I watched some episodes of Policewoman when it was running... didn't do a lot for me. I never could figure out why Makeup never could do anything with Angie Dickinson's hair... she had the worse hair on TV for many years.
@Grepple1234 It did. Actually, the first season was quite good.
But the '70s feminists descended on the show as Season 2 commenced, upset with the "sexy" angle on the character, and they did in the show with the network --- as a result, Angie became suppressed and so subsequent seasons weren't quite the same.
During the late 60s and early 70s, cop shows like Policewoman, Hawaii 5-0, The Streets of San Francisco, etc, showed how life on the streets really was. So realistic! Now TV land is reeking with reality shows!! WTF!
Angie Dickinson was in her mid/late forties when she made this series and looking beautiful. Prior to the 1990's male/female actors were considered believeable being newlyweds,new parents etc in their late forties. Now,studios do not give new shows/remakes any time to succeed rather assume failure before many viewers realize when the program airs. Hence the reason we are all having to buy these DVD sets from 60's & 70's good TV. Thnx for the vid:)
@MsTexas73 Personally, I would rather see SHOUT! Factory Releasing the rest of the series as well as a re-editing of Season 1 since SONY Pictures, IMO is doin' a lousy job and plus, @ least we don't have to worry about those plastering logos either
Ok, the reason I ask is because I've seen and pretty much know all the eps and that line doesn't ring a bell. So NOW that it bothers me I'll have to look for it.
My favourite moment from Police Woman was when she gets kidnapped by two robbers and she says to one of them, "When was the last time you were in the same room as soap and water"...
@MsTexas73 I'm sorry I haven't a clue. All I remember is that I think she is kidnapped by a couple of bank robbers and one of them is quite a dirty smelly looking bloke and he asks her a question to which she gives that reply. I was probably only about 12 at the time so it's a long time ago.
Great to see Jayne Kennedy in this clip. She had an announcing stint with CBS sports and made some B movies with her husband Leon Issac Kennedy. She also did a spread in Playboy back in the early 80's that helped get me through puberty!
@HeavyDutyBear Thank you for your post...RIGHT ON! I was a very little girl in the 70s, but I vividly remember watchign Police Woman with my Gram. It was one of her favorite shows (she LOVES police dramas) Pepper Anderson was a koo role model for litle girls. She was not only beautiful, but intelligent. She knew a lot of things about A LOT of things.
@yourunclehank1 Yep they sure do, Ellen could easily pass as Angie's daughter. A friend once told me to get this movie, This Boy's Life...mistakenly telling me Angie was in it. And I'm like, "No, I don't thinik that's Angie in that." Cuz Angie fan that I am I know just about all of her movies. Then it dawned on me that I had said movie at home and I remembered it was Ellen Barkin in it.
My Mom was buried 22 years ago today and in remembrance I was going through all the TV intros of shows she loved and this was one of em. This show helps me bring her memory back a lot
when i was a little girl, i wanted to be pepper when i grew up. that or the bionic woman. i do think we had better role models when i was little. we had pepper, jaime summers, wonder woman, even charlie's angels. these were women who were tough and self sufficient. now, girls have britney spears, etc. i think we got the better end of the deal.
@tranurse i totally agree i also wanted to be like jaime sommers orone of charlie`s angels.todays idols are either on drugs or having mental breakdowns not good for todays teens.
@foxyloxyloxy While we definitely got the better end of the deal and MORE role models...I think there are a FEW of them today...Olivia Benson is one. While her love life sucks...she's one hell of a cop. Also on #SVU, Melinda Warner is nothing to overlook. and there are a few other positive female characters out right now. Hawthorne comes to mind. The issue is that MOST kids don't watch those shows...by most, I mean a majority. But yeah...we totally had more positive female images.
@tranurse Thats what I tell myself as well. Even the male characters on tv had much better morales then today, I mean I watched tv and was a young kid in the early eighties. I mean we talk about how much society has progressed in 2011. progressed to what garbage (Real Housewives, The Bachelor, Lifetime network, Ultimate Fighting Champion,).
@MsTexas73 Hi Ms Texas check out some of my favorites ! They are mostly Japanese tv shows and you might have a hard time understanding it but you will see strong sufficient woman's role that occcured around the same time as PoliceWoman.
No...Jayne Kennedy is the BLACK WOMAN with the Long hair that you see in the teaser before the opening credits. She was the guest star of this episode...she was a well known model/actress in the 70s and 80s.
