They don't make shows like this anymore.

I live in a mountainous area where some driveways go straight up (and down), but I always got vertigo watching Streets of San Fran and the movie Bullitt. There is just no way I would ever drive a car there.

I am old enough to remember having watched all of those shows. Egads!! I remember Karl Malden from Streetcar Named Desire, Cincinnati Kid etc. 97 is a ripe old age. Good for him!!

I saw on the news he was married to the same wife for 70 years, too! That's amazing for a Hollywood actor.
