Trivia
Burt Reynolds recommended his friend Robert Urich to producer Aaron Spelling for this show. Reynolds and Urich were both alumni of Florida State University. Although this show lasted only two seasons, Spelling remembered Urich and later cast him in Vega$ (1978), which had a longer run.

Goofs
The police cars have an emblem on the doors that reads "W.C. Police Department Founded 1751." There were no police departments in California in 1751. The Philadelphia Police Department is America's oldest police department. It was founded in 1751.

my view point

When I was a kid, that's what the viewers wanted in the police show. At the time the most realistic police show was Adam-12. In the 1960's and 1970's, Jack Webb produced the most realistic shows on television. Aaron Spelling did his thing even back then. One thing about SWAT was that they did function as a team.
