I do believe it's a scene from the theme song of the Stephen Cannell series "Riptide".

I believe you are correct sir... That was the first thing that came to my mind. I loved that show - being a self proclaimed nerd, Boz (and Ro-Boz) was my favorite!

Right-o! To answer the second part, they're waving at Nick in his pink helicopter the Screaming Mimi.

Awesome! The first thing I thought of was either RIPTIDE or MAGNUM P.I., but I really thought it was RIPTIDE.

I was too late to say Riptide! But it's good to know I wasn't alone in loving this show.

I just remebered something... Didn't these gals run the charter yacht business next to the Riptide Detective Agency's own boat?
Yeah - the chopper was nicknamed The Screamin' Mimi, and they traveled in a GMC Jimmy that had the roof removed ala Bronco II.

Why can't they just rerun great old shows like Riptide instead of yet another stupid reality show? Shows like that were simple entertainment.

Great, now I'm going to have the words "Screaming Mimi" playing over and over in my head.
Screaming Mimi
Screaming Mimi
Screaming Mimi
Screaming Mimi
My brain just loves the sounds of that...
And oh yeah, Riptide was THE BOMB.

Answer: yup, it's from Riptide, which ran on NBC for three seasons starting in 1984.
