Second season of "Adam 12" just out in DVD...

I shared on a post late last year that my first crush - which I didn't really know was a crush at the time - was on Kent McCord, one of the stars of the 70s police series "Adam 12."

For anyone who also loved the show (which also starred Martin Milner), you should know that its second season has just been released on DVD this week!

Here's a synopsis: Crime is on the rise in the City of Angels, with more gangs, drugs, riots and brutality pushing Officers Pete Malloy (Martin Milner) and Jim Reed (Kent McCord) to the edge. Stoned hippies, escaped convicts and ruthless snipers litter the streets - it's no surprise that the Season Two of Adam-12 features the newly formed LAPD S.W.A.T. team helping to clean up the mess. Experience the action "ride-along" style as two of L.A.'s finest cops put their lives on the line in the name of service and protection.

A spin-off of the popular NBC series Dragnet, and created and produced by Jack Webb, Adam-12 is one of the first realistic portrayals on the lives of LAPD and chronicles in striking detail and accuracy of events from real cases. Brimming with gritty realism and actions, Adam-12 was a must-see staple of television when the series aired on NBC from 1968 - 1975.

The season Two DVD box set contains all 26 action-packed episodes and a wealth of insightful bonus content including: Commentaries by The LAPD, Photo History of The LAPD and an exclusive One Adam-12 ringtone promotion. Consumers will be able to text a code into a predetermined service provider to receive the famous "One Adam-12...One Adam-12" dispatcher's call as a ringtone for their cellular phone.
