Production Notes
The show was filmed in a mixture of locations, sometimes out in San Francisco but also with a large number of scenes filmed inside a studio including scenes involving conversations inside a moving vehicle where a traffic backdrop is used. The shows were also padded out with large amounts of stock footage over San Francisco, normally featuring panning shots of the Coit Tower or regular clips of general traffic scenes.
The continuity on these shots is sometimes poor with repeated use of particular clips and details being missed. In several early episodes Sergeant Brown drives a black Ford sedan which is normally a 1965 Ford Fairlane but the next clip shows him turning up in a 1968 Ford Torino sedan.
