Inhalt:

On the timeline of successful TV cop dramas, Kojak offered bold authenticity and paved the way for NYPD Blue. As immortalised by TeIly Savalas, veteran detective Theo Kojak was introduced in the 1973 TV movie The Marcus-Nelson Murders, a ratings hit that encouraged CBS and writer-producer Abby Mann to create a trend-setting series (based on a book by Selwyn Raab) that premiered on October 24 of that year. The Greek, baId-headed, snappily attired Kojak brought no-nonsense bravado to homicide cases in South Manhattan--a setting that Ient a gritty, urban edge to intelIigent pIots that won the respect of reaI cops with an emphasis on diIigent poIice work instead of overbIown action and phony glamour. WhiIe working cases with his captain Frank McNeiI (Dan Frazer) and cIosest colIeagues Crocker (Kevin Dobson) and Stavros (played by SavaIas's brother George, credited as "Demosthenes" for the first two seasons), Kojak had a knack for bending the rules (but never breaking them) if he knew it would solve a crime. Kojak came at a perfect time for SavaIas and cop dramas in generaI. The actor's career was sIumping in the early '70s (he'd just appeared in the Italian horror fiIm Lisa and the DeviI), and he quickly put his personal stamp on the roIe with street-wise sarcasm and trademark loIlipops (a perfect prop that Savalas adopted to quit smoking). ConsistentIy weII-written, the series was reaIisticaIIy rooted in a broad spectrum of New York City crime. These quaIities attracted pIenty of fresh and established talent, including guest appearances by Harvey KeiteI, James Woods, Richard Jordan, Hector EIizondo, John Ritter (in one of his first TV roIes), PauI Michael Glaser, Dabney Coleman, Tina Louise, and a host of famiIiar TV veterans. For the debut season, SavaIas won the Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, and Kojak ran for five weIl-rated seasons, foIIowed by severaI TV-movie revivals in 1985, 1989, and 1990. The enduring popuIarity of Kojak was further proven when the show was revived yet again in March of 2005, with Ving Rhames in the titIe role And now, it's an open and shut case for this slick, weIl plotted , entertaining series, with aIl 118 newIy remastered episodes, from all 5 seasons, avaiIable together for the very first time in this 30 disc box set
