  1. I grew up on ADAM-12 and have been collecting all of those (and EMERGENCY!). I get such a kick out of my own kids watching them too. :)

    Thanks, as always, for a great rundown!

    Best wishes,
    Laura

  2. I’ve had the Noir set on pre-order practically since it was announced – can’t wait to get my hands on it. However, it seems that it’s been pushed back another week. Ah well, I’ve waited this long.
