CHiPs - Return Of The Turks (1978) - Filming Locations
Two men ram 22(!) cars on the highway and refuse to stop when Ponch and Jon chase them through the streets of downtown Culver City, California.
Where exactly was this chase scene from CHiPs filmed? The chase runs past the historic movie studio (today known as the Culver Studios) on the 9300 block of Washington Blvd, past the landmark Culver Hotel at 9400 Culver Blvd - by this time converted to low-rent apartments and looking quite seedy - and east on Culver Blvd ending at Media Park.
Comparing Culver City as it looked in this 1978 episode of CHiPs to how the area looked when Charley Chase, Laurel and Hardy and Nat Carr filmed here in the 1920s and 1930s - the decline is very apparent.
