Saturday Night's All Right For Fighting
This short documentary was made for inclusion on the DVD release of the 2003 film "S.W.A.T." It begins and ends with an advertisement for "S.W.A.T.: The Complete First Season" on DVD. You get a good look at the TV series, with a relatively generous amount of the running time providing clips from the older show. It looks like a police drama where you could be assured a good shoot-out every week. Two of the original S.W.A.T. team contribute, Steve Forrest ("Hondo") and Rod Perry ("Deke"). According to those in the newer movie, "S.W.A.T." was a favorite show. If the original show was, as stated, "number one the first week and thereafter," its early cancellation would be difficult to comprehend; although, violent content is given as a possible reason. Ratings from the time period show "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" blowing "S.W.A.T." away.
