I loved to watch Highway Patrol when I was a kid. Mr. Crawford is a tv god. You guys popped that bubble......thaaaaanks.

I still enjoy watching old episodes of "Highway Patrol", "Dragnet", "M-Squad" and other old shows.
From what I read Crawford had some issues with alcoholism during the time the show was filmed and he actually had a suspended licence. He was also putting on a lot of weight which made some of the Bell 47 copter episodes a bit cramped for space. But regardless, he did a great job as Lt. Matthews of Highway patrol.
I also enjoy old Sea Hunt episodes. "Sea Hunt" inspired my interest in underwater diving. Although I must admit, I never became much of a diver.
