The 70's black sheep squadron

Sign in to disble this ad
I was watching TV the other day at work and there was this show on called black sheep squadron from the 70's. I was born i the 80's so this is before my time. But anyways i couldnt help but notice that the field next to where the airstrip was on this TV show was absolutely full of gigantic flowering marijuana plants. I grew up in an area where i know what weed looks like. I thought that was pretty interseting. Anybody know where that show was filmed or has anyone else noticed the enormous pot plants that were blantantly filmed?

Whoa! I watched that show all the time when I was little, but at the time I had no idea what a mature pot plant would look like.

They could have been hops plants. I think they are grown in Valencia.

Hops (for brewing beer) are a very close relative to Marijuana plants.

My Dad knew that cat, and it seems he was the brave, hard-fighting, hard-drinking, woman chaser that the show portrayed.

The show was originally called "Baa Baa Black Sheep," but I suppose many people drew the wrong inferences from that title.
