Seems you think this show is called "Vic" not "Longmire."

Also, the golden ring that is Chevrolet will soon lose its luster since we know what happens to the American auto industry starting in the 1970s.

My initial thought was that they were pitching for the Camaro - especially cause of Don's reference to the Mustang. But I'm not sure since it initially did come out in 1966.  In fact, based on this brochure for the 1969 Chevrolet line, it doesn't look like Chevy launched a new nameplate that year.

The episode had me hooked as soon as Paige was whining about wanting more leg warmers. Oh the 80s. And how great was Phillip when he "disarmed" Jerry without spilling the drunken New Englander's wine.

I was nine in late winter/early spring of 1981, so the kids story line probably resonated more with me than with some other viewers. I remember being scared to death of strangers and their cars - I remember child abduction fears as being a thing, getting free fingerprints done by the police in case I was abducted,

I need video or at least a gif of Carol/Cheryl doing monkey chants when Mitzi answers the phone. One of the first smackdowns of racist Spanish football  fans that I've seen in American pop culture.

For those wanting to learn more about life behind the Iron Curtain, Anne Applebaum's "Iron Curtain: The Crushing of Eastern Europe" was published last year and seems to focus manly on life on the streets as opposed to the politics of it all.
