    Memories of Search

    This was one of my favorite shows of the Super70s that nobody I now know can remember. It was so cool with the gadgets and secret agent stuff that only nowdays can be believable. I was enthralled watching it and always imagined being one of the agents with Burgess Meredith watching my every move. I hope someday we can get videos of this show!

    I love this short lived series it was unique because at the time it was new to use computers to solve crimes. I started watching it because I liked Doug McClures character of Trampas on the Virginian. My favorite episode is "A Honeymoon To Kill", with Luciana Paluzzi. It was a good clean action show without a lot of violence. I only wish that I could see one episode of this show again.

    Search was my favorite show because it was years ahead of its' time. Even though it was primarily sci-fi, there are so many aspects of the show that can be seen today in common use. Search was the perfect blend of action, spy-type intrigue, and comedy. The classic scenes with Cameron getting onto Lockwood because he would conveniently lose his scanner when he was busy with a girl were hilarious. When, oh when, will this show be available for purchase?!?

    Oh thank heavens I'm not alone one this show. For a while I thought I dreamt it, being very young and staying up late could do this. I recall the movie pilot starred a blond bombshell who would soon after star in the movie Marathon Nan opposite Dustin Hoffman . . . what was her name?

    My favorite memory of the show was an ep where the agent was after someone and ended up chartering a Boeing 747 to follow them. . . . Boy was Probe Control pissed!!

    I absolutley loved this short lived series. It was definstly ahead of its time. If I had to choose my favorite episode it would have to be the pilot movie PROBE. Hugh O'Brien was great as Probe Agent Skip Lockwood. I believe besides Burgess Meredith apart of the cast there was a beautiful actress name Angel Tompkins that was one of the probe control techs. Imagine using computers to solve crimes. Today, it seems so ordinary but in the early Super70s it was the bomb and I loved it. I only wish I can see all the episodes again
