ETV's "Drive-Ins and Soda Shops" takes a nostalgic look at a bygone era. ETV crews spent the summer in a 1957 Chevy cruising the Palmetto State in search of that nostalgic time in America when soda jerks were kings of the drug store and tickets to the movies were by the carload. Along the way, they met hundreds of South Carolinians eager to join the ride and share their memories and memorabilia from the 1950's and '60s. By visiting the few remaining old-fashioned pharmacies and drive-ins that were once so widespread in South Carolina, ETV explores these links to the past that have had such a profound impact on people's lives. The restaurants visited include: the Beacon Drive-In in Spartanburg, the Sno-Cap Drive-In in North Augusta, the Sky View Drive-In in Florence, The Highway 21 Drive-In in Beaufort, the "Big Mo" Monetta Drive-In Theatre in Monetta, Guerin's Pharmacy in Summerville, Hiott's Drug Store in Walterboro, and Pitt Street Pharmacy in Mt. Pleasant.
