Bronk (1975–1976)
Typical series from the seventies, but with a surprising final episode.

Warning: Spoilers
This show existed among dozens of other crime series as we could find during this era. Dozens. Palance always gives strong performances and the stories are all action packed. The evil characters are well chosen and the audience never gets bored. In summary, the entertainment that you can expect if you are a TV series buff. You don't find such episodes, such topics, in today TV shows. But it will never emerge from the quantity of series you may have watched forty years ago. It was never aired in France, and I am surprised as far as there was many many American series of this kind in my country. Series not better than this one. I guess it would have been a hit in France if it was shown. The only interesting thing about this show is the last episode, where the lead character is not Palance but Vic Morrow, a private eye hired by a woman to stop a dangerous serial killer played by Cameron Mitchell. Palance appears just at the beginning, just after arresting Morrow for chasing on his playground, and letting him go hunting the evil guy Mitchell... We only see Palance during the first fifteen minutes of the FINAL episode. THAT'ALL. I find this very offbeat, unusual, curious for a TV show, don't you?
