Watching this video making my heart fast beating , all the wonderful time of my childhood is marching in front of me, and Mod Squad is part of my childhood favorite TV show when i was a kid in Vietnam...This was the golden time of American TV show globally. Too bad , it only came once .
Julie, Linc and Pete- I loved this show. I barely remember anything but I do remember being horrified to see Linc get shot and fall backward in slow motion one episode.
@SIGNALSTAT Right!!! They were all pretty righteous dudes and they worked beautifully together. I wish they would produce unified programming like this where there isn't the token mentality & where folks would just focus on talent rather than being worried about what the rest of the f**cktards thought. They have screwed so much up & caused so much division that it hurts everyone.
How on earth could running through puddles of water at night be so exciting? It's the music. The fabulous Quincy Jones score and orchestration by (?). As I recall, the show itself wasn't so exciting. But, that incredible theme...
I remember watching this as a kid. Born in 1967 I must hast have been about four or five. Never picked up on the plot though. What where they hippy cops or somthing?
@godsgiftowomen44 The plot was using young kids that were in trouble with the law to work on cases that they could easily be undercover and help solve. Great when it was out originally but very dated and juvenile watching episodes of it now.
@MidnhtCrzr Oh me too! How funny that we are in the same age group. I remember the original episodes. This was really good television! The music had such an energy& power and you took it seriously. Not like today. We're fortunate if the intro songs last 5 seconds any more.
Why do so many posters feed these idiot trolls that always make an appearance? An internet TROLL wants to get a reaction by posting something inflammatory, or ridiculous, or counter to what everyone else posts. Yet time & time again, someone chimes in w/: "You're a (fill-in-the-blank), for writing such & such about this video/topic/whateva"! That becomes more annoying than the initial TROLL comment!
@KennyThrusts You are so right, but sometimes, it is like an itch that must be scratched. But we have got to take our control back over such nimrods. I am guilty for feeding on such scum bags. I'll try to think twice about it myself. That is why I must switch it on to safety mode when seeking You Tube entertainment. Thank you ;-)
one of my favorite episodes involved the taking over of a college campus by protesters; in the process, an old lady teacher dies... haven't seen it since, so i'm sketchy, but the scene where julie discovers she's passed has always stayed with me. (btw, i was the only kid on the block who was allowed to watch the show. the other parents had deemed it "too adult." i guess my parents were liberal or apathetic.)
@jimmysudar The episode is called "A Short Course in War" and you are right, it is one of the best and most memorable of the series. I do have it on Laserdisc. Unfortunately, it isn't one of the ones that was released on DVD.
I remember an episode where Julie is shot in the head by a mentally challanged child. I think the gun was a crime weapon that was hidden, and the child found it and accidentally shot Julie. They used the same story in a Charlies Angels episode, where Kelly is in a park with a mentally challanged child and is also shot. I can bearly remember the episodes. Something about a story that was told to the child, and the child getting into a white swan boat.
i just realized that this theme song was used for the movie "The Cable Guy" when Matthew Broderick is having a nightmare of Jim Carrey chasing him down the hallway! cant believe i finally figured that out.
They never, ever, ever, ever.... smiled. In the late 60's and early 70's, I was a new immigrant to North America, from a poor but sunny and happy culture; one where youth regularly laughed and smiled. Consequently, I always found their demeanor immensely strange.
You do have to wonder what they're running FROM, and you also have to wonder WHERE they're running around in, as well - a long, leaky hallway with water on the floor.
I am looking for the original pilot, not Teeth of the Baracutta, but the first one that shows how they all came together after being arrested by capt. Greer. Does anyone know where a can find a copy?
They ain't a part of the establishment man, no way no how. They ain't the man, man. They ain't pigs. They are hip, they are groovy, they are the Mod Squad man!
Sure wish someone would post a closing theme clip or two for this show--I used to love that soft guitar under the very last lines of dialogue and then the rockin, percussive music that closed the episode. (Then the original OT would always replay over the end credits)
When I was a child, I always wondered what in the hell they were running from? Now that I'm an adult, I'm still wondering what in the hell they were running from? And man, they were running HARD, their feet are barely touching the ground. LOL!!!!!!!
My brothers and I used to run around the house and pretend we were Mod Squad, theme song and all. They always wanted me to be the girl but I wanted to be Link because he was a bad ass.
@Downtowncb1, used to do the same thing, only without my brothers-they wouldn't lower themselves to do that. I pretended I was running with the two guys, Linc and can't remember the other guy's name. HAHAHA!! Wonder how many kids pretended to be them and run for their lives? I thought I was the only one-hahaha!!
Love the opening we had this show in my country we had 3 channels so we did not have much to pick from.I think they all alive now Peggy still look good now.
what was that,,,i had just come from india back in 74 or 5 this is what everyone was watching,,,,what an impression that made for someone who had never seen tv
The opening credits were all I ever watched of this show. I liked the theme song and the freeze-frames of the dramatic expressions on the faces of the stars - but even so, I never bothered to actually watch any of the actual program.
@jengacrock That's a stupid comment. Black actors were grateful to get good quality work (like MS) just like any actor. There was less work for them then--but things changed--tv led society by the nose to more multi cultural shows--not the other way around. Clarence was a bit of trailblazer, its true--see the glass as being half full.
I am ashamed to say, that, when I was a kid, we white kids would fight over who was Pete and who would be Link. Sorry Clarence, it was a sign of the times. Thank God, we've progressed, at least, a little bit passed that shit. I loved you in "Reindeer Games". - Hickey Burr
I remember this show back then. Great chemistry between the actors. Clarence Williams III was a great role model for kids. Sharp witted and often spoke in a philisophical tones while taking out the bad guys. Tige Andrews as Captain Adam Greer was excellent! That was a good time to be a kid.
shanquilla562, you are such a fucking pig. If you're saying those things just to get a reaction you're pathetic. If you mean what you wrote you're disgusting. Either way you're a waste of a human being.
@Swallowguy STFU bundle of sticks, I'm just telling you what I use to think, that th reason they were running, was they thought the negro was gonna rape Peggy
shanquilla562, and I'm just telling you that if a person had a thought like that even way back then then that person was and unless they've changed dramatically, still is a disgusting pig.
@Swallowguy What? you're a STUPID Bundle of Sticks..lol EVERYBODY KNOWS the negro men rape more women than ANY other race, look at haiti right now, bundle of sticks, the UN has just NOW added extra security, the negro woman from 3 years old up till 85 years old were geting raped day in and day out, and that's just haiti, LOOK at the statistics, you Large bundle of sticks
@shanquilla562 what is this shit? get off YT--you are a sorry human being. this is a great show with actors who just happen to be of different ethnicities--they are good actors first and formost. We don't need stupid hateful comments like yours posted.
Oh... Peggy Lipton... My first real TV crush... By the time I was in my teens, there was Susan Dey, but Peggy, you were the first.
I always loved Tige Andrews bursting through that door, in the side of that tunnel, and then... just scowling. Like he going to yell at them for running in the tunnel, or something?
@kenpalmer1965 I take it you were born in the year 1965. I was born in 1964. This show was one of my earliest memories! What a time! We were born in the midst of Beatlemania!!
Yes indeed I was born in 1965. Like you said, it was Beatlemania time back then! Great memories as well for this show. I used to imitate this show in elementary school with a couple of my friends. That's how much I liked it!
I loved this show. I agree about the theme song being great. I had forgotten the tune until I ended up on this page. Today it would probably be considered "hokey", but in the 70's everything had that sort of twangy drive in movie sounding theme. If I recall correctly, this show ran for 45 min. as opposed to the usual 30-60 minute shows. I believe it was shown back to back with David Steinberg's "Music Scene". Anyone remember that?
Also had a serious crush on Michael Cole back then.
@VenusGrnys Actually,The Mod Squad had it's own hour-long slot on Tuesday nights. The show you're thinking of is The New People. The Music Scene was on at 7:30 Monday night, followed by The New People at 8:15. Both were terrific shows but, going up against Gunsmoke, and Laugh-in, they were canceled in January 1970.
Every Tuesday night at 7:30, I was right there glued to my t.v. screen watching Mod Squad. Bring back those days when there were only 3 networks with more on t.v. than there is today with 600 stations!
You got that right, 600 stations and nothing but the same movies and dumbass reality shows and ridiculous "paid programming" that take up more timeslots than a regular sitcom. Television today absolutely sucks and the sad part is...... it won't get any better. We can savor the memories though.
The theme music was written by Earle Hagan, who played in the Big Bands as a young man. He wrote Harlem Nocturne, which became the theme from Mike Hammer. He also wrote the theme for the Andy Griffith Show - and yes, whistled it himself, too. Also the theme for the Dick Van Dyke Show and others
This is one excellent intro, the high energy music and the way the Mod Squad is trying escape is outstanding, not to mention the way the graphics zoom out of the tunnel at the beginning.
@carnisero43 Tige Andrews, who was actually a Broadway star. He first introduced the song Mack the Knife, the one Bobby Darrin (sigh) made so popular.

Oh... Peggy Lipton... My first real TV crush... By the time I was in my teens, there was Susan Dey, but Peggy, you were the first.
I always loved Tige Andrews bursting through that door, in the side of that tunnel, and then... just scowling. Like he going to yell at them for running in the tunnel, or something?

Yes indeed I was born in 1965. Like you said, it was Beatlemania time back then! Great memories as well for this show. I used to imitate this show in elementary school with a couple of my friends. That's how much I liked it!

I loved this show. I agree about the theme song being great. I had forgotten the tune until I ended up on this page. Today it would probably be considered "hokey", but in the 70's everything had that sort of twangy drive in movie sounding theme. If I recall correctly, this show ran for 45 min. as opposed to the usual 30-60 minute shows. I believe it was shown back to back with David Steinberg's "Music Scene". Anyone remember that?
Also had a serious crush on Michael Cole back then.

@VenusGrnys Actually,The Mod Squad had it's own hour-long slot on Tuesday nights. The show you're thinking of is The New People. The Music Scene was on at 7:30 Monday night, followed by The New People at 8:15. Both were terrific shows but, going up against Gunsmoke, and Laugh-in, they were canceled in January 1970.

You're right, I stand corrected. I guess my memory isn't as good as I thought it was.

Every Tuesday night at 7:30, I was right there glued to my t.v. screen watching Mod Squad. Bring back those days when there were only 3 networks with more on t.v. than there is today with 600 stations!
winscott9601 2 years ago
You got that right, 600 stations and nothing but the same movies and dumbass reality shows and ridiculous "paid programming" that take up more timeslots than a regular sitcom. Television today absolutely sucks and the sad part is...... it won't get any better. We can savor the memories though.

@sparwood8 Actually, the theme for The Mod Squad was composed by Earle Hagen who also wrote the theme to The Andy Griffith Show among many others.

The theme music was written by Earle Hagan, who played in the Big Bands as a young man. He wrote Harlem Nocturne, which became the theme from Mike Hammer. He also wrote the theme for the Andy Griffith Show - and yes, whistled it himself, too. Also the theme for the Dick Van Dyke Show and others
lbkeller41293 2 years ago
I didn't know Mod Squad was an Earle Hagen composition. He was a genius. He wrote the best theme songs but the
60s and 70s was an era of great TV themes. The mod Squad was considered hip and edgy back then, hahaha.

No, it was a Spelling/Thomas Production as in Aaron Spelling and Danny Thomas.

This is one excellent intro, the high energy music and the way the Mod Squad is trying escape is outstanding, not to mention the way the graphics zoom out of the tunnel at the beginning.
