What about the car? The car was pretty memorable, mainly for the getting in and out through the windows.

Legs insured for a million dollars. Back when that was a lot of money.
I was only watching an episode the other day, stands up pretty well if you ask me. First couple of seasons do anyway. Proper escapist fun.
At some point TV shows stopped being entertainment and became lectures on diversity, inclusion, alternative lifestyles, feminism, and other tedious shite. Everything is so serious now, and so obviously conscious of it too. That's why I pretty much never watch anything made after about 1995.

I'm glad you haven't seen 'Unforgotten' then. What a load of absolute crap! Standard writing these days; white men are all kiddy fiddlers, any male member of the church is obviously a child rapist, all minorities are holier than thou, all good things are done by minorities, all white people are nasty criminals, all police are inept and over emotional (and come with a damaged relationship / damaged marriage / damaged kids / damaged parents) etc etc etc.
Utter garbage, complete piffle, and an embarrassment to screen writers and police officers everywhere.
I just stared at my phone whilst the other half watched through it all. What was a shame is that there were some excellent actors in all the series; Nicola Walker, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Trevor Eve, Neil Morrissey, Kevin McNally, James Fleet, Clare Goose - to name but a few. Obviously there purely for gravy train purposes.

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

Things may be rather the other way around. Unlikely as it will seem in this age of 'political overcorrectness', the government actually publish figures on Crime and Ethnicity. The statistics are as one might anticipate. A bit of Googling reveals all..........tricky to find though!
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
Interesting read though no doubt.

Funny, my sister bought me a DVD of it as a joke a couple of Christmases ago because I loved it as a kid. Two things struck me on watching it:
(1) I must have been quite young when I watched it originally, as my only recollection of Daisy Duke was annoyance that she took screen time away from the General Lee.
(2) I don’t remember it being as rubbish as I found it!
I think Knight Rider has aged far better, frankly.
Engineers: fixing problems you didn't know you had in ways you don't understand.
thought they were all crap tbh, but i guess i was maybe older, and catherine bach was probably the best bit. oddly a few days ago my sonn wanted me to pick up the a team on dvd for him. i got him a full set used on the bay for £19
