    Super Seventies: Return of the Mod Squad!
    Return of the Mod Squad (1979) was a made-for-t.v. return for the young hip bunch of narcos. This time around it's a serious case for the gang. One sleazy rich dude has napped Peggy Lipton. Who has done this and way? Clarence Willaims III and the rest of the "mods" are back on the case to find one of their own. IS it any good? Well if you were a fan of this show either during it's initial run of repeats then this'll be a nice treat. But if you were the casual viewer of the show (like myself) you might not be as impressed. The movie is entertaining and I have to recommend it for fans of the show. It was nice however to see the gang back in action one last time.

    For die hards or completest only.
