Starsky and Hutch - Trivia
. Originally banned by the BBC, the episode "The Fix" was first shown on British television on 31 May 1999 on Channel 4 as part of a Starsky and Hutch theme night.
. Inspired by the same two undercover NYC detectives that also inspired the film The Super Cops (1974).
. According to the episode "Shootout", Detective Starsky's full name is "David Michael Starsky" (Hutch was Ken Hutchinson).
. Ford Motor Company actually marketed around 1,000 special edition Gran Torino hardtops during the 1976 model year with the Starsky and Hutch paint job - the shape of the white stripe was not the same as the TV cars; sadly, the Torino was redesigned for 1977 as the LTD II, with the station wagon the only sole survivor.
