I've barely made it through a disc from each set, so there is plenty of time for me to flip flop in my assessments. I love Kojak and was thrilled to see Shout pick up the series. I will still be up for more seasons of it (but will be passing on the later movies) because I have fond memories of re-discovering the show on vacation in the late 90s- and getting hooked on it. I haven't been able to see it again since. PS just caught me off guard. The downbeat endings combined with the anthology nature make it seem refreshing to me when viewed in a context of the more formula cop shows from that era. I also haven't watched much network stuff since the early 80s- so HSB, NYPD Blue, Law & Order etc, and the rest are not my frame of reference. I should also say that, despite my criticism of Spellings stuff, I have quite a bit of it on my shelves. I regard much of it as crap now, but it's slickly produced (crap), and sometimes it fits the bill-just like fast food.
