Quincy M E series origin.

This episode features the evocative Sharon Acker as the model/girlfriend...Ms. Acker is probably best known for playing Odona in 'The Mark of Gideon' episode of Star Trek where she willingly lets Kirk infect her with meningitis so that a plague will depopulate her crowded planet.

A truly incredible show - then, and now - with a sobriety and moral seriousness (rather than the moral sanctimony colouring most pop culture today) indicative of the Modern sensibility of the times, ie; the objectivity to allow for all things to exist as phenomena to be understood rather than judged.

Even showing Wojeck shirtless in bed with his wife was soooo progressive for 1966...and clearly here...they weren't exactly asleep when the phone rang...

At 25:55 "it was bilingual". Unthinkable. I'm sure today's Quebec language Police would have something to say about that.

The CBC should be forced to release all the tv and radio programs they have produced, they re rotting away in vaults, I guess most don't excist anymore.Anyways many are now in the public domain.

I made it there 7 times and it was always a great time, will never forget it. So crazy to think it was 57 years ago! How the years tick by when we aren't paying attention.

Looks like a lot of fun from here in 2024

180 pounds was big then.😮

I say that both Canadian and American reporters do a great job reporting stories for the news. As an American, I would say that the sponsors for the evening news in the USA wanted to sponsor the news and have the reporters promote the product. For the Caramel News Caravan, it would later become NBC Nightly News.

A suckass college administrator? I don't believe it.

The irony of an episode on drug addiction where the main characters smoke enough to cause air pollution alerts.

42:15 the other legacy is another engineering and operational feat, permanent and as great as the Eiffel Tower if not much more complicated: building an artificial island and then a whole "town" with all the necessary and utterly innovative communication requirements, amenities, project management technique etc, flawlessly and in 4 years! An that island is still there, beautiful along La Ronde, Habitat 67, the Biodome, the Casino...

Our Formula One race track is there now which Mayor Drapeau also brought to Montreal!

Peter Donat continued on the weasel trail when playing a senator in Godfather II.

Best summer of my 18th year. Pavilions during the day, dancing and dining evenings with friends

I was 17. Most beautiful summer of my life. Life changing experience.

Such a tragic story. Actually, now that I think about it, I see the last scene differently: Tony sees it as an escape into freedom, his delusion induced by drugs.

YOUR Silly Native Superstition May Vary.

First time I see this incredible series since it’s first showing in the late nineties. Thanks! In the era of fake news, this is so on the nose…

Fantastic! Thanks for posting this.

I was 9 yrs old. I remember going up the escalator from the St Helene metro and in front of me was the Geodesic dome of the US pavilion and across on Ile Notre Dame, the USSR pavilion.

I turned 4 that year still,have all the expos passports I remember some things but I was young

Loving these episodes! Thinks, Michael.

Where is part 6

Where is part5 of this ?

Where is part 5 at ?

So glad to still get this.

Elvis didnt create anything he took what he saw & spyed on. Black church people.

Kings college circle in there cool. U of T

No way, I thought this was lost footage??

Yet another good one. Thanks

oof

Morton Shulman, Toronto City Coroner at the time had numerous complaints-proved to all be valid-about the design of both the Gardiner Expressway and shown here-the Don Valley Parkway.

Forget San Francisco, this is where you would want to drop acid!

Elvis was the most overrated artist in the history of music. He stole black music. The industry machine made him famous. That was easy thanks to segregation. People wanted an answer to the likes of Little Richard and Chuck Berry. Most of you have no idea that the man had blonde hair that was dyed black. Even at death his stylist colored his hair before burial. The autopsy said he had a slew of different drugs in his system. Elvis began modestly, but due to the industry, he overestimated who he was.

This film underscores several reasons why I no longer watch television. CNN had a brief moment of glory in pursuing independent coverage of the “Gulf” wars of the early 1990s and defying the nefarious Bush administration. Now it is another tabloid of the air. Fluff journalists like Barbara Walters finally, alas, came to the fore after the late, lamented Frank McGee tried to put the brakes on her when he was at the helm of NBC’s “Today”. McGee, who died at 52 of bone cancer in 1974, was wrongly accused of being a male chauvinist. That Walters was a woman had nothing to do with it!that Walters specialized in puff pieces about celebrities and rubbish had everything to do with it! I had the misfortune of pretending to be a radio newsman and taking money for it when I was a very young man. I remember one of my bosses gleefully brandishing a wire story about a Baptist minister who bludgeoned his wife to death with a baseball bat, screaming at me to “develop it”.

I was born in 1966 in T.O. and wonder why I've never heard or seen any mention of this show.

Thanks for letting me see my Grandfather again (Lou the Lawyer).

Wow! The CBC really pushed the envelope back then. This episode dealt with so many issues that the American networks wouldn't touch at that point...abortion, lesbianism, violence against women. The writing was topnotch, the directing was cinematic, and the acting excellent. So many twists in this episode that my mouth was hanging open for half of it. It was also fascinating to see Toronto in the '60s, long before it became the global city it is now...mysterious, gritty, even seedy.

This is an episode of the 2004 CBC series Canadian Experience: Season 1, Episode 5.

The actor Hugh Curry playing the son later interviewed John Lennon and Yoko Ono .. I think he became a radio announcer or host, and interviewed Hendrix, and other music legends of that time ... This is the sort of weird stuff I find out tracking down names in shows like this.

I was there as a kid, I remember the crazy inverted roof pavilion, other striking architecture, and the minirail going through the USA dome. The video brought back other memories, like the multi-screen movies, getting your passport stamped, and the irritating Young Canadians song ("We love you Now we are 20 million") and the Ontari-ari-ario song. Expo 86 in Vancouver was good but not as good.

As a 62 year old Montrealer. I remember this so well. I was 6 in 1967 and went lots with my family. I remember the line ups and the mini rail and the monorail ( blue and yellow respectively). It was so cool. My older siblings would stay for a concert at Place des Nation and I’d go home with my folks. Damn missed Jefferson Airplane. They find their way back to the West Island some time much later. I still live around Montreal but haven’t been to the site for years. The French Pavillion is now Casino du Montreal.

misinformation.

Thank you. That was special. John Vernon, the cast with Bruno Gerussi were fine actors. And that final scene where through all the heartache (Bruno) "Mario" asks the pretty "Maria" to dance in the streets with him for his dead mom to still celebrate what's left of life is very touching.

A script they pretty much copied on an episode of Quincy a few years later.

It was the last time the Toronto Maple Leafs son the Stanley Cup. Constant reminde.
