Hey remember when we used to watch CHiPs every Thursday night? And how we used to fight over who was cooler, Ponch or Jon? And how Ponch was always disco dancing while Jon stood over in the corner shaking his head at his good buddys disco antics?
Or how when the guys reported to Sergeant Getraer we could never understand what his last name was so we called him Contrare, Cotrare, Getrare or Savoir Faire? And how Grossie was always the butt of the guys lame jokes? And we thought the nickname was because he was a slob but it was really because his last name was Grossman? And how Ponch would try to pick up girls while they were out on a call, while Jon stood over by their bikes shaking his head at his good buddys overtly flirty antics?
And do you remember when the show started, that Ponch was the outgoing handsome Lothario and Jon was the quiet sweet boy next door type of guy? But after a few seasons, Ponch was the arrogant primadonna and Jon was the bitter jealous one?
And when Ponch would do his disco rollerskating, Jon would stand at the edge of the rink shaking his head at his buddys girl-impressing, disco skating antics? But we could tell by the look in his eyes that what he was really thinking was, "Why does Ponch always get the girl? Why does everyone want to hang out with Ponch? Why don't the women every pay attention to me? Damn you, Ponch. Damn you all to hell!!! I hope you fall right on your ass, you no good son of a bitch!"
Good times......

I always just wanted to slug Estrada. The coolest thing about CHiPs is that it aslo had Michael "Mr. Worf" Dorn.
I remember the one where Ponch did karate. Was there nothing he couldn't do?
I couldn't stand Estrada. My best friend thought he was hot. But he drove me nuts with his womanizing and his disco clothes.
I don't remember Ponch doing karate, but I'll bet he tried to pick up women while he was doing it, and I'll bet John looked sheepish.
I also remember Leif Garrett doing a guest appearance once in a while when he wasn't busy drunkenly crashing into trees.
Oh god, Leif Garrett! I'm sure he was singing and wearing that white suit from the cover of his first album. I must have seen that episode, but I don't remember it. Boy would I like to see it now. It would be awesome...and dreamy.
i liked when grossi was showing the searge what slam dancing was against the lockers.
Oh god, that grossi....what a nut. I'd love to have a dvd of stupid clips like Grossi slamming into the lockers, Leif Garretts appearance, Ponch's disco dancing, and Jon shaking his head and chuckling at Ponch's antics. Boy, did Jon like to shake his head, shuffle his feet, and chuckle.....
