I watched Prison Break on Netflix and seasons 1 and 2 show a Hunter Green GW quite a bit.

Quantum Leap. Episode 15, Season 2. "Her Charm"

Jeep appears in the beginning of the show during the opening shoot out.

Oddly enough, it's a newer 80's style FSJ, even though the episode takes place in 1973.

I spotted this one yesterday while watching old army training films.
Also spotted an orange narrow-track Cherokee in another training film titled 'US Army basic training in the 80s' but didn't get the screenshot.

I've seen a bunch in commercials lately. But If anyone watches FantomWorks on Velocity channel there was a dark blue GW in the background when they were talking about the Studebaker. Season 3, Episode 5.

Watching 48 hours the movie and saw a white Jeep, maybe Cherokee Chief roll through the intersection right after Nick Nolte first gets in his Caddy and starts to drive.

Not sure if thsi was posted yet, but there was a blue grand wagoneer in the movie drag me to hell. I just saw the movie and got upset when they used a rare wagoneer as the vehicle of choice for her to back into at 40mph in the parking garage.. why not use some pos explorer or something

Apparently, Hollywood has them in abundance, or something. If you see a FSJ in a movie, there's a 95% chance it will be destroyed by the end of the movie.

Steven King movies always seem to feature an FSJ. In the film Misery, Cathy Bates, the psycho drives a Cherokee...of course.
