Anyone remember the 80's TV show "CHiPs", centered around two california highway patrol motorcycle officers, "Ponch and John". When I was 11 years old, the show made total sense. Now twenty four years later, I look back and wonder what in god's name two freeway ticket givers were off doing playing detective all the time- getting fingerprints off stuff, breaking up rings of insurance fraudsters, going undercover into biker gangs, helping to evacuate a roller disco before the poison gas went off. Really, what the fuck were they thinking?

Their popped collar and perfumed off duty mode when they juggled their romantic interests and put a fresh coast of wax on the Firebird seems reasonable in retrospect, but seriously- how did the writers figure these guys should be overachieving CSI's on motorcycles?
