The Cannonball Run (1981) Burt Reynolds, Roger Moore, Farrah Fawcett, Dom DeLuise, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., and many more.
That's RIGHT! There was a lot of lighting goodness in Cannonball Run. Especially the cheap-o Dietz Omni-Chief bars on the NJ State Police car and the lousy CHP replica seen here. I love that damn ambulance. Dual AeroDynics. And that's when the AeroDynic was still a fairly new product on the market.

The thing I liked about both of those shows is that they were about uniformed cops. Another good one was 'The Rookies', a series that ran in the early 1970s."Hill Street Blues"
"Adam-12"
I totally agree. Hill Street Blues wasn't a cop show, per se. It was a drama in the setting of a police precinct. Whereas SWAT, Adam-12, Rookies, CHiPs... those were cop shows. But you have to admit that Veronica Hamel (who played Joyce Davenport) was hot as hell.The thing I liked about both of those shows is that they were about uniformed cops.

I watched Adam-12 and the Rookies, but I couldn't get into Hill Street Blues. The love affair between Frank Furillo and Joyce Davenport made me feel bored with the show very quickly .
She was, but I thought Barbara Bosson (who played Furillo's ex-wife) had a prettier face.I totally agree. Hill Street Blues wasn't a cop show, per se.

C'mon guise!
Engine and Squad 51!
Amazing it took so long for someone to add "Emergency!" trucks. CLASSIC. I just started watching this show again on Netflix. I also visited station 51 (which is still a functioning LACoFD post... Station 127) in Carson CA about four years ago.
I wondered if someone would mention CHiPs! I got to meet Larry Wilcox in Lubbock in 1988 when he and his son Darren were there for an international go-kart race week that my ambulance service worked. Super-nice guy!
