Some useless info on the topic........
HP was one of the few syndicated early TV shows,. It was shot at the ZIV studios, the first independent Hollyweird studio to specialize in tv productions. A lot of the Superman episodes were also shot there. The studio has long since been torn down. Another bit of worthless info, the wife of the cafe owner, Paula Houston, appeared in an episode of Superman the year after this Highway Patrol.
The CHP has had quite a number of different brand of patrol cars over the years, in this episode Broderick Crawford is driving a 1955(?) Mercury. Later episodes had him in a Buick.
EDIT: Hell I think I'm developing a stuttering problem !!
Thanx,

Hey don't forget CHIP's from the 70's......Think that has just about been the only acting the two lead actors ever did.
OH I forgot Ponce sold some kind of turkey in commercials
One thing I always notice......when they pulled off their helmets, not one case of helmet hair, not one.
Hell if I could look that cool when I pull my hat off I would wear it all the time....LOL
