You see Hopper( “Paul Drake’’) smoking cigarettes in the courthouse, in Mason's office. Man, even as a kid I remember adults doing that. I especially enjoy Ray Collins as the snarky "Lt Tragg'' and William Talman as the frequently frustrated and cantankerous "Hamilton Berger'' as the DA. Mason is almost always tripping him up.
Some of this is due to sponsors but I think they were often big smokers back then.i have been watching twilight zone. Rod was always smoking . Just saw one where the guy said he had to go take a call on a video phone
But we still don’t have a robot as good as The Body Electric
That show was fixated on aliens
