This is a clip I found on YouTube of Don Johnson guest-starring in a 1972 episode (“Endtheme”) of The Bold Ones: The New Doctors (1969-1973). I’ve never seen the show before (although I’ve heard of it), nor this full episode. But Don is pretty young...and singing!

Picked it up off Evilbay for $11.00 shipped still sealed. While it’s not the 86 version (molded in black) which I still have since I was a kid, I couldn’t resist the price! Let’s see where this goes! Camera car build? The built one is my original 86 version I got in 86 & has since been rebuilt after it was wrecked sitting in storage over 20 years.

My first reaction was "When did we switch to 'Saved by the Bell' episodes??"

Sorry, that’s not it but good guess!

I just looked it up on IMDB. His first role was the lead in a 1970 film called The Magic Garden of Stanley Sweetheart. It’s apparently based on a 60’s novel about the sexual coming of age of a young film school dropout in New York. The Bold Ones episode was his 5th role and the Kung Fu episode in 1973 was shortly after that. He was almost 24. He really did look young!

Awesome! Thanks for sharing! I’m not a big fan of that folky 60s-70s style music, but some is good.

Yes, he played a Native American boy. I’ve seen it, but he wasn’t that young. The episode was in the early 70’s and he was born at the end of 1949. He did look quite young though. I don’t believe he acted in anything in Hollywood until after a year at KU then studying acting in San Francisco. So maybe when he was 20, about 1970.

I saw him at about 14-15 in a Kung Fu episode. Surprised me.

Ok...I can't swear to this because I don't want to be put in a funny farm for talking to myself in the bathroom, but if I were to do a how to video, from everything to the proper way to cut it, to the styling, would there be any interest ?

Another piece of trivia. Lucille Ball was the CEO of the studio that gave the green light to produce this series. When the idea was given to her by the creators she mistakenly thought the show was going to be a variety show staring the top Hollywood performers of the day. Little did she know she was responsible for producing an enduring classic.

I’m not sure if this has been posted before, but here is the original uncut “By Hooker By Crook” love/murder scene. It’s dubbed in Italian but you still see everything you couldn’t see on DVD/Blu/streaming. It’s interesting to see the parallels between the two scenes.

Yes we had it earlier already but thanks anyway! What is mysterious about this clip: the full length scene was only broadcasted once- in the original NBC airing. That Night it was when NBC censors allegedly found out that the producers did not cut as agreed before airing (Dick Wolf denied that-he said in an interview that they had Cut as agreed but NBC probably got some viewer calls and extended their cuts accordingly) and NBC took their contractual right of final cut and cut the scene for all subsequent airings (re-runs, syndication) and also for the DVD/BluRay Masters later on that were based on the TV masters. In Europe and in Italy the 1987 episodes were bought and aired much later than in the US. MV started in most European countries in 1986 with the first season. So how come that Italian TV had the first airing master tape for dubbing and airing that nobody else has except people with a VCR at home in February 1987???

Hey, no problem! I thought it was a very odd song at first but it grew on me as well! It does seem like a Cronenberg film! Great song! Phil Collins does the drums!

Thanks Tony for starting the thread and thank you guys & gals for your Birthday wishes! @Dadrian thanks for your words. Well, my vice days are far past, but I like to go back to them once in a while ;-) @RedDragon86 Cool nickname & avatar, from one of my fave movies ever ;-)

Here's a shot of my under-body and you can see a portion of the gas tank above the exhaust pipes on either side. The tank sits up high, literally right under the trunk and thereby limits the height of the trunk space to little more than the depth of a small suitcase.

Another interesting tid bit w/ this MV kit... the damn license plate is still wrong! This is the back of my original 86/87 Daytona w/ the incorrect plate ZAO178 (should be ZAQ178) w/ the new decal kit from the 2013 kit. Not sure how this slipped by QC! Lol Also, the original kit says Ferrari on the rear trunk lid. That is missing on the 2013 kit.
