Am I delusional or did that wheelchair chase really happen?, 15 March 2008

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

This episode was totally off the wall; the plot consists of Ironside going undercover (his ingenious disguise consists of; a beanie - huh?) at a nursing home where old folks are being bumped off.

Ironside goes all cat-burglar-sqe while snooping for evidence and nearly gets caught (read suspense) but manages to hide his 300lb butt behind a door. With a decent stretch of the imagination you could imagine missing a fat beanie wearing wheelchair bound detective 'hiding' behind the door in the dark but surely the heavy breathing and the trail of Twinkie wrappers might get the ol' spidey sense tingling? Luckily the show fast forwards (or was that me?) to the show down. Ironbutt confronts the killer who makes a run for it; queue car chase. On a technical note: is it a car chase when one of the vehicles is actually a wheelchair? is it still a chase when it mainly consists of a lot of gear grinding while the car tries to reverse over Ironside who hides between park cars? something that BTW, could never happen nowadays with bumper parking enforced.

This was the most ridiculous (and hilarious) episode of Ironside and further proof that aliens stole your dad's brains in 1971 - wow.
