Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaA shot of a card Kojak's shows the number to the San Francisco Police Dept. Unlike the normal practice of using fake 555 numbers, this one is real and is still in use (but not by the S.F. Police). It's possible it was the actual Police Dept. phone number in 1976.
- GoofsWhen Weaver uses the hotel phone a quick shot of the phone showed area code "213" which is Los Angeles , the actual film location, rather than area code of "212" which would have been NYC where Kojak was set in.
Featured review
The Outageous Early '70s On Display
Looking back at the early-to-mid '70s, you can't help but cringe or laugh at the crazy time period, as this episode demonstrates. In here, it's the dress and the expressions of the day among blacks, but the same can be said for white people. The long hair and outrageous outfits might have been "cool" back then, but not now.
Ex-football star Rosey Grier is among the guest stars. Rosey should have stuck to football because he isn't much of an actor, although he's fun to watch as "Salathiel Harms," a bounty hunter from Los Angeles.
The wildest dude in this episode was crime kingpin (and "Harms" target) "Sylk," played by Bill Duke. You have to see this guy and hear him speak to believe it! Other characters included "Willie 'Shotgun' Baine" (Charles Weldson) and "Delia May" (Dee Timberlake).
The story can be a bit confusing at times but the odd characters in here make it worth watching.
