ASPiRE has acquired all five seasons (124 episodes) of cool crime drama series The Mod Squad. The series will debut Monday, January 4, launching "Mod Squad Mondays" from 2 to 8pm EST. All three members of The Mod Squad
were on probation when they were recruited for a special "Youth Squad"
to infiltrate the counterculture and ferret out criminals. The series
stars Michael Cole (Mr. Brooks) as Pete Cochran, Peggy Lipton (Psych) as Julie Barnes, Clarence Williams III (Lee Daniels' The Butler, American Gangster)
as Linc Hayes and the late Tige Andrews as Captain Adam Greer. Cole,
Lipton and Williams were billed as the hippest cops on TV. The series
premiered on ABC in 1968 and earned six Emmy Award nominations and four
Golden Globe nominations (including one win). A 1970 episode, "Mother of
Sorrow," was ranked #95 on TV Guide's "100 Greatest Episodes of All
Time."
