liberty, you are my current hero w/these mod squad uploads, but i disagree with ANY comment downgrading julie barnes, or the beautiful actress who played her. i wouldn't be a mod squad fan if not for peggy lipton; the most believable character on the show. karate? charlie angels? come'on ppl, not very realistic.. the 'women kick a' thing is a cartoonish invention of these times. they really dont.. even the guy rescue scenes are unrealistic. i came heret to see 'julie scenes' from 109.irony!

@JudeJaded15 Thanks! But ... I don't think anyone is denigrating Peggy Lipton AT ALL. She was terrific and an integral part of the show. As for Julie Barnes, sorry, I must respectfully agree. I'm not asking for her to be Buffy the Vampire Slayer. But she had NO physical prowess at all, and was reduced to whimpers at the slightest threat. She was neither brave nor athletic. I prefer female characters who are both. Anyway, I'll move 109 to the top of my full ep upload list.

Liberty0106, I couldn't agree you more.. I think that Julie always be the useless character in every episode. ckckck why she joined in mod squad as COP officer?? Hopefully, she can using her power with karate to fight the enemies like charlie's angels but where is she now??she's bad like a coward when her friend needs help at once. OMG

They had an opportunity to break ground with her as a female cop just as they broke ground so well on racial issues, and they blew it. Oh well, you can't ask for everything.

You're so right. The Mod Squad was ahead of its time in a lot of ways ... but not in how the Julie character was written. Helpless female stereotype - it was really annoying.
