    And best of all I don't pay property tax...


    I did a little mini freak out when I discovered these Fleetwood "BJ and the Bear" toys in their 1980 catalog, I rarely missed the adventures of B.J. McKay and his monkey life partner. I was also fanatically loyal to Sherrif Lobo during his short run.

    The last time I saw this series was on business in Germany, you truly haven't lived until you see this series in German at 4 am...

    Man they had some crazy ideas for shows back then, didn't they?
    I used to watch this, too.
    What was that show with the orangutan? I think he was intelligent. Mr. Smith or something?

      That Show was a Classic. It's been a long time since I've seen an episode

        I too was a fan of BJ & The Bear. I often listen to the theme when enjoying MP3s on my computer. I wonder if this show is available on DVD? Guess I better find out.

            Loved the show, too. I would have been all over that truck if I had seen one in the stores back then.
            It's all good!

                Loved that show... and Lobo too... it was pure 70's cheese, kind of santitized Smokey and the Bandit... The car pile up in the Lobo title montage is still classic! A chimp named after a legendary college football coach and a BIG RIG and Greg Evigan!... what's not to love!

                  Sweet. I loved that show. That and the Dukes was good redneck TV.

                            No monkey travelling companion compares to Clyde the Orangutan, pal to one Philo Beddoe.
