The people in TV shows were not real. Any autos featured were product ads. Imcdb...is a decent website. Check it out
ChIPS had a tiresome herd of cars that re appear constantly. Shot many scenes on nearly completed freeway sections.1983 GS 550 LD

That was Red. Clem Kadiddlehopper.
Or the Jackie Gleason show. The Poor Soul, Joe the Bartender, and that bus driver what's his name?
Read an interesting piece about Gleason. He kept a suitcase with some clothes and $10,000 cash in a bus terminal locker in Newark for the day when he would have to skip town on a moment's notice. Always afraid it could all come crashing down any time.
I used to keep a pile of cash and credit cards by the door that led to the garage. If I got wind that zombies (or the police) were on their way, I could be a few states away in a few hours.
Remember bus station (or airport) lockers?

Thanks for that reminder.
Red Skelton dates all the way back to Vaudeville days.
I think he was a professional clown in those days.
He was a wonderful comedian. ...simple humour...lots of puns....everything was always clean
He had a long-standing reputation for laughing at his own jokes.
I saw him live at the CNE grandstand in Toronto, which may have been his last performance here..
These youtube clips were likely from that visit
Another one from London

My wife and I also saw him live here in Portland, he went way overtime one ovation after another. The Glisan show was called the honeymooners. Sky King was one I watched as a kid when I could.
