I watched 100 of these episodes and so far only two where Dan did not initiate a road block. A third episode he said it was "too late to set up a roadblock". lol
LOL!! Your right! But if you watch the '60s episodes of 'Combat' (fantastic WW2 series) Sargeant Saunders is ALWAYS wipping out his field map in the French country side to scout German troup movements. Robert at 69.
LOL! Well, Dan had a reservation already before he got there, so he probably already knew where his cabin was without having to ask! That's how things were done back in the 1950s, just an advance phone call! I know cuz I was born in the late 40s and grew up in the 50s and 60s! Better times then!
@doctorwho0077 The antenna was visible in some of the scenes. Used to be the easiest way to spot a Pennsylvania state police undercover car was to spot the VHF antenna for their legacy system that they used at least until recently as the first trunked system didn't work well.
That was a great line, just like Joe Friday on Dragnet..great show! My father would watch these back in the 50’s, he loved Police shows.I-was born in 1951, I remember some of these or maybe just the name, Highway Patrol..
The movie was a wonderful one titled All The Kings Men, and Brod won the Oscar with an outstanding performance for the 1949 release...it is on youtube..strongly advise to check it out...
Lots of illegal searches take place in these episodes. I've watched probably 50 of these and never seen a single warrant. Also, lots of officer involved shootings with no provocation. Ahhh, the good old days. Police work they way it should be done.
About a year and a half ago I actually found this show for the first time. On TH-cam and not on syndication TV. Wonder why TV isn't the medium that we like it to be?
@David Powell Back in the 60's at least through the late 80's, most departments routinely qualified out to 50 yds with a sidearm. Today, most have dumbed it down to 15 yds max.
Saw a Law & Order episode where as Lenny Brisco is taking in a handcuffed hood, the hood demands to know, "What's the charge?" Detective Briscoe replies, "There's no charge. This one's on us."
I wish that all of these shows were being played on TH-cam, I got hooked from when I was younger & watched them without fail every week, Love the oldies on TV & here also..
@@mikemartini3813 Like wise only I started watching this show back in 1956 - 1957. In that time period, a friend and I joined the Junior Police in La Habra. After our "meetings", we'd tune in this series. Man, we thought we were hot stuff.
@@mikemartini3813 Hello again. I lived in SoCal until 1978 when my wife and I moved to the Bay Area. I've lived in Whittier, Paramount, Downey and, other cities down there. I worked in South Gate until I had it with management so, we moved to greener pastures. If my memory serves me, KTLA was channel 5. During my teens I listened to KFWB and, KRLA on the radio.
Narcotics, the old reliable when it comes to cop show plots. This time they're moving it as fish from a vacation lodge, in another HP epic it was sugar in box lunches from a cafe. When Crawford said "We ran out of crimes" after Patrol ended, he wasn't kidding.
Sure they did, it just wasn't publicized. On the opening scene that shows the small white car with the black ragtop crossing the centerline and weaving a bit - that's gotta be Crawford driving after one of his 'binges'. ; )
Too Funny = Definitely another "low budget" Ha-Ha-Ha Hollywood production!!! IE: This episode was filmed in the nearby country foothills outside of L.A., though FINE trout fishing is "down the road" at an elevation of At Least another 3K ft = in the pine country ala Lake Arrowhead (at minimum)….!!! :-)
There’s two things I’ve noticed watching these episodes. Firstly, they spend an in ordinate amount of time showing cars moving from one place to the other. Secondly, the female dispatchers get hotter as the episodes plod along
I use to watch the Highway Patrol when I was a kid. I always thought Dan Matthew was mean guy. Now I'm in my 60's and realized that he had to be tougher than the criminals.
15:20 ......................... Uh, Dan, what about the 4th Amendment? Got a search warrant for the car? For all that matters, he didn't have a warrant to search the old Plymouth hot rod carburetor either.
What with the shot up driver, it was a crime scene . But in general : 1. This was the mid 1950's , before Miranda, and various 4th A cases that followed in the '60s . 2. This is TV , aka dramatic fiction .
This lodge location had to be near the San Fernando, Simi Valleys. Can't figure where this 'lodge' could have been for filming. There was no Pyramid Lake or Castaic Lake, back then. Maybe Lebec? Or, up in the AV Big Rock Creek, Soledad Canyon? Frazier Park?IMDB gives no filming location.
This is a good program in the series. Dan was just trying to go some place quiet to fish...then the wounded guy in the hot rod making all that noise. Reminds me of a day back around 1978, 79. I took the day off to go fishing in the Sacramento River delta area. We had a boat, and came across an adullt body that had been in the river several days. My friend told me "We have to report this!" I agreed with him but told him after we had a day of fishing we would report it to the Sheriff's office but that there was nothing we could do for the adult male's body but put closure for his family, and we continued to fish until we headed home.
9:50 ........................ Funny how those bullet holes in the driver's door didn't seem to go through the door, but three shots managed to hit the driver. LOL!
That came 33 years later - on Law & Order - and then they had to expand the drama to one hour with ads. They couldn't give out search warrants on HP - They had to fit in the beer commercial. LMAO!!!
San Bernardino Mountains I saw in one, Van Nuys in other. Bush Gardens in background in the one about Hotel Robbery. I didn’t recognize any major areas though.
It's about time Dan you you need one nice 😉 👍 hat still watching 2022 remenenber live your blood at the blood Bank not on the side of the road love this show RIP Dan
I enjoy watching all of these videos, I like police work and it is very interesting how the Highway Patrol and police departments operate, I enjoy watching these videos instead of watching TV, there is nothing on TV, these videos are more interesting.
athank you,ablack Buick. Also, kinda looked like the salt and pepper shakers and the ash tray. Ha! Actually, Mattews may have been trying not to look like he was evesdropping on the Lodge owner and the lady guest.
Vacation? What vacation? LOL wherever Dan is a crime always seems to goes down. Dan's personal car the '58 Chevy 4 door BelAir brings back memories as I had an exact one, a two tone white and copper color in 1977. Naturally Dan has a police radio in his own car. The patrol is his life, what the heck. The 1947 or '48 Ford is obviously souped up and was a good fast car for a drug mule. To make a long story short this caper was doomed from when that guy drove into the lodge.
I've seen all these episodes so many times that now I'm going to start posting succinct plot synopsis 'Dan tries to take some time off to relax and do some fishin' and an idiot heroin mule blows the cover on his favorite fishing (regional distribution) lodge.' [Dan makes arrests and has to shoot at someone]
Do you get the feeling that everyone around Dan Mathews purposely says something dumb so Dan can correct them, so he feels "in charge" and "boss of everything" and leaves them alone? Dan may be a psycho & all his subordinates are enabling his psychosis.
You for got the 57 Mercury Monteray police interceptor that was used by the CHP in the late 50's into the 60's. The big Mercs always had the 383 and 430 Lincoln motors .
1958 is first year of the Impala. Impala was part of the Bel Air series in 1958 and only available as a Sports Coupe or Convertible. Dan's car is a 4 dr hardtop, therefore cannot be an Impala. It is a Bel Air.
Cops had easy in ‘57. There was no problem in distinguishing a ‘57 Ford (awesome design; the ‘58 SUCKED!) and a ‘57 Chevy. HOWEVER, when a car’s description is broadcast, you NEVER hear the the vehicle’s make, model, and year. Did Ford, GM, or Chrysler ever have exclusive sponsorship of these show’s?
Network shows often had sponsorships. Remember how Sherriff Andy Griffith always had the latest model Ford Patrol cars. Highway Patrol was an independent production and used what it could get.
Love those incredible 50s cars. Also the attractive, stylishly dressed ladies.
I was about 8 when this show was on. I remember watching the show with my dad
Dan got a 58.chevy 4 door
Those ladies had to starve themselves to meet film studio requirements for physique. That's how they got such thin waists.
That was a sweet Chevy 4 DR@@gertraba9806
You mean those ladies old enough to be your grandma?
Dan loves a road block, and his map.
lol 😂 that’s why Dan joined the Highway Patrol, to read maps on the hood of patrol cars and instigate road blocks !😂
I watched 100 of these episodes and so far only two where Dan did not initiate a road block. A third episode he said it was "too late to set up a roadblock". lol
LOL!! Your right! But if you watch the '60s episodes of 'Combat' (fantastic WW2 series) Sargeant Saunders is ALWAYS wipping out his field map in the French country side to scout German troup movements. Robert at 69.
He’s one hell of a good cop, Dan even knows where his cabin is without ever being told the number.
LOL! Well, Dan had a reservation already before he got there, so he probably already knew where his cabin was without having to ask! That's how things were done back in the 1950s, just an advance phone call! I know cuz I was born in the late 40s and grew up in the 50s and 60s! Better times then!
I love the way the chases start with a Buick switches to a ford and ends up with a mercury all with the same officer driving
@@davidcoon8671 it keeps the criminals guessing. Complicates the paperwork though…
ESP
Maybe it was on the key the desk clerk gave him.
I can't imagine Dan Mathews taking a vacation.
That means law breakers had to wait to break the law. No road blocks!
Well even law breakers and criminal need a holiday 😂
Great episode! This show is one of my ultimate favorites of the 50s...my favorite decade as well! Thank you very much for posting!👍
Luv all these old shows better than today's shows.
Yes, I also luv all these old shows, they were the tops!
Totally agree with you!!😊
Amazing how the police radio in Dan's car worked so well without the cop car antenna. The magic of '50's TV.
@doctorwho0077 The antenna was visible in some of the scenes. Used to be the easiest way to spot a Pennsylvania state police undercover car was to spot the VHF antenna for their legacy system that they used at least until recently as the first trunked system didn't work well.
And he didn’t drain the battery dead.
Love oldies, with all the flaws, innocence of days gone by
Dan's radio wouldn't dare not work.
And in a box canyon, too!
Those huge 50's cars could actually block BOTH lanes on a road!!!! Try that with any present day vehicle!.
"How did it happen? There was a gun, somebody picked it up and started shooting. " Come on, I've got reservations for you. Love these lines.
That was a great line, just like Joe Friday on Dragnet..great show! My father would watch these back in the 50’s, he loved Police shows.I-was born in 1951, I remember some of these or maybe just the name, Highway Patrol..
A gorgeous 58 chevy four door with no B pillar. Just classic
Amen!
Not classic, brand new.
4 door, yuck
I think back then they called those hardtops. No B pillar makes it a 4 door coupe. Interesting.
@@LuckyBaldwin777 Yes, they were called "hardtops" back then. Sedans were called a "post" car (had a center pillar/post between the doors).

They didn't know how to hide the drugs very well back then.
And no police pups to sniff em out.
Love these cars. Good episode. Thank you for uploading.
yup. perry mason has lotsa cool cars too. more on the luxury side
@@wallytverstol8627 Perry Mason had lots of COOL OLD CARS.
This is a classic episode: dope is smuggled disguised as boxes of "free complimentary fish." Seriously!
Gee, old Dan can't even take a nice vacation without getting involved with a crime.
A little gun play is very relaxing ...!!!!
And where is Mrs Mathews?
I was thinking the same.
Probably Matthews idea of a perfect vacation.
It's called "a working vacation."
Lots of illegal searches take place in these episodes. I've watched probably 50 of these and never seen a single warrant. Also, lots of officer involved shootings with no provocation. Ahhh, the good old days. Police work they way it should be done.
These were the days before the Warren court (SCOTUS). The Constitution was not as closely adhered to, then.
You people do understand that this TV show is FICTION, right? You do understand that don't you?

So Dan's a fisherman, eh? Police work is a sort of fishing, in a way...
Those cops were good shots with those revolvers for sure.
Was that a 6" barrel Colt?
they were more accurate than the semiauto crap they have nowadays but not that accurate---
He done dropped him good.....................
@David Powell
Back in the 60's at least through the late 80's, most departments routinely qualified out to 50 yds with a sidearm. Today, most have dumbed it down to 15 yds max.

Dan Mathews is a '58 Chevy guy? Amazing...I figured him for a Buick or Olds or Mopar type. Shows you never know....
Dan Mathews was on a cop's salary. Brand new '58 Chevy was probably within his pay grade.
22:00 I was wondering when a road block was going to show up...
that was a bad place for the road block. Anybody coming around that corner with any kind of speed would not have been able to stop with 50's brakes.
What was Matthews picking up off the table and putting in his pockets while the proprietor and the blonde lady were talking?
Her phone number.

Dan's personal ride. A 1958 Chevy Belair. Nice.
to see the cars would make colorizing these episodes totally worthy
They never had color tv until the mid 60's. I saw my first colored was in 65 , both tv and person from Africa. Won't never forget that one.
And the women…
Tires screeching on dirt roads? How does that work?
TV can do anything
That's the foley artist getting a bit carried away.
same as bullets ricocheting off wood
Cars screeching on dirt roads is like.horse hoof noise on a grassy trail.on 50's westerns .
Of course it does. It’s the Highway Patrol!

Reasonable cause.
Chuck Ster ....probable cause ...no warrant needed.
@@carvinlambert6899
Hollywood ......Pure fantasy, not reality.
What with the shot up driver, it was a crime scene .
But in general :
1. This was the mid 1950's , before Miranda, and various 4th A cases that followed in the '60s .
2. This is TV , aka dramatic fiction .
See how easily Dan removed that radio, his days working in the Hy-fy radio and sound installation business paid off.
Nice how that last guy got shot and rolled right down the hill and face up. Dan would not have wanted to go up the hill and work up a sweat!!!
Dan was the most athletic TV cop ever, until Frank Cannon came along.
Thanks for posting all of these.
I have all the seasons of this show on DVD’s, EXCEPT season 1, which, for some reason is much more expensive.
Everybody wants to see the start of a series...not everybody wants to see subsequent seasons...Basic economics
Meh...get it .. worth it
I'll give him this much - Mathews is a fly fisherman. He looks like Edgar Buchanan from Petticoat Junction, though.
Oh ya ... Dan just acts soooo innocent. But we all know he's always on duty! ;-) This is so hokey that it's really ... a fun comedy.
Now now, be nice.
"10-4 You Stupid Slobs"!!.......I want to hear it only once!

Officer Ken Williams was referred to as Johnson in this episode. Does he have a Dopleganger?
No, but he does have a Hickenlooper!

Season 3, Episode 34 (1958)
They throw darts like they're throwing fastballs!!
was waiting to see if he could pull it out of the wall..haha
They had to throw the darts harder back then because they weren't as sharp.
9:50 ........................ Funny how those bullet holes in the driver's door didn't seem to go through the door, but three shots managed to hit the driver. LOL!
That's the RUBBER STAGE bullets that they used back in the day so the stunt guys could get away with out paying for work mans comp bennies.
William Boyett has always been my favorite actor!
As many times as he played cops throughout his life he probably knew a lot about police work too.
HAH, DAN WEARING HIS COP SHOES ON VACATION !
A lot of 10-4ing going on.
Dan doesn't worry about search warrants. Motion to suppress granted.
Where do you think he needed a search warrant in this episode?
They ever hear of a search warrant??
That came 33 years later - on Law & Order - and then they had to expand the drama to one hour with ads. They couldn't give out search warrants on HP - They had to fit in the beer commercial. LMAO!!!
"I got the H"
11:01 "Look at that, two carburetors!"....... Looks like ONE carb to me.
I love cop shows in the 50's that were pretty condensed and to the point!

North L.A. Before it was really built up.
