BJ & THE BEAR: THE FOUNDLINGS PT.1 (1978)

"Hooonk..hooonk,hooonk.....hey there where your going...", begins a one of the most popular tv show medley of the late 1970s theme song of BJ and the Bear.
B.J. McKay was a good-looking young trucker who traveled around the country in his big red & white rig, with a single companion - his pet chimp, Bear. B.J. was based in rural Georgia and was confronted by a succession of corrupt local sheriffs - Elroy P. Lobo (who was later given his own series, Lobo); Sgt. Wiley of Winslow County and his two fellow lawmen, Sheriffs Cain and Masters. The only honest cop B.J. seemed to encounter was the Fox, who spent much of her time trying to trap the crooked local cops. Tommy was a lady trucker friend and Bullets ran the local hangout, the Country Comfort Truck Stop.In 1981, B.J. settled down to run a trucking business in Los Angeles called Bear Enterprises. His new adversary was Rutherford T. Grant, a corrupt politician who headed the state Special Crimes Action Team. Grant was a silent partner in TransCal, the largest trucking firm in California and stopped at nothing to stomp out potential competition.

The good old days when TV shows were much fun to watch back in '78. BJ and the bear is definitely a classic.

Another show that seemed like it should have had a longer run.

Wonder what happened to Greg Evigan?
