Starsky & Hutch: (1975) 15 Weird Facts You Didn’t Know

I watched one episode and wondered which was the bottom.
Later, Soul convinced me he was the top usually.

Never watched the show.

The stunt drivers had their work cut out for them to get that boat around corners. Still a cool car.

Back in the late 1970x, I visited Circus World in Florida. One of the performers was a magician whose props included a wooden cut-out of a rabbit and his house. He introduced them as Starsky and his hutch.

David Soul got lucky he was Hutch – had he been Starsky after his Dirty Harry movie role he may have been type cast out of a work.
I saw PMG's name as director for Miami Vice and thought that was awesome of him to make that transition. And who better to direct a buddy cop show than someone who lived one so popular.
Huggy was integral to the show and I'm glad he was there for the whole thing.
I loved that car. There were a few modified where I grew up (I didn't live in CA) that were awesome, although they didn't have that paint job. And I was a great fan of those dish wheels.
I hated the anti-violence push during that era. It killed quite a few shows and cartoons. The A-Team was completely ridiculous after that treatment – hundreds of rounds fired and not a single thing hit or exploded. For S&H the episodes got more tame and even the car chases got cut back. The car was one of the stars and got less air time making it less of reason to watch the show – it's no wonder the ratings declined.
I swear, guys being close and they are gay is a stupid assumption. Both characters had hetero romantic relations during episodes disproving the "gay" thing. What's missing is that period of time guys were no longer being stoic and instead forming real bonds and it was acceptable. I was in high school during this period and my group of friends regularly showed physical but not sexual affection with hugs, shoulder bumps, and just proximity. Several of us are still close and on the occasions where we can meet it starts with big hugs. Some may think it gay comparing it to today but it was just people showing they cared about each other more than just another person they encounter daily. My opinion of people who think otherwise is they never got close to others and are missing out on life.

🎬📽👀🙂👍 Still the best cop serie ever made ❤❤❤❤ Starsky and Hutch….always in my ♥ heart😊😊

We used to call it "starter and clutch"

It was my favorite childhood cop drama. My parents liked shows like Streets of San Francisco, McCloud, and Kojak, but this was one we all liked.

That is so funny. The clip from the HuggyBear spinoff where Turkey is pointing a gun you can clearly see that the gun is out of ammo because the slide is all the way back showing an empty chamber and the tube fully visible.

i didnt know they were gay, not that anything is wrong with that!

Wasn't Adam 12 "buddy cop?" It aired long before those Torino brothers.

We never missed an episode when I was a child ❤. Thank you for sharing this ❤

My brother took me to see this when I was 3. Probably a "if you're going, take your sister" situation. All I remember of the movie is that car. Edit: It wasn't this. It was the movie version, and definitely wasn't 1975, cuz I wouldn't have been born yet.
