Starsky & Hutch (1975) .....
Mood :
I just finished watching the pilot and the 1st episode of S & H Season 1 (I know I know... I had the DVDs for months and only managed to find time to watch it today).
God! I forgot how much I really loved the series! Can you imagine? After 29 years, and the plots were still so engaging. There were so many buddy teams in numerous TV-cops shows, but Paul & David got to be the best team ever! The chemistry between the 2 was fantastic! I'm still as much a fan now as when I was in the 70's.
I wonder if I could get hold of Starsky's sweater.

Pilot Episode
A young couple was having a little fun in a Red White-striped Torino in the midddle of the night. 2 hitman shot them at point blank. Word on the street was that Starsky was to be wasted. Another guy was shot dead in a 2nd attempt to kill the two. But it turned out that the whole thing was staged by the district attorney to lead the duo into thinking the deaths were case of mistaken identities. It was in fact a cover-up so that no one would give 2nd thoughts on the girl who died.
Episode 1 Savage Sunday
After years of futile appeals to improve the living conditions of their retirement home, an elderly couple decided on a drastic move. They planted 12 sticks of dynamite in the car boot, planning to blow up the city hall. 2 thugs stole their car for a Sunday robbery spree, not knowing that the bomb was set to go off at 5pm. Starsky & Hutch had 4 hours to hunt down the car. Starsky saved the day with some great driving and the last minute leap from the car whereas Hutch caught the 2 thugs with his superb marksmanship.
