TV Talk: Day 40

Tv show: 21 Jump Street

Aired: April 12th, 1987 – April 27th, 1991

About: It’s about a group of young police officers who go undercover to investigate crimes in various teenage venues. It also goes into certain topics which I won’t list here.

Would I recommend: Yes, I would. Young Johnny Depp is in it and it’s really cool.

Other Info: There was a spin-off called Booker which lasted one season. There are also two movies 21 Jump Street and 22 Jump Street.

Extra Info: There are DVDs of the show 21 Jump Street out there but your most likely going to find the Mill Creek Version. Anchor Bay Entertainment used to sell the DVDs but they are out of print and have been discontinued in 2010, so if you have any of those DVDs in your collection they are rare. You can also check e-bay and amazon since they sell the DVDs there. You can also go to thrift shops if you are lucky enough to find them. There are also French and German versions of 21 Jump Street as well on DVD.

Additional Info: Due to low ratings, the show was cancelled after Season 4 on Fox. It was then moved to syndication for Season 5 (The Final Season) on other Fox affiliates. Oh, and Johnny Depp left the show after Season Four.

Fun Fact: Holly Robinson who plays Judy Hoffs on the show, sang the theme song with Johnny Depp and Peter DeLuise doing the Jump section of the theme song.
