@IanAMartin @catsalad they wanted to put him in a Pontiac Trans Am, and he said naw, it wouldn't fit the character, so he got a plain Firebird. The clock on the dash was probably not in alphabetic order.
@the_turtle @catsalad It seems odd that a Firebird and a Trans Am would be seen as different personality types, but being alive at that point I can reassure myself (and anyone else who might care) that they really were.

@IanAMartin @catsalad i think it was mostly that James Garner saw the character as more of a working stiff and the Trans Am upgrade would cost the character a lot more than the character would spend, particularly if they went whole hog and got the 455 High Output engine and all. Kinda like if they gave Columbo a Lancia instead of that gray old Peugeot 403 that looked like it leaked.

@the_turtle Excellent explanation. He might drive a Dodge of some sort, for instance, but it wouldn’t be a Charger for the reason as the Firebird / Trans Am you explained. Makes perfect sense.

@eljorgeabides @the_turtle @catsalad They explained the cars and the cigarette boats by claiming they were all ‘seized assets’ that the cops were using as cover.
…sure…

@catsalad We gotta start installing these just to fuck with people
@ocean I think more efficient for that would be clocks where the numbers are moved clockwise one position, so where 1 usually is, is 12 and where 2 usually is is 1. with this clock you'd immediately notice something is wrong, with a slightly wrong clock you need to pay attention to it and then you'll be even madder

@the_turtle @eljorgeabides @catsalad The best thing was waiting for Edward James Almos to stare stoically out a window, raise a walkie-talkie to his mouth, and say “…go!” Excellent stuff, and guaranteed to happen no less frequently than in every other episode.

@IanAMartin @eljorgeabides @catsalad somebody should make a supercut of that, like they did for "Mad Men" .

@the_turtle @eljorgeabides @catsalad Somewhere just past the ½-way point, I thought ‘is this a loop, or…’ and then what were clearly fresh moments appeared.
Genius.
