    Jumpsuit’s tag-along son, Fedora, was my favorite part of that show. He was so cute – just like a mini version of his dad!

    Isn’t the guy on the right wearing the standard-issue Federation outfit from Star Trek: The Motionless Picture?

    Oh, and I think I remember Jumpsuit and Hoody. Wasn’t it on Tuesday nights, after the Happy Days / Laverne & Shirley / Mork & Mindy block?

    Remember when the chief was yelling at them “I got the DA breathing down my neck, Jumpsuit! You’re a loose cannon!”

    I think the ‘thumbs up’ high sign was popularized by Jumpsuit. I don’t remember Hoody’s sign off, was it a two finger salute from his forehead? MT
