No Driving Stick on "Route 66"

No Driving Stick on "Route 66"

The folks who made the '60s TV show "Route 66" are P.O.'d that Penthouse is trying to turn their beloved show into something more along the lines of "Route 69".
Click to read the documents!
TMZ has obtained a lawsuit filed in Federal Court in L.A., alleging that the porn pushers jacked the name "Route 66" to make a porno DVD that -- as you might expect -- features "oral and anal sex". Roxbury Entertainment wants the flick 86'd.

The best part? Roxbury even suggests a new title for the skin flick, "Sex in and Around the Pink Motel." Not too shabby.

Anything to get money!!! This flick isn't goin to effect that old ass movie that no one watches anymore. I didn't know the name "Route 66" had a trademark on it and couldn't be used by anyone who wanted to use it. Its just an old ass freeway.

Isn't Route 66 the name of a highway? How can you stop someone from using that?

Route 66 was replaced by Interstate 40 but for those of us who traveled from Chicago to Santa Monica via the original Route 66 it was a trip with sites and memories that will last forever. As for a porno flick, who really cares? For those of us who traveled that 2 lane highway it will always be "The Mother Road".
