    Nice, man.

    I used to love that show. Most (not all) of the episodes link off that site.

    All the shows from that time period had the same guitar solo in the theme song, classic.

    Salami was the original Spicoli.



    To anyone who doesn't understand the reference: Shut the fuk up, put on your helmet and ride you bike to school. You're late.

    Love the show as a kid. The theme music was so cool. The music was half the charm.

    The other half was that it passed the eye test. Ken Howard as Kenny Reeves, the ex-NBA player turned coach, worked. Coolidge and Hayward and maybe 1 or 2 others looked like legit players.

    I forgot how far-fetched some of the plots were. And the acting was borderline terrible.

    The racial interaction was fairly legitimate, the type of things that were believable. That said, the typecasting of the ethnicities was hilarious:
    * Abner Goldstein as the Jew
    * Go-go Gomez as the Mexican
    * Salami as the Italian
