My cousin and I would play Starsky and Hutch in the back yard. Before we could, we would have to argue over which one of us got to be Starsky, since we both thought he was the cool one!
We lived in a suburb of Denver, Colorado at the time the show was on and I'd drive with my mother (in a white '75 Gran Torino!) every few weeks to Golden, Colorado to our bank and to shop. I would often see one of those special model Ford Torinos parked in Golden on the way to the bank. Since I didn't know that Ford had produced such a model, I thought it was the real thing. I looked forward to our trips to Golden so I could see my favorite car!
Though it was my favorite show at the time, I really only remember three things about the show:
1. Starsky firing the warning shot in the opening credits.
2. Huggybear!
3. That car!
