I liked it too. I didn't like the remake series. Other than a character named McGarret, and the setting, if there was something else the two had in common, I don't know what it was.Hawaii 50 . . . one of my all time favorite shows.
Robert Vaughn and David McCallum from The Man From U.N.C.L.E.Remember them?????? The movie remake sucked.

I lived both places. Arby's was midwest. Not south-central (Texas) or southeast (TN, GA) - at least, not when I lived in those places. It was Roy Rogers in New England (PA, NJ, NY). When I went to college (back in midwest - KC, from HS in Princeton) I was able to taste test them "head to head". Arby's had better meat. Roy's had better sauce (sweeter, compared to Arby;'s tangier). The things that stick in my mind...I'm on the East Coast, but in Massachusetts. I haven't seen either an Arby's nor a, what was it, Roy Rogers?

I liked when Tommy Lasorda came by for advice. Also Dr. Brothers asking about something like "Cinderella Complex". I think a surgeon came by asking how to do a transplant. "What's the word on the street, Johnny."I always liked the shoeshine gag in Police Squad! (TV Show) had Detective Drebin (played by Leslie Neilson) seeing his 'informant. They all ran the same way... Drebin: "Do you know anything about..." Shoeshine "Maybe I do, maybe I don't." Followed by a bribe changing hands.
I was really into spy shows and movies when I was a kid. It's carried over into adulthood. The only remake I found enjoyable so far are the Tom Cruise Mission Impossible movies. I was so in love with James Coburn and In Like Flint that I changed my phone's ringtone.Robert Vaughn and David McCallum from The Man From U.N.C.L.E.
David McCallum was also well knowN later in his career as Dr. Donald Mallard in N.C.I.S.
I liked watching Mission Impossible as a kid, but I could never follow a show. It was over my head.I liked Mission Impossible, and the movies weren't too bad, but I'm more into spy novels, or what I usually call them . . . Foreign Intrigue. There are some really good authors out there who write those types of books.
Oh, now I see why you said New England. But, you're mistaken. PA, NJ, and NY are not part of New England. Only Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut.I lived both places. Arby's was midwest.

I have no idea who owned what. But I never felt they were the same company.
My favorite homage to this show was an episode of NCIS. Agent Gibbs (played my Mark Harmon) was asked a question by Agent Kate Todd (played by Sasha Alexander). On the show, Doctor Mallard has the nickname "Ducky" and is played by David McCallum.Remember them?????? The movie remake sucked.

I don't think I ever saw a show that made that sort of reference to one of the actors/actresses characters on another show they starred in.My wife and I discussed how many in the audience would catch that reference. IMHO one of the best inside jokes on in a TV series.
Ah. I'm from the midwest (originally). To me, anything of the original 13 colonies north of Delaware was New EnglandOh, now I see why you said New England. But, you're mistaken.

I liked MI. Nimoy was on the show (Paris) and reported to Mr Phelps (Jim, wasn't it?). Also, Martin Landau (Rollin Hand) and Barbara Bain (Cinnomon). Star Trek and Space 1999 crossover. The second season of Space 1999 was binned by the same person who binned Star Trek 3rd season.I liked Mission Impossible, and the movies weren't too bad, but I'm more into spy novels, or what I usually call them . . .
