out on my raleigh grifter and pretend, these days kids wont know unless they are playing it in a group lobby on line while holding an ak47 and some grenades back then everything was cool, the american shows like this, bmx, VIRGIN star wars and lolo balls, thank christ i was a kid then, even lego is too 'manufactured' thhese days

[TheGuyCalledCarl]

Was ADDICTED to this show when I was a kid. You go Ponch!

[goodkarma33]

PSYCH: Shawn to Guster " Were gonna miss that episode of CHIPS wher the car flips over on the highway!" Guster: "Shawn, a car flips over on every episode"

[Grahampk73]

Those were the days, good clean entertainment. No CGI, a few dodgy effects, loved this show and still enjoy watching it on DVD

[ooi0809]

Omg..i found this series so long ....still remember after dinner i will sit in front of the small tv screen and watching this 2 charming patrol motorcycle officers...:)

[MARIETTI5]

Cool... viva 70's and 80's!!!!

[mistressmeeker]

Poppers. Jock straps and leather.

[Kelly14UK]

[gallupi1965]

Attention all units, CHiPs will return in a moment!

[cfwbdude]

two cop dudes riding on harley kawasakis smiling and doing nothing but looking all cool with shades on...those were the days.

[gta4ishardcore]

watch in 240p for that authentic 80's experience

[MrTas76548]

9 years old when this came out

[SuperstarTheMasked]

@MrTas76548

[darrickcook]

[Scottyadams69]

[firemedic911261]

harleys?? you better reread the gas tank again, those are Kawasaki KZ-900P's and Kawasaki KZ-1000P's..Harley my ass

[mrbeancounter90]

Call that a job!

Riding around highways on a Harley in the sunshine.

Wearing a uniform that would get you into most women's beds.

Being paid USD 25,000 per episode in 1982.

Man, o man

[thegroove2000]

the days when the remote control actually had a cable to connect to the Vid.

[Txboy85A]

Dear idiots at TV Testcard- it's Ponch and JOHN, not Ponch and Judy. Wtf.

[NoiseArtz]

@Txboy85A it was meant as a joke idiot. no wonder, you're from texas

[Txboy85A]

@NoiseArtz Dear NoiseArtz, thank you so much for correcting me. I'm so grateful to have heard from one of America's foremost authorities on the subject of joking. I just adore being called an idiot. By the way the "T" in Texas is capitalized. You're always supposed to capitalize the first letter of any state, county, country... et cetera. Take care.

[ZX71K]

CHiPs - TV opening titles / music don't get any better than this.

[twobit211]

no gridlock, heh heh (i miss the '80's)....

[JDSleeper]

Now that's what I call a theme song. This show was a staple when I was home sick from school as a kid in the early 80s.

[gothatway09]

@JDSleeper Not just the early 80s, I remember CHiPs being rerun on syndicated networks into the early 1990s. This was totally the best TV show to catch in syndicated reruns during the 80s and early 90s, whether sick from school or duing a bored summer day.

[sonyblockbuster]

yeah, that's top quality.

[Hercfan1978]

Ohhh takes me back...I liked...what's that other dudes name? not Ponch the other guy...I like blondes more...like Iolaus...more than Hercules!

[Fanik10]

@Hercfan1978 The other guy is Officer Jonathan "Jon" Baker. 7-MARY-3!!!!

[ATLJumpers]

f-ing sick. Just unreal - what a theme song.

[xwingclass]

funky man

[culverfan]

which episode is this from?

[TheSkuLLcomedyShow]

Bahahaha. Ponch & Judy. Stop it. :)

[SeventiesMania]

Gotta love that disco bass!

[rayalvarado2010]

Looks like a pretty gay show. Glad I was born in the mid 80s.

[MrGorsky]

I wouldn't want to fall off short sleeves.

[Toadphillips]

I remember watching this in the 90's lol

[elchingaoAKAelpalito]

Flashback to the late 70's. Used to like riding my bicycle back then pretending been on a motorcycle just like these. Then made a rider and a motorbike out of a Lego set I had even though there was no simple way around making such a model, because the Lego set was basic and did not cater for such a task but put my imagination at work and hey presto! it worked and it looked just like one of these characters. The intro to this series & tune is unmistakable and the baseline was excellent.

[TheBlackmarketbaby]

Damn that song brings back memories.

[bjroberts65]

I got pulled over by a CHP on the 101 right before i was getting ready to cross the Golden Gate Bridge back in 2004....He got me for speeding and changing lanes without signaling and no seatbelt. I kinda Schmoozed him about the tv show and the tv show Real Stories Of The Highway Patrol, and he only gave me a seatbelt ticket and i got a picture with him, CHP they're alright

[Nsusmetzer]

Put it to a vote:

Thumbs up if you think Maynard is playing,

down if you dont

pretty simple

[areyoureceivingme]

Tune by Corniche, it's ace I reckon. Those were the days...

[TheMasterNo6]

Used to LOVE this as a kid, seeing the intro now it looks so cringe worthy...the musics so baaad. I used to like Ponch as he was dark like me, now looking at him he looks like a right twanny....lol.

[kxmode]

This song was made by Daft Punk.

[TheMasterNo6]

@kxmode LOL no it fucking wasn't.... ;)

[kxmode]

@TheMasterNo6 can we pretend it was? :D

[Aeolis7]

That's Ponch and JON.

[DeWina512]

it not Ponch & Judy it Ponch & John

[enamorada1000veces]

When i was a little girl I see amazing this programa of tv.....que buenas espocas

I remember I used to have a CHiPs toy Motorcycle when I was a young kid!
