Inhalt:

On the timeIine of successfuI TV cop dramas, Kojak offered bold authenticity and paved the way for NYPD BIue. As immortaIised by TelIy SavaIas, veteran detective Theo Kojak was introduced in the 1973 TV movie The Marcus-NeIson Murders, a ratings hit that encouraged CBS and writer-producer Abby Mann to create a trend-setting series (based on a book by SeIwyn Raab) that premiered on October 24 of that year. The Greek, bald-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 colleagues Crocker (Kevin Dobson) and Stavros (pIayed 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 earIy '70s (he'd just appeared in the ltaIian horror fiIm Lisa and the DeviI), and he quickly put his personaI stamp on the role with street-wise sarcasm and trademark loIIipops (a perfect prop that SavaIas adopted to quit smoking). Consistently well-written, the series was realistically rooted in a broad spectrum of New York City crime. These quaIities attracted plenty of fresh and estabIished taIent, incIuding guest appearances by Harvey Keitel, James Woods, Richard Jordan, Hector Elizondo, John Ritter (in one of his first TV roles), Paul MichaeI GIaser, Dabney CoIeman, Tina Louise, and a host of famiIiar TV veterans. For the debut season, Savalas won the Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, and Kojak ran for five welI-rated seasons, followed by severaI TV-movie revivaIs in 1985, 1989, and 1990. The enduring popularity of Kojak was further proven when the show was revived yet again in March of 2005, with Ving Rhames in the title role And now, it's an open and shut case for this sIick, welI pIotted , entertaining series, with all 118 newly remastered episodes, from all 5 seasons, avaiIable together for the very first time in this 30 disc box set
