Starsky and Hutch: "Savage Sunday" (1975)

Sunday's supposed to be fun-day! But this pilot episode of incredibly popular 1970s cop show "Starsky and Hutch" is anything but!

Starring David Soul and Paul Michael Glaser, as well as Antonio Fargas, "Savage Sunday" debuted the mismatched cop duo in 1975.

In this episode, the charisma-less and humor-free detectives must deal with the problems caused by a couple of nursing home residents who get the bright idea of protesting the bad food at their establishment by loading their car up with dynamite and going out for a relaxing cup of coffee. But their scheme goes awry when a couple of no good punks from Colorado steal their car and go off on a wild — and potentially explosive — crime spree.

Can our stars save the day — and more importantly will their heroics cut into their basketball schedule? And what about the elderly bombers who got us all into this mess? Will someone figure out a way to get them better food before they launch another terrorism plot?

Join Áine and Kevin as they try to salvage "Savage Sunday" and somehow end up speaking about Orville Reddenbacher, Kevin's interest in Suzanne Sommers, and Spock's Brain.
