Ripcord led me to a 20 year love affair with parachuting to include military static line (Master), military free fall(HALO Jump Master) and skydiving (USPA D-8567).

You guys missed Lone Ranger! I also remember the first Flintstones cartoon which came on during the week, at night, not Saturday mornings.

You guys who are (like me) old enough to remember all those other shows, I'm surprised you've left off Superman! The one with George Reeves. I must have seen every episode when I was a kid.

Most of those shows are on daily on ME-TV. http://metvnetwork.com/

I've been dvr'ing Combat and 12 O'Clock High and have watched every eposode at least twice so far. Whirybirds , Sky King and Ripcord have never come on.

Man that guy could kill ****'s with that Thompson.
Vic Morrow's Thompson SMG was a wooden replica because he complained about the weight. Having had two in our armory when I first got onn the job in 75, I can say they were heavy. The prop people switched it out for a real one when firing was required. All the other firearms were real including Kirby's BAR.

In fact we were firing two personally owned ones at a match.
