Fun Facts

Wilcox Ave. sign above Larry's head
  • During the opening chase, the blue MG turns into a small alley, which is located here, on the west side of Ivar. Ave. View in Google Maps
  • After the opening credits, when we see a close-up of Ponch and Jon, they are passing Wilcox Ave. (as they are headed south on Cahuenga Blvd.) and the street sign passes above Larry's head.
  • We learn that Ponch has two brothers named Robert and Martin. They live in Chicago.
  • Ponch and Jon meet Getraer at an Arby's. This is the Arby's at Sunset Blvd. and Tamarind Ave., which still appears to have the old style "hat" sign. View in Google Maps
  • The rally checkpoint is at this location on Via Marina at Tahiti Way. The building across Via Marina is still there. View in Google Maps
  • The last bank that is robbed is at Sepulveda Blvd. and Slauson Ave. (Knightsbridge Ave., seen on a sign, is one block east of this intersection). View in Google Maps.
  • The chase after the last bank heist passes through this location at the intersection of 6th St. and Imperial St. View in Google Maps

Mistakes

  • During the opening credits, Poncherello is misspelled "Poncharello" when "Anna Navarro as Mrs. Poncharello" is shown.
  • When the bank robber pursuit passes Ponch and Jon, they turn from Vine St. to Yucca St. There is one person standing on the corner. After they go around the corner, there are 4 or more people visible on the same corner. The chase then jumps to the intersection of Selma Ave. and Ivar Ave.
Wig store stunt ramp
  • When the pink car goes up the curb toward the wig shop window, the camera angle abruptly changes and a small ramp becomes clearly visible at the curb.
  • When Cahill joins the pursuit of the blue MG after the second bank robbery, she refers to herself as "Seven Mary Charles."
  • The last bank that is robbed is not near Century and Western as discussed at the station.
  • Getraer presents Ponch with a safety citation for "one year service without an accident"; however, just 5 episodes prior (Down Time), he injures his pinky finger when he lays down his bike during a chase. Getraer asked Ponch to take his vacation because of the injury. Apparently Getraer forgot about this incident.
