Two years before Hill Street Blues redefined the cop genre as a mesh of overlapping storylines and workaday frustrations, Aaron Spelling's Starsky & Hutch capped a five-year run (1975-1979) portraying LA's finest as madly heroic creatures of reckless determination and physicality. The Complete First Season reminds us how startlingly brutal this primetime series could be while maintaining a delightful, often incongruous, self-deprecating humor.
From the series pilot on, partners and best pals Starsky and Hutch work a fine line between predator and prey, relentlessly pursuing suspects while also snared by crime chieftains or short-sighted superiors. In "The Fix," Hutch's secret romance with the former girlfriend of a mafia boss (Robert Loggia) results in the lawman's kidnapping and forced addiction to heroin. Similarly, in "A Coffin for Starsky," a mad chemist injects the wisecracking cop with a slow-acting but lethal poison. "Jo-Jo," written by Michael Mann, finds our guys at loggerheads with federal officers over a dumb deal the G-Men make with a serial rapist.
The 23 episodes in this set are all fun, if sometimes shocking, viewing. Expect each character to take as much abuse as he dishes out. Still, the comic sight of Starsky and Hutch (in "Death Notice") trying to conduct business amidst busy strippers is well worth the surrounding violence. --Tom Keogh

Starsky and Hutch-The Complete First Season DVD
Great job, throughout the DVD package. 20 hours of Starsky and Hutch has me rewinding my memory of when I was seven years old and watching the cops catch the bad guys. Twenty three episodes from 1975. The original pilot with Richard Ward playing Captain Dobey. Richard Ward played the father in Steve Martin's The Jerk, but I remember him most in Brubaker, the Redford movie where he played a prisoner that had served too much time and coffin maker for the previous warden. Gordon Jump also is in the pilot as a gym owner, before his jobs at WKRP and the Maytag repairman. It has interviews of the creater William Blinn, Antonio Fargas, David Soul, and Paul Michael Glazer. It even has a fan, who purchased one of the Torino's used for the show. I didn't know the Gran Torino had a 460 engine. Also, it has the tv promo spots telling about the next show. That isn't done like it used to be, with the stars from the show teasing you about the next show. Thanks to Amazon for delivering fast and with no problems. Starsky and Hutch fans this is it, you are gonna love this set. Now, it is time to start pressing for The Six Million Dollar Man set. Where's Steve Austin, Oscar Goldman, and Lindsey Wagner? An astronaut barely alive, we have the technology to rebuild him, better, faster, stronger.......Where else could you see an astronaunt fighting Bigfoot!!
