CHiPs (Seasons 1–6)

CHiPs (1977) is the classic American motorcycle-cop series you can watch online on iFILM. Two California Highway Patrol officers ride the Los Angeles freeways, chase down reckless drivers, work crash scenes, and keep stumbling into trouble that turns a routine call into a pursuit or a small slice of drama.

The heart of the show is the odd-couple pairing. Jon Baker (Larry Wilcox) is calm and by-the-book to a fault, while hot-headed charmer Frank "Ponch" Poncherello, played by Erik Estrada, bends every rule and grins his way out of it. Their bickering and easy friendship carry the show as much as the bike stunts and big freeway pileups the era loved. Watch the early episodes and you'll spot future stars — Michael Dorn here years before he became Worf on Star Trek.

The series ran six seasons on NBC through 1983 and became a nostalgic icon of seventies TV: sunshine, motorcycles, sharp uniforms and unshakable good cheer. Stream every season of CHiPs online on iFILM.
