Adam-12 (TV Series) Clear with a Civilian: Part 2 (1973) User Reviews

Fast-paced episode

[tforbes-2 · 10/10 · 21 March 2020]

"Clear with a Civilian: Part 2" is truly another fine episode of the series, which clearly maintained its quality during its seven-year run. It benefits from a fine cast, which includes Rose Marie, Juanita Moore and Burt Mustin. Special kudos for Ms. Moore for her role as Police Commissioner Edna Dixon! She really brings both warmth and toughness to her role.

Watching it on Me-TV in March 2020, 47 years after it first aired, I'm struck by how fast paced the episode is. It benefits from a tight Stephen J. Cannell script, as well as tight direction by Dennis Donnelly. The night scenes add to the overall effective mood of the episode.

Clearly an enjoyable watch!
