"Heartbreaker" is a song by American singer #PatBenatar from her debut #studioAlbum #InTheHeatOfTheNight (1979). Written and composed by Geoff Gill and Cliff Wade, the song had first been recorded by English singer #JennyDarren on her 1978 album Queen of Fools, and Benatar adjusted the original lyrics, as such references as "A to Zed" and "moonraker" would have likely confused American listeners.

📺 Spring 1989: NBC aired #Hunter on Saturdays, in the final hour of prime time, after #TheGoldenGirls and #EmptyNest. Against it, CBS had #West57th while ABC aired #MurphysLaw.

📺 In terms of ratings, #Hunter was just outside NBC’s scripted Top 10 for the 1988-1989 TV season. It was at #11 between #InTheHeatOfTheNight (#10) and #NightCourt (#12).

One of the most powerful images of race I retained from childhood is Virgil Tibbs being slapped, then immediately slapping Enicott back, making the gutless sack of shit cry.

From the Facebook account: Do you remember when

This picture is of 50th anniversary of #CBSTV IN 1978, if you recognize 5 of them you are old. I recognize at least 10 people, than I must really begin to be old. #Kojak #hawaiifiveo #Cannon #Intheheatofthenight #MASH #TheCarolBurnetShow #TheWaltons #BarnabyJones

The second sexiest thing in #InTheHeatOfTheNight is Colbert’s convertible Oldsmobile. #TCMParty

Eldon Quick plays Charlie Hawthorn, the crime scene photographer, in #InTheHeatOfTheNight. He played the inhumanly humorless bureaucrat Captain Sloan in 2 #MASH episodes. #TCMParty

YEAH! OH, YEAH!
NO one dials it up to 11 like Rod Steiger did.

Watching the credits to #InTheHeatOfTheNight, I am reminded that Walter Mirisch—WHO IS STILL WITH US!!!—has given us many fine films. I saw one at @musicboxtheatre today—Billy Wilder’s hilariously frenetic #OneTwoThree. #TCMParty

The Organization is the final film in the Virgil Tibbs trilogy.

It all started with the adaptation of “In the Heat of The Night” then “They Call Me Mr Tibbs!”. All of them are based on the novel series by John Ball but don’t stick too much to them after Night.

Though the sequels don’t stand out as much as the phenomenal Night, Sidney Poitier is still wonderful to watch as the Lieutenant solving murders in San Francisco way before Don Siegel’s Dirty Harry and with way more smarts and class.

What stands out in part three here are the opening and closing scenes that are executed without dialogue and purely visual.

Also the score, heck any 70s crime film score, rocks out with that funky bass that I love so much from back then. The score is even used for sound fx.

Terrifyingly this film could be set in present day America

I LOVE the squishy Sparta mayor (the beloved William Schallert) implying that Sherriff Gillespie might just be some kinda closeted lover of Black people. A very common tactic used by whites against other whites to stymie any efforts to be an ally. #InTheHeatOfTheNight #TCMParty

Endicott is just the classic white supremacist. He launches, unprompted, into a monologue of racist BS, to a Black man, with no concern for the consequences, as that is the natural order of things, #InTheHeatOfTheNight #TCMParty
